Ask Gus

Gus is our resident expert on the Rascal. A customer since 2005, Gus has logged 80,000+ miles with his Rascal and hardly ever leaves it home – even when running a simple errand in town. If you have a question about the Rascal and how your bike may interface with it, just ASK GUS!

Jarrod (Santa Fe, NM) – Do you think the Rascal does better with 12” or 13” tires?

Funny you ask, Jarrod…

I’m not sure if I met you in my travels or not, but I have had both sized tires.  Originally, in ’05 the Rascal had 12” tires on it.  As far I knew, it was normal, but I did notice it was a little bumpy.  In ’06 I had my Rascal overhauled and upgraded to 13” – while it looked much larger, it also towed much smoother.  I know the company dropped 12” tires right around that same time.  In a car or on a cycle, the same holds true…

Yours,

Gus
