Will 24 inch rims go on a giant stp2?
Not really. The ones I can see all have rim brakes, and if you switch from 26 inch to 24 inch wheels the brakes will no longer reach. But it looks like the frame and fork can take disc brakes, so if you're willing to switch brakes as well (or ride brakeless) then you're good to go.
How can I make a wall mirror?

How can I create a bed canopy frame?
To create a bed canopy frame, you can start by gathering materials such as wood or metal rods, a drill, screws, and a canopy fabric. Measure and cut the rods to the desired length for the frame. Use the drill to attach the rods together to form a rectangular or circular shape. Secure the frame to the ceiling or bedposts using screws. Finally, drape the canopy fabric over the frame and secure it in place.
What factors should I consider when buying fixed gear bikes?
When buying a fixed gear bike, consider factors such as frame material, size, gear ratio, brakes, and overall budget. Choose a frame material that suits your riding style, ensure the bike fits you properly, select a gear ratio that matches your riding terrain, decide if you want brakes or prefer a brakeless setup, and make sure the price aligns with your budget.
How can I attach a wood table top to a metal frame effectively?
To attach a wood table top to a metal frame effectively, you can use screws or bolts to secure the wood to the frame. Make sure to pre-drill holes in the wood to prevent splitting, and use washers to distribute the pressure evenly. Additionally, consider using adhesive or brackets for extra stability.
How do you install brakes on a bike?
To install brakes on a bike, you will need to attach the brake calipers to the frame or fork of the bike using bolts. Then, connect the brake cables to the calipers and the brake levers on the handlebars. Adjust the tension of the cables and test the brakes to ensure they are working properly.
What are the different types of road bike brakes available?
The different types of road bike brakes available are caliper brakes, disc brakes, and cantilever brakes. Caliper brakes are traditional and attach to the frame of the bike, while disc brakes use a rotor attached to the wheel hub for better stopping power. Cantilever brakes are less common and are typically found on older road bikes.
How do you install cantilever brakes on a bicycle?
To install cantilever brakes on a bicycle, first remove the old brakes. Then, attach the new cantilever brakes to the brake bosses on the frame. Adjust the brake pads so they are aligned with the rim of the wheel. Connect the brake cable and adjust the tension for proper braking. Test the brakes to ensure they are working correctly.
What are the different types of V brake mounts, clamps, and adapters available for bicycle brakes?
There are three main types of V brake mounts, clamps, and adapters for bicycle brakes: post mounts, stud mounts, and direct mounts. Post mounts attach to the frame or fork with a threaded post, stud mounts use a bolt to attach to a stud on the frame or fork, and direct mounts are integrated into the frame or fork. These different types allow for compatibility with various bike frames and fork designs.
How can I make a bike from scratch?
To make a bike from scratch, you will need to gather materials such as a frame, wheels, pedals, gears, brakes, and a chain. Assemble the frame first, then attach the wheels, pedals, gears, brakes, and chain according to the manufacturer's instructions. Make sure all components are securely fastened and properly adjusted before riding the bike.
How do you set up brakes on a bike?
To set up brakes on a bike, first, attach the brake calipers to the frame or fork. Then, connect the brake levers to the handlebars and the brake cables to the calipers. Adjust the tension of the cables and position of the calipers to ensure the brakes engage properly when the levers are squeezed. Finally, test the brakes to make sure they are working effectively before riding.
