Don't know yet. Had the stock wheel with a 110. Loved it. Then I got enough cash for 21 so I bought it. Now I don't know. I think it's because I'm always around 23, 26 & 30's don't know. If the wheel was centered I'd rock a 140 and be happy

I think the 21 looks good on your bike. That's the only reason I'm considering a 21. I'm just afraid ill get it and wish I had gotn the 23 cause that's just how I am. I'm no mechanic by far but I insist on doing stuff myself and learning as I go and that scares me a lil with the rake I would need to do with a 23. Guess the worst i could do is f it up and try again.

if your interested we do have a wheel exchange program for rocker wheels
powdercoated with little to no wait time
we also have a set of brake calipers,belt pulley if your interested
in getting rid of that awful chrome LOL

Didnt really think about the bars making a difference. Ive ordered a 12" z bar so i guess I will just wait till I get everything on the bike and see how it feels before I will know which set up to go with. One things for sure...first ride is going to be interesting!
