Honest answer is that bigger wheels would probably result in toe clip with the front wheel. Not really good for mountain biking....

Honestly I think the 36er is the "Do all End all" bike. Big wheels roll so well I'm suprise the pro roadies haven't picked up on this.

i'm thinking that if i went through all the thought process/fabrication to make a 39" ss bicycle, i would have given it track dropouts.
