Hey guys...this is my first post. I've been reading some of the advise given in some of these threads and they all sound pretty good so I hope someone can help. I have an FLHRI and I'm thinking about putting a 21" x 3.5" in the front and an 18" x 3.5" in the rear.

Does anyone know any disadvantages about putting the 21" in the front?

Thanks, bee

 

No idea, but

I saw a couple in Laughlin this year. One had a lot of spokes. They were highly modded, but I don’t know exactly what was done up front. My RK has a 1” axle on the front. I haven’t seen a 21” wheel with 1” bearings. You might have to lace a 21” hoop on your hub. I think the fender is high enough.

 

Tube vs Tubless would be an issue for me unless your planning on a 21"
mag of some type or a tubless spoke wheel. IMHO tubeless are safer and the
19 and 16's are a little more stable.....just my .02

 

I was thinking of putting a mag wheel. Does anyone know of any handling issues?
