Yep! Been running it almost a year now. It is a big chunk of meat on there. Rides better than the 120 (had one of those for about 2 years) but you might have issues fitting it under that fender.......

So there is there any difference in the diameter of the mounted 140 tire? I know it is about an inch wider than the 120.

Yes! This is an unmounted 140 next to a mounted 120.....





I can get you measurements when I get home if you need them.

You can run a 140 on a 21x3.5.

I could run it but from the looks of its size I would not have a front fender left. Thanks TX for that pic and congrats on the write up in the mag..
