Take note of the weight of the wheels.

Seems like OP has basic English....don't confuse the bloke (and me) lol.

Are you saying rim size makes no difference to power output or speed....and it was only going faster due to having lighter rims?

I'm going to leave this thread for the experts to comment, cause my sh*t is probably wrong and feeding OP incorrect info :(

P.S. 51lbs 18" rims.....OEM FTL! glad I have my 11kg rims on ;)

yeah but we are talking 18" vs 20"....so your example is too extreme. :stickpoke:

Your example should say what's easier, a popstick or paintbrush....then I will say both. :spoton:

I think I get it though :)
