I love S&M, but that is a NO from me.

The only new school ride ive seen that can carry off tuffs is a floval flyer, and thats probably only because its barely changed in design since the stone age

My friend Jo has one and hers is

Yuk! Hate the look of 24 tuffs on any bike, make them look like an old bone shaker

Nasty. 24 inch tuffs only look right on wheelchairs.

24 inch tuffs. blurgh !

Gish · « **Reply #10 on:** April 28, 2012, 09:12 AM »

putting tuffs on any croozer completely ruins the bike

Jt · « **Reply #11 on:** April 28, 2012, 09:18 AM »

Now wring with tuffs.

On some cruisers they look ace.

Floval being an example.

Nasty on th s&m though.

24" Tuff's about as stable as a Wimpy house build!

He probably only bought the frame because it's from the US of A, and not to do racing on as he says 'I'll switch all the non us parts for us parts as soon as I can'

I Picked up a falcon pro beta 24 this morning (frame, forks and bars) and I also got some black tuffs as part of the deal, remind me not to post my build on here...! Have a good weekend.

dordymush · « **Reply #22 on:** April 28, 2012, 03:24 PM »

iv'e only ever seen 2 bikes that suit the big tuffs and that was a 24" patterson and the big T/A.
alloy hubbed though.
that looks fooking horrible

lk_97 · « **Reply #23 on:** April 28, 2012, 03:45 PM »

I like the wheelset it's self, just not on such a good race bike like that, put them on an 80's cruiser or a re issue one.

Glynnyboy · « **Reply #24 on:** April 28, 2012, 04:34 PM »

Don't think they suit that bike tbh.
For those that don't like tuffs on a cruiser though your nightmares are just around the corner. Roll on the TA release.

I was thinking maybe some of those lovely nice blue ones on but with black tyres. You know just as a hat tipper to the old add.
