I just put a 19" on mine for my off-road wheelset. I put on Shinko 804/805s. I like the way the bike rides with those tires both on and off-road, I like the geometry as my bikes rear was raised with the Progressive shock, I like the extra ground clearance for off-road and I didn't notice any handling issues at highway speeds. It did great in a 140 mile mostly offroad poker ride I did on Saturday with fast 50 mph gravel and sand service roads and some serious singletrack. Stock wheels and tires has a -10.2% speedo error. Stock wheels and Shinko 244's had an -11.7 and now with the 19" and 804 it's -5.6% optimistic. I've corrected this with a SpeedoDRD.
