From: Put your finger on the middle of a map of the USA... Thats me standing next to the COW:) (the cow is my sister)

Bikes: Schwinn Stingray 5sp, Phillips 20, 24"Dyno GT, Raleigh 20, Scott MTB, and a lot more that I dont want the wife to know about!

You guys also be well aware that the WIDTH of your rim and tire in the rear is going to be one of the largest obsticles to be aware of. You would have to look at narrow rims ANd tires for this mod or maybe spread your seat stays towards the top. With a larger rear hub, you will gain some width, but not a ton so just measure and measure again. I recently cut out my brake bridge, and this is a really tempting mod

I think some one has already mention the width issue, but its worth mentioning again.

Lil' Pix... That is a flippin Mean lookin' Puddle Jumper you made there... I really wish Raleigh was lookin at some of your ideas. they'd definitely raise some eyebrows...


R-20 : Your mind is its only limitation...

come check the progress...
