I know that Bushhog will have the answer on this. I understand that the difference in tire weight on a 29.5 vs a 31 is only 1.7 lbs. I figured that was because the 31 was in a 14" and the 29.5 was in a 12". If that's the case, why doesn't hl make the 29.5 in a 14". I love mine regardless but it seems that if the 29.5 would be lighter on a 14" thus making it even better.

Believe it or not, it's mainly about getting floor time at the factory. I'm not saying we have a 29.5 in a 14" in developement, just that it is super hard to get anything new built. However, things may change in the future. I truly can't say.

thanks for the info Dan. I might have waited knowing that but it's all good anyway.
