Hi, I'm posting this for a mate. He has a 1990 KDX 200 that has a 19" rear wheel. Like most of us he wants to ride some of the events that require a rear trials tyre but we can't find one. Does anyone know of an 18" wheel that fits this bike or any other solution. Many thanks, Rob.
Be carefull alot of 19in so called trials tyres are speedway tyres look sim dont exact perform the same though , hard side walls not what you want for trials work ? :

The KDX normally has an 18 inch rear. Sounds like someone's put the rear from a KX in it.
KDX rear wheels often appear on eBay, although some want silly money. Disc braked KDX200 rear wheels interchange more readily than older drum braked ones.
I've a brand new 3.50 x 19 unused trials tyre just removed from the rim of my spare wheel as I have a trials trye on my 18" rim and a spare enduro tyre now on the 19" rim. I believe they are made in short batches mostly for classic trials bikes by Ensign - It was an ebay purchase for £60 with delivery will to let it go for £35, I'm in torquay 01803 690633
