dansharpy Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Ok, so the missus just brought me a trials frame (under my guidance!!) for me to get back into riding again. However i forgot to find out which size wheels fit! I know the front forks fit a 26" wheel but i dont know what fits on the back. Basically the distance from the dropouts to the rear wishbone (?) is a touch over 14", does this mean it is likely to fit a 26" wheel on the back as well? Would it be easier if i uploaded a pic of what i am measuring? As far as i know the frame is from www.bikes4trials.com and is a Base trials jump bike frame. The missus got it off ebay here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/180718777113?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649#ht_500wt_1156 If anyone could let me know which sort of wheel i should get for it i would be most grateful!! Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WIGAN ?? Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 if the chainstays are about 14 inch, x2= 28 inch - about 2 inch for the tyre and thats 26 inch so yeah its a 26 inch frame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 The 26" takes the tyre into account, but yeah the Base will be a 26" frame and are great for some short flicky fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
