so far it feels pretty good. 32 is as big as i'm going, might even drop back down to 28, but i haven't tried larger than those. thanks for the feedback.

How far do you have to move your rear wheel to get the 16t in compared to the 20? I've got some fattty fat wheels and mine are already halfway in the dropouts.
How is the scrambler treating you? I just ordered one for new build. Also have you tried to fit fatter tires on?
I like your build, especially the brake.
