The diameter of the wheel is obviously 2" smaller but one a tire is added it will most likely be almost the same. Of course it really depends on the size of tire you plan on running. What kind are you running now and on the back?

Can you further define the 'problem' with the handling?

He wants to take the 21" front tire off his bike and swap it out for a 19" tire. And is trying to figure out if this will affect the way his bike handles or if it will be fine. He has already swapped out his rear for an 18" tire.
I don't see what is so hard to follow by his post.
I think you will be fine doing this

I am curious why someone would change to smaller wheels. Looks? If you are going with a smaller diameter wheel and tire will it be wider? Just curious.
