I bought a 36" wheel set from Coker, and tried to adjust a cantilever frame to fit them. It looked ugly. viewtopic.php?f=21&t=67526
I came up with a different idea. I have this idea to make one of my Science frames for it, enlarged to fit the wheels. The thought is, from a distance, it looks like any other of my 26" bikes, but as you get close... well, then scale comes in to play.
I started by using 1 1/2" tubing, instead of the 1" I normally use, and then I went to work today.
I keep telling myself that my next bike won't be stretched, so that i'll have a bike that fits on my car's bike rack, but no, I keep building long bikes anyway.
