I actually like wider tires. However, the guys/girls I ride with all rock adult BMX 29ers and the roll out is so much faster. Only way I can stick with them is two speed power and a faster rolling tires like these. I refuse to break down and spend big big money on cookie cutter bikes....IDK, maybe I am just cheap

Finished ;-)
Super smooth riding bike. My son loves it!
I did not get to use the Izumi chain (116) I didn't take into account this extended (slightly foot forward) area.
Came out great! My son didn't like the BMX style bars ;-( I went back to the original bars.
Quick neighborhood cruise this afternoon. I'll take it out tomorrow to sort out any issues.
