Just plain stupid... Nothing says "Look at me, I'm am idiot" like a wheel that doesn't belong on a touring bike... Just my 2 cents..

Na, apes are classic.

If you start seeing apes so high that your hands are way above your head, then you've got a point, though.

i watched a youtube video of a bagger with the 30" front wheel and the bike looked okay in a way, but it seems that the whole function of the bike would be for show, rather than having being truly useful. each to their own though.

+1. to each their own. i like black and red. so i made my bikes black and red. i dont care for chrome, so i powder coated all of it, yes, black or red..... some people prob think that my bikes are ugly, well, dont f*cking look at it then. it is mine. it is the way i want it. go get your own, and make it look like a jap cruiser, or a space ship, or a surf board. i dont give a f*ck. but i take someone talking smack about my ride to be pretty disrespectful. maybe it is just plain old ***** envy, or resistance to change. if you dont like it, look the other way. i if dont like your ride, guess what, i ll look the other way.
