i was joking. 48x18 is 70.2 or something, 48x17 is like 74.2. I'll take the 17 skid patches vs. 3 and mash a bit more if need be, but i really don't expect it to change my riding much.

If i build up a new rear like i was planing over the winter, i'm gonna do a fixed/fixed phil with a 14t on the other side (90 inches!)
