16" trials uni's would be AWESOME. If you had a good wheelset that
wouldnt break and a nice 2.5 tire on there you would be able to jump to
the moon!

If you take the tire off you can use a screwdriver to tighten the spoke
nipples. It's also a lot easier because you dont have to think
sdrawkcab.

ya that would be awsome. Get some 80mm cranks Do they make
shorter cranks? I bet you could fit a 28 spoke rim to a 48 0r 36 spoke
hub.

lol
i have fitted a 48 hole rim to a 36 hole hub, but i don't suggest doing
it...it might be easier the other way arount too
... hmm
if you have 24 holes in one side of the hub and 18 holes in one side of
the rim... you have 6 extra holes, so you skip every 4th hole...

Well, if you're not going to roll anywhere why not just screw the wheel
and get a broken pogo stick?

Yes it is 'possible, but not easy'
(http://www.sheldonbrown.com/mismatch/index.htm). Also requires four
different spoke lengths!

Look around for rhynolites or alex DM24's, both are made in 16'' but I
can only seem to find 28h.
