Hey all, I have a friend who is realy short (4 foot 7 inches) and rides a 16 inch. He realy likes trials, but the U-levels used to rate trials courses are based on someone more average size, so I scaled down the levels to fit a 16 inch wheel, instead of a 20 inch. I thought I would post it here just incase anyone else was looking for somthing similar. So here it is---

It is supposed to have a chart. I wrote it in a different program, but for some reason the cart didnt show up when I transfered it. It was basicaly the U-system with everything multiplyed by .8 and then rounded to the nerest inch (or 1/4 of a foot for gaps and drops over 2 feet) sorry about that, I still can't seem to get it to work. I guess I will just write it out. U-0 <4’’ sidehops <8’’ drops U-1 8’’ sidehops 16’’ drops 9 ½’’ wide beams U-2 12’’ sidehops or rolling hops 20’’ drops 7 ¼’’ wide beams U-3 16’’ sidehops or rolling hops 3 foot drops to easy terrain 4 ¾’’ wide beams 2 ½ foot gaps between easy landings Seat out in front hoping and dropping U-4 24’’ pedal grabs 19’’ sidehops and rolling hops 4 foot drops 3 foot gaps between easy landings Seat out in front requiring accuracy U-5 30 inch hops with odd landings 3 foot drops to odd landings 4 ¾ foot drops 4 foot gaps Rolling hops onto odd surfaces <30’’ pedal grabs on less than ideal surfaces U-6 24’’ sidehops or rolling hops 5 ½ foot drops 4 foot drops requiring precision Requiring 2 hard moves in a row U-7 28’’ sidehops or rolling hops 32’’ pedal grabs Pedal grabs that go to rubber on odd surfaces Multiple hard moves in a row Riding straight smaller than tire width U-8 Same as U-7 but bigger moves or moves requiring greater precision

When I first read the title of this thread, I thought you were referring to 'Leona Helmsley' (http://www.who2.com/leonahelmsley.html), the "Queen of Mean", an obnoxious rich person who is notorious for saying that only the "little people" pay taxes.
