I was browsing the '3G Bikes' (3gbikes.com3gbikes.comOpen ↗) web
site and saw that they have a new tire called the 'Twenty-G'
(tinyurl.com2xj2cOpen ↗). It's a 20" version of the 'Hoggy-
G' (unicycle.comshopexd.aspOpen ↗). A
nice fat slick 20" tire. It looks like it's the same width
as the 24" Hoggy-G. That would make it just slightly less
wide than a Monty trials tire. The
3.45" measurement on the sidewall of the tire is a bit of a
marketing exaggeration. It's still a wide tire, but it's
not 3.45".
I don't have a 20" unicycle that would fit the Twenty-G,
otherwise I'd try it out. Someone is going to have to try
it. It looks like it would be a good tire for a 20" street
unicycle. It might be good for street style riding. The 20"
size would give you a little more speed and flow than the
Monty and the 20" size might be a better fit for 140 mm or
150 mm cranks.
