My old van has 16 inch wheels on it, and i just know the rolling resistance is too much- prolly why gas mileage isn't up to par with the new ones. I looked at vans with 20's one'em, but the spin weight on those is so heavy, it just takes too much to accellerate, causing mileage to suffer.
So I bought a van with 18 inch wheels. perfect.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!
This is all funny, but I gotta go ride...

Perhaps Mielke and I are the only ones who looked at this quote for what it was: a humorous statement by an bicycle manufacturing engineer venting his frustration with the demands of fickle consumers. Leave it to the zealot masses to turn it into armor for a holy war campaign to support their claims of wheel superiority.

Naaah- Mielke is a 29er fanboy, so whenever he starts bashing other wheel sizes I try to poke him in the eye with a stick...
I asked if he had any vans I should look at, and no kidding, he told me all his vans were 29ers so i wouldn't want them! Dood, we've been having fun with this for years- it's all good. Forum stuff reads harsher than it realy is..

I didn't bash another wheel size, the dude from Santa Cruz did.
