Just got a bargain NS Holy for the eldest FlyingOx Jr but it's slightly too big for him in terms of standover. I know he'll grow into it eventually but was wondering if it's possible to get a rim brake adapter to allow 20" wheels on it?

Surely the pedals would keep smashing into the ground?

22" wheels might be an option for a less drastic geo change. There are a few companies doing 22" stuff now

It's got 4 1/2" clearance at bottom of the pedal stroke right now so would be reduced to around 2 1/2". He's picked up the whole "outside pedal down" thing pretty quick so I'm hoping it won't cause too much of a problem.
