I saw this guy riding a road bike on the shoulder area today, he was about 6 foot two. He looked like a bear on a bike at the circus because the wheels looked so small. My idea: 32" rims and tires for road bikes of course, a frame overhaul is in order. The goal: Bike goes faster, climbs better
Could it have been one of them tri bikes sporting 650 wheels? I've seen some smaller women on them and even they look odd ;-O
well I think 36" is way too big, 32" is more a size that will be accepted and could handle corners better than a 36", plus it will be welcome on the Tour, worldwide racing as well...as for the biker I saw, no it was a 700cm rim, it was on a Trek and the guy was dolled up in some kit. I just wish I had $$$ to throw around building a prototype 32" bike
