I have the 2007 torker dx frame. Which has loads of clearance. So I could swap my 19" rim with my sisters 20" rim and get a 20G tyre!😄 I think I should do this. Could I use the same spokes on each rim? or would I have to get brand new ones? Oh and can anyone show me some good wheel building tutorials?

Get new spokes. I said a while ago the 07 dx frame was probably the only one that would fit the twenty G. The onza might because that looks like it has a lot of clearance. You cannot use the same spoke length for a trials and 20" rim, it won't fit. What kind of 20" rim is it?

Can I use the spokes from the 20" rim I got? Its my sisters LX rim. When I rode the lx I thought the rim was all right. I didn't have a real trials tyre and had [censored] roll out so mine flatspotted. But she hardly uses hers. How does that tyre work spencer? I would think pretty good. For most street riding you want to hop directly onto anything so grip isn't important.

I haven't really ridden the twentyG much. If you are going to relace it you should use a rim stronger than the LX. The hubs are probably not the same dimensions.
