Carlperkins Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 ok so we all know that 26" forks with disc mounts can be used on a 24" bike etc.. so my question is can a 26" disc frame be used with 24" wheels? or will there be a big gap between the tyre and frame etc? carl.

isitafox Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 There won't be that big a gap but the bottom bracket will be very low. Matt Vandart ran his planet x zebdi with 24" wheels I think, might be worth asking how he got on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrialsIsHard Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 The geometry would be the same just the whole bike would be 2 inches closer to the ground? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted April 7, 2012 Report Share Posted April 7, 2012 The geometry would be the same just the whole bike would be 2 inches closer to the ground? Wouldn't that be a 22" wheeled bike then? muhahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
