21" wheel pic help.
Also, i had a guy tell me he's not going with a 21" front because the tire is way too narrow...
the tire that fits onto the 21x3.5 front wheel is approximately 1/2" 'thinner' than a stock tire. That's right, one-half of an inch. A quarter inch (1/4) on each side. How do i know? Because i held the stock one up to the new one and checked. I think my bike rides better since the new wheel and monotubes lowered.
It comes down to this: it takes money to play, and the cost of cool aint cheap. Halfassing a job like throwing a 21 on without the money to account for the changes to the suspension or ride height is going to cause negative results.
This is what i have experienced with my own two eyes/hands/ears/etc. so while it may be my opinion, it's not hearsay.
