For handling, wouldn't an 18" front wheel be better than a stock 19" wheel (an easy swap for spoked wheels)? Perhaps, the difference is too small to be noticed. Has anyone tried an 18" front wheel in combination with an 18" stock rear wheel? I thought two 18" wheels would look better too. Almost all modern bikes roll on 17" rubber front and rear (the best compromise for handling and stability, apparently). 18" sounds like a reasonable compromise.
