Default ideas on extending rear tire

why do you want to extend your swing arm ? is it because you thinkit looks cool or maybe you are more of a go straight fast person? extending your swing arm if your a canyon carver will mess you up. it takes away the natural handling of these bikes. i can understand if you are going straight,draggin or even showing it. but as atwisty rider it would suck .

this bike seems to short. even an extra 2 or 3 inches would suit me fine. I just like the way it looks

to short? extending the swingarm wont make anymore room for the rider. They are short so they can turn quicker. But each their own, they have kits galore out there, just google it.
