Smo™ Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 Just wondering who's got the longest bike on here? I measured my Pitbull yesterday and was shocked to find out it has a wheelbase of 1102 :- So to get the ball rolling; Zoo! Pitbull 04 (1090) + Echo Urbans - 1102 Wheelbase.

Smo™ Posted December 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 Probs be who ever has a vinco ← Yeah probably, but then again I was quite surprised that my Pitbull was so long. There may be longer :- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Hardman Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 (edited) Either my eyes are damaged or my tape measure is wrong but my python is 1065 :S ← Sounds about right Oh and my Monty is 1020 which scares me as it was 990 when I first got it and I havent changed the frame or forks.

Phatmike Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 I think this is turning into a "show your wheelbase" thread, rather than the longest one. :S If you can't beat 1102, don't post. :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thechink Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 (edited) wheel base doesnt make your bike any better. i could have a wheel base of 1065 and have a mega long back end and a mega short front. would feel like shit but it still has a wheel base of 1065. also you can have bent forks or summit. it only means how far you can reach between things. sorry to say this but it gets me annoyed. to me its about geometry of stuff like rear end and front end. thechink Edited December 30, 2004 by thechink 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a little weird t-f thing than a competition. :S I think gay James might've won when he had his (not-so)Tuff-guys on his pure! :S Mike.

thechink Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 fair point. but to me it seems that people buy a bike on its wheel base not its geometry these days. thats all. my wheel base is about 1060 ish with fatties (xtp short) thechink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamHolmes Posted December 30, 2004 Report Share Posted December 30, 2004 Sorry to sound dumb, but what do you measure to get the wheel base, is it the from the back wheel bolt to the front one ? sam :- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never even considered that having a long wheelbase made your bike better, lol. Do you know anyone that judges bikes by their wheelbases instead of their geometry? If so, slap him/her.
