Should be , offer a 20" wheel to it to check fork clearance & rear brake reach .

Then offer a 16" ...........

Any 20" will fit nicely on the Mini Ripper ... I used skinnies on mine with a short reach caliper  :daumenhoch:

Sadly, it's no longer in my collection ... in a moment of madness I let that Ripper go to help build an 84 Haro Sport  :idiot2:
