You could spread the dropouts & install a Gemini wheel. Unless your using a 24" bike or something weird.
Problems with standard sprocket

Or using an aluminum frame since it would probably break apart when spreading the dropouts.

how would I go about spreading the dropouts, I would probably have one gemini on the rear cause its all I can afford then something of decent quality on the front.

Id get thick and slicks for when im racing and maxxiss hookworms for when im riding unless yall have any better suggestions, it would probably be sort of rinky, like a 1.95inch on the front and a 3 inch on the rear
Get a 1' length of 3/8" all thread
Use nuts and washers
Turn with a wrench and spread the frame
Mine were spread by hand with a friend of mine giving me the extra hand to do it...lol.

Couldn't I split the frame? The tires rub up top if I use big 2.5s
Dig out the welder and some good angle iron then because your going to be restrructuring the frame...lol...Cause thats what your gonna need to do if your insisting on using 2.5s...
That's alot of work for some cosmetic tire appeal, If ya go thru the trouble make it fit a 3" tire
Run tires that don't rub on the frame
Will 2.125" fit without rubbing the frame?
