I was wondering what you guys are running up front on the mx setup, 19 or 20 inch tires. Which tire size is better for mx?

I personally like the 19" tires better. Makes the bike a little lower and looks better IMO. The downside to them is that the ride is a little rougher than the 20" tires.

imo the down fall is your quad engine will hit the dirt easier.

engine hit the dirt????? are you high? i guess it could if you had no lower frame tubes or maybe you could take it out and just throw it in the dirt. lol

i like 20's cause it keeps the front of my frame from slamming into the ground

I am guessin he meant the underside of your engine/skid. You could def bottom that out if you overshot a jump and landed in the flat
