Suspension upgrade question

[1olbull]

Correctomento 31.75 cm. But better with 13" (33.0cm) and quite a few specify 34.0cm when ordering custom ones.

Only if you have the inseam for it.
At 29", I do not or they would surely be 13 inchers.

tbh the BT021 has been about a bit. Maybe now only to order? - I paid nowhere near that sort of money. Was way cheaper than METZ or AVON.

I just go to my tyre guy and say - "Victor (for that is his name) I need a tyre for the Rocket". He then asks "What size and make this time?".
But he will always look for the equivalent Bridgestone and he gives me a "regulars" discount.
His dad who is always about and despite being well into his 80's still interested - always comes to see the R3 when I book it in.
They know the bike and see how I leave tyres so adjust their suggestions accordingly.
Yes sometimes they cost a bit more the "WeAreTheCheapest.com"- but I will pay for their service.
