Hmm, that sounds like a good idea. How is the braking power with U brakes?

geometry wouldchange much at all. There may be a small change but
nothing too drastic solong as the 20" fork has similar clearance to
the current 26" one. Don'tforget you would need to move your rear
brake posts to accommodate thesmaller wheel. Also while your moving
brake posts I would seriously suggestputting the front ones on the
back of the fork legs. It makes it easier in anumber of ways, cable
routing etc.Good luck and don't forget to post pic's once it's
done.Paul-----Original Message-----From: bentechriders@yahoogroups.com

considering using dual 406 wheels instead of 26 inch wheels. If
Ichangeand use a 20 inch fork, would that change the steering
geometryeven though I'd be using dual 406s?ThanksSebastian[Non-text
