    Vlad,

    Don't listen to Culcune. We are all very happy you told us about the 21 and 18" wheels!

    Maybe we could organize a group buy for your luggage racks and send them all at the same time.

    How many can you make? Do you do the work yourself?

    Well I was looking for solution to find off-road tyres for 17" rims. You can find rear one but no such size for front. So I decide to replace all set. In Ukraine Qingqi's dealers saling both type of bikes - motard (as I have) and enduro (as CrasyCarl's bike). So I just bought all set with bearings and brake discs (just to sitch its quick if I will need to).

    Yes, I did rear rack myself. I'm an engineer, so I have to know how to work with steel, such as gas cutting and welding. Plus, I like it. I have some equipment in my garage, and if I need something else I go to my father workshop. He is an engineer for 40 years. I will let you know when I will be at home.
    I have one idea to install kick starter on my bike (mine is only with electrical starter). So could someone take a few picture where kick starter is located. I guess I will need to buy a new right side cover and some additinal kick shaft with gears.

    Vlad,
    Does the 21" wheel work well with the front fork?

    Yes it works good. Even when the front fork have a full stroke down I still have a gap between tyre and fender. Well from first day I bought my bike I was planning to have two pair of tyres (off-road and street). Now I have it. And to be honest I think I will not put my street tyre back. I like off-road one more.
