@oxouk4 жыл бұрын
Because the scout bobber sixty is a new model, RC Components may not have a rear wheel to match your front, so you may have to buy both. Keep in mind my front wheel is stock 16", some people put an 18 on the front to match the rear. I personally don't like that look. As far as my front suspension, I just have 32mm Bikers Choice shorty's on the forks. If you don't get the short ones, they'll look all bunched up like an accordion.

@oxouk3 жыл бұрын
A lot of people ask me about the handling with these tires. Being wider, requires you to put a little more effort into cornering, but it's minimal. I can't speak on handling in the rain, because I don't ride in the rain. Keep in mind that there is a lot of curvature in the 240 rear tire, so there is still plenty of grip when dry cornering. As far as the looks, it's a no brainer. I get paid compliments on my bike everywhere I go, and being a gear head, I'll talk your ear off. All in all, worth the investment.

I definitely have a question. I am going to a 180 rear tire on a wheel I purchased from RC Components… the Patriot Eagle Eclipse wheel 16 x 5.5 specifically. The problem it seems is that there isn’t enough clearance between the inner wheel and the rotor to put the caliper back on the rotor. I am almost inclined to take the back pad off of the rotor to see if that better allows me to put the caliper back on the rotor. Then I would hope that I can re-install the back pad onto the wheel. Did you need to do anything similar to get your rotor back onto the caliper?
