mark145 Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Hi The main question i have is would any 19" rim fit on a Onza T-Vee bike. I would also like to know if anyone has done this succesfully. If this was to work would i need Maguras due to being able to adjust them more. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The lemonade man Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 No, it wouldn't. Do a search, there's like 100 topics on this. You're brake would not fit on the rim unless you fancy welding some mounts on.Not even a magura. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euro Braker Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 You could make a disc mount for a 19" wheel or you could get a better frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurtisRider Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 everybody seems to forget that with a quick bit of hacksaw work and a file, you can cut the dropouts a tad deeper so the wheel goes further in soooorted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark145 Posted August 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Thanks for the replies, the only reason i asked is that there isn't really a big range of wide 20" tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel G Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Thanks for the replies, the only reason i asked is that there isn't really a big range of wide 20" tires.thats becasue a t-vee is the cheepest trials bike u can by brand new der ment to be less hasel than the other mods but also more basic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashby-trials Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 My friend did it, it worked well all he had to do was just adjust the maguras and the job was a good one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunn_bmixx Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 search through the topics as i remember this guy who had a really nice monty 26" but had a smaller wheel i think. Anyway the point is on there was a guy who can build the convertors that bolt into your old mounts to creat new mounts. I cant rerember the name of the topic but i will have a look for you to see if i can find it.hope this helpsIan B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
