Re: Do all 20 inch unis have 19 inch rims, or just some of them?

[Skippii]

Mostly, I'm interested in knowing if the torkers do.
Am I correct in assuming that 20-inch BMX tires don't fit on most
20-inch unicycles?
And how do you know if a 20 inch tire is supposed to fit on a 20-inch
rim or a 19-inch rim?

The torkers have real 20" rims. All 20" bmx tires will fit on 20"
rims.Its the trials tires that only fit 19" rims.A trials tire will not
fit the torker 20" rim.BMX tires will.

You have to be careful when you say thing like that. Remember that Alex
and Arrow make many models of rims. They make both 19 inch Mod rims and
normal 20 inch rims used for BMX, kid's bikes, and recumbents.

The Alex DX 32 and the Aarow DHX are available in 19 inch Mod Rims.
