  19. Ah ok cheers guys i'm running 40 rear and 30 front and it feels ok if any one is near llangollen north wales drop me a pm there is some awesome stuff to ride around hear
  20. Hey guys my mod bike is almost finished i'm just wondering what pressure the tyres should be there both 20" if that makes any difference
  21. oh right what will happen will it rip etc i was thinking about loads of lube and a good set of tyre leavers
  22. Hey guys can you get a "19 tyre on to a 20" tyre rim ???
  23. but both rims are 16 1/2 inches so I'm guessing there the same size tyre to ? i have ordered a maxxis creepy crawler "19x2.25 if it don't fit I will stretch it lol and in the pic you can see that the rear rim is smaller than the front. ok i have just tried the front on the rear rim and it was mega tight to get on so its deffo a 20 inch rim so next question is will a "19 tyre fit my rim or have a wasted £15 ??? thinking back i'm sure i put my rear tyre on a bmx ?? how stupid am i
  24. Hey guys right my bike is a mod bike like a t bird but its got a little seat and i'm running shimano v brakes front and rear and the tyres looked exactly like the pic above !!
