Wheel sizes

[Harty]

Can someone please confirm if the Xcountry wheels are the same size in diameter and width as the Xchallenge?

Cheers

Nope.....................XCountry 19/17 & XChallenge 21/18

Suspension travel is about 2" less on a XCountry (at both ends)

Cheers Johnny I don't suppose you know if they are interchangeable i.e. the Challenge wheels going onto the Country?

Of course they are, need a new front mudguard though and you still won't have the same suspension travel as a XChallenge
