Big wheel or small wheel pitbike??
Looking at pitbikes for an 11 year old. We will be riding trails, around here there it's a lot of sugar sand and tree roots. Just wondering if the big or small wheels have any pros or cons so i can decide which to order.

Big and wide are my tire/wheel preference for sand. Is said child tall enough for a bike with larger wheels and higher seat height? Do you have a specific bike in mind?

Jstaguy24,
Here in Michigan we have many miles of trails that are sandy and with roots. The larger diameter front the better. I would go with the DBX-18 with the 14-17 The problem maybe the seat height for him. Also maybe look at the RPS Viper with 16-19 and a seat height of 32.5. I have lowered 2 Vipers for customers that are what megadan says are SmurfsI like that megadan, Smurfs and Sasquatch. And now I am building one with 18-21 for someone that is close to a Sasquatch Last edited by rideMI; 05-04-2018 at 09:01 PM. |
