BTW, does the center stand work with the 21" wheel? Or are both wheels now touching the ground?
I did bypass the mud, where possible. However, the elevated, rough terrain by the side of the road sometimes makes it mandatory to traverse the mud. I frequently ride over muddy roads in the spring and fall, so I have a pretty good idea when I can trust the tires, and when I cannot.

The center stand works with the 21-inch front wheel, but you must place a board beneath the two legs of the center stand. If you do this, the center stand still lofts the rear wheel, and performs the same as it did with the 18-inch front wheel. I am going to weld two steel pads to the legs of the center stand.
