I want to do the 21 up front raise the fender mod but I am lowered in the back 1.5 and have 39" cholos. wondering how much lower in the back the bike will get by raising the front. Or better question what does the 21 up front raise the bike. I could shim up the bike if I know the hieght change to see the difference in the back.

 

Why would putting a bigger front wheel lower the bike's back? More load on the shock?

 

I just figured it would raise the front a abit but what your saying makes sense.

 

It won't lower the back but it may get the tips of the Cholo's closer to the ground by and inch or so. Say the distance between the tips to the rear axle is half the distance between front and rear axles and the 21" brings the front up 2" it would put the tips half that distance closer to the ground but the distance between the rear tire and fender won't change.

 

awesome thanks. I may adjust the difference at the triple tree or progressive springs to lower the front. all depends on the cholo tip height. having a tough time at the moment finding a rim that doesnt bust the budget wide open.

 

I want to do a 21 on the front of mine and when I get ready I'll look for a wideglide or blackline black rim to match the back. The price of some wheels are ridiculously out of my affordability.

 

 

I am using a 2011 oem fatboy fender in denim black from a member here. It is the look I was after. I also grabbed a 21" 3.5 from a member here who had it on his slim but changed the look of his bike so I grabbed it. It came from paucho and is black rim chrome spoke. 80 spoke.

 

That’s awesome!!! Would love to see some pics when you install them.
