Supermoto

How hard would it be to get a smaller front wheel for my china bike. I like the looks of some of these supermoto bikes. All my miles are on asphalt anyway. I know its easy to find tires.

You might need to use you hub and have a new wheel laced up. I don't know if the spoke length is known for different sized wheels.

Also some of the smaller china bikes may be the answer.

Some of the 200's come with 19" fronts. This would be close. Otherwise you would have to do as suggested before and lace up an 18" hoop with your existing hub.

Check out my gallery. I went the easy way and just found street rubber for the 21" and 18" stock rims.

Plenty of available street tires or 90/10 dual sport tires.

I would look at a local dealer and see if some of the smaller bikes come with a 19" wheel.
