i'm probably gonna do the same on my heritage,&nbsp\\; from what I hear you pretty much have to go +4" on everything.&nbsp\\; I'm probably going to do 13's on mine though,&nbsp\\; bit cheaper than the wild1s

Cool,&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; the seat is a stock heritage seat that has been recovered.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; I love it!&nbsp\\; But this winter i'm sending it out to Allen at Mean City Cycles to have him make it more comfy for me!!
