Now in a fit of madness and irrationality i have bought a Lo Pro.

I have all the bits I need for a nice build, except s front wheel.

Question: Can I use an front MTB wheel?

And before the flamin starts I have UTFS and Google.

Any help appreciated.

I don't see why not.

Very much depends on your fork but I'd say no.

mtb wheels are 26", you'll want a 650 for the lo pro.

Assuming that the fork is for a 650c, you should be alright with a 26" MTB wheel.

Oh, and good luck building those mice :)

Can work. Honest.

As far as I know there isnt much of a difference between the two, only thing there is more choice when it comes to 26", you can get right down to 1" tyres.

Thanks guys, I have a couple of 26x1" gatorskins. I'll let you know how it goes.

The mice will be happy.

Good luck! And don't forget to post a pic up in the Lo Pro thread when finished.
