Default 21” front wheel

Curious, gonna be or thinking of dropping a 21” front wheel on my 2021 fatty. I know with the twincams you can get fender risers. So will a 21” fit with the standard fender or do i need a fender lift and if so do we know where i can get them, been searching but cnt find only for touring models. Thnx

If you're going from a 16" you'll need a lift.

See if you've got an inch and a half of extra clearance.

I would look for a different fender. A 21" is not going to look right with a FB stock front fender. They are too wide IMO.
