I'm sure it's been done but...

Has anyone put a 20" wheel on the back of a 26" cruiser with, maybe, a 24" front wheel? Seems like it with have a wild rake if one could still pedal it! Any pics? Just trying to think outside the box.

[Turtlesixfour]

Maybe with apes? Why not? It's done all of the time with murdercycles! Thought it would be cool to see it in pedal fashion.

With 26" front... http://www.forum.freakbikenation.com/ph ... =17&t=3313

i've had 20's front/rear on 26 frames.

I've ran 20's front and rear on a 26" frame just had to use shorter crank arms and change sprocket size to make up for arms

I had a 26" frame that I put 16's on front and back but I had a crazy extended fork to compensate for the extreme drop.

Do you have a link to a pic of that bike? I know a 20" rear wheel is the easy way out. Happen to have more 20" rear wheels laying around than a good 26" wheel with a coaster brake.

I threw a 20 on the back of an old 26" girls frame, and a 24 on the front for riding with my daughter. She goes so slow with her training wheels this works for me.

[Turtlesixfour]

Should i through training wheels on it? Just kidding.

[Turtlesixfour]

Now imagine apes and a paint job. Awesome or Abomination?

[heg_bknucks]

i have raked it kind of a lot so i could get it lower
heres my chopper with a drag bar handle bars

then i made me some custom apes i put on them now not finished with it yet


hope this is helps you

[Turtlesixfour]

Really like the mtn bike handlebars on the chopper! Those apes look great also! Did you use 1" pipe? I think motorcycle bars are 1"pipe and could use motorcycle grips!

I'm not sure about the motorcycles in the U.S., but in Europe, only Harley's have 1" bars. Japanese- and Europe-built bikes have 7/8" bars (as far as I know).
