I found after purchase that my XS has a 16" rear wheel; correct should be an 18", I believe. Also, the fork tubes were extended. I have replaced the fork tubes with correct length now. How will the 16" rear wheel work with this front end (stock 19" front wheel)?
If necessary, I would be happy to swap the 16" rear for an 18"; if bike will ride normal with this setup (16"), fine. Just concerned that the bike may sit high/low in the rear due to incorrect wheel. Right now, I have the bike on a stand after doing the forks. I need to replace both tires in any case.
Also, does anyone know what the stock length is for the spring spacer. I am running some of Mike'sXS progressive springs; I cut what looked like about the right size, but am not sure just what the correct length is.
Thanks.
