18" front wheel conversion
« on: March 03, 2013, 04:50:00 PM »
What rims are you guys using for your 18" front conversions? My goal is to lace it up to the narrow glide hub I have on my bike and go down from 19 to 18.

If You can't fix it with a hammer, You've got an electrical problem.

stock k7 rear. I finally got some time to deal with my front end issue, (http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=112538.msg1267808#msg1267808) and I'm taking your idea from that thread and will try an 18" wheel.

here's what the front end looks like now for reference. Picture is a little old, there's progressive suspension on the rear now.
