    Can you wheelie it Mr Carver?

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    I get it! I don't mind it but I don't want one and like Quasi said wouldn't be seen on it.
    There like hot rod cars, it takes a well kinda special person to own and drive them, wots the word??? extrovert, lacking in apendage size. LOFL.

    I say personalise your ride.

    However fitting a super oversize rear tyre to a good handling bike strikes me as rather pointless.

    Consider this:
    Even if you have a really small weanie and are trying to compensate for it, surely the mega big tyre will only make it look smaller! Go for a skinny rear tyre, then when you flop out the undersize passion-rod it will look bigger in comparison.
