Buying an ultimate wheel

24 definately, 26 or 28 are even easier. You want to have the tyre well
up your let to help you hold it streight. The smaller the wheel the
better your pedal pressure control needs to be - 8" is really silly.

What about distance of the pedals from the center [the equivalent of
crank length]? Is longer better? How long is ideal, say, for a 28"?

I would recommend the equivelant of 150mm cranks

My 36" ultimate wheel (i took it for 1.5 km today) has the same as 165mm
cranks, and is great.

Judging on the benefits of the 36 over the 24, I'd say get the bigger
wheel.
