:cheers:
It's all good, G. :)

and there's no doubt in my mind that we'll see 22 inch Odyssey tires/rims one day.

G:
Haha, that article is awesome.... Shows how far BMX has come... at least we dont have to worry about what race category it fits into...

The article also mentions having different sized front and rear wheels, something that motorbikes often do (did?) been tried on MTB's too... slightly smaller back wheel would allow shorter stays and front would still monster truck over stuff.... ah the possibilities are endless...

Right I am off to design a mountainbike with a 29" front wheel and 22" rear... ;)

I'll take two.

Damn!

I guess that S&M was almost stolen! Guy broke into the shop that it was at, stole a bunch of S&M parts as well as that bike! As he was leaving the shop, the police dogs caught him. He's in jail now and the bike is safe.

Never should have let it out of my site.....

Love when I find a thread about 22's and my bike has already beaten me to it!  
That '83 article is great, those are the exact tires I have on my ride, the Kenda 22x2 snakebellies -- cool to see what they were on BITD
