  3. The only downsides to the 24" DX is it's a bit heavier than all of the
    other splined Munis and it won't fit a 3" Gaz tire, but it will fit all
    other 3 inchers.

    It does comes with brake mounts though.

    I think the 2007 one should fit the Gazzalodi.

  5. it doesnt

    from uni.com

    Note: this configuration will accept the Duro Wildlife Leopard 24 x 3.0
    tire, which can be ordered separately. The Nokian Gazzaloddi 24 x 3.0
    tire will not fit.

    but, yes it is a great uni

    also, there are about 30 threads on the DX alone, so could you try
    searching please?

    Yes, but the picture is not updated.

    Does the Gazzalodi not fit from height or width?

    Yes what? That doesn't answer my question.

    If the Gazzalodi didn't fit from the height clearance in the 2006 DX,
    then it should fit the 2007, presuming they added more clearance like
    the 20".

  9. lol, that was an 'or' question. If all else fails, get the 24" DX and
    also buy a Nimbus II 26" frame, then you will have no problems with
    tire clearance or anyone saying "your frame is going to break" even
    though the new DX ain't likely to.

  10. I think the DX always had that clearance from when it used to run a 20"
    tire instead of the 19" trials setup it has now, but I'm not sure.

    From the 2006 to 2007 change, they added maybe an inch more clearance
    above the tire on the trials.

  12. Oh, well then that would explain the massive amount of space I have on
    my DX. Man, you could easily fit a 4" wide tire in the trials version!
    If they have that much space on the MUni, then it will easily fit that
    tire.

    Umm, 4" Wide.. no.. but you could fit a much taller tire in the frame.

    A Twenty-G would fit easily.

  14. Lol. exadurated a bit there, sorry. But yeah, the Gazzalodi should fit.
    It all comes down to calling UDC I guess. I havn't seen one of the
    24"-ers first hand, not an '07 at least.

  15. Just dont get a Gazz.

    There are tons of other 3" DH tires you can use, that youll probably
    like more than a Gazz.
