Sleeping Giant

The first two pics against the brick wall give a good view for comparison. Is the current front 24x2?

26x2.125

Looking back at my inspiration pics, one answer is more rake, but that’s not really an option. I don’t want to modify the frame or hunt down new forks with inherent rake.

I really dig the following combination lately : identical size rims with the rear tire 3.0 and the front 2,125.
It also makes the fork optically longer while at the same time reduces the rake.

Maybe it’s time to hit and run some bmx kids so I can get some 24s to try out on the front

No progress on the main event

but I balanced a couple of parts on top of each other to come up with a concept for my wife’s ebike.

(Planning ahead. If I bafang the Giant, I’m gonna have to build her an enike too so she’ll ride with me)

enike

What about a 20" front wheel?

What about a 20" front wheel?

I either want them equal sized or the front larger diameter and skinnier.

holding a 24x3 up to it. i see that it looks pretty good.
Now I gotta find a matching rim or a new set. Then have the hubs laced in

My rat rod enikes

I wish they would make those enikes. They would be my dream shoe. I wear my high tops all the time, and never tie my laces.

they’d need to be self cleaning too
