. . . What selection of tires is available? It looks like dirtmonsters in the pics. I can understand that rims can be made no problem, it probably mainly means re-adjusting of bending radius of extrusion that the rim is made of. But for tires you need completely new mold, which apparently can go up to 10s of K usd.
The bike sounds like a good idea, but until more companies start making 22" tires and rims the idea will go nowhere.
well if you have a 20 inch frame with more than an inch of chainstay adjustment (or enough tire clearance anyway) you could run your current frame and keep the specs except bb height will jump an inch
. . .
Do we really need a 650b-type BMX option? I mean, how disadvantaged do people feel without an option between 20" and 24"?
that looks sweet
too many wheelsizes in the cycling industry though, in my opinion atleast
