It doesn't matter how much you beg, I'm not going to explain the
effects of
vibrational frequency on traction as regards rubber tires beyond
saying that, when the vibration stops, you're about to crash.

Right. So all small-wheeled bikes are dangerous.
Do you have a minimum size that you consider to be safe? If so, what? We
need to know.

I thought that was your 'thing'. No, come on, this being a tech forum,
we really need to know what 'moderate sized wheels' are. What diameter?
Because obviously we don't want to be unsafe, do we?

27" rims are generally safe!
;-)
- Bigger wheels don't fall into big pot-holes as badly as small ones.
- Smaller wheels give better acceleration. ;-)
- Smaller wheels have less gyroscopic effect. (rider/bike stability)
most other effects relate more to suspension than size.
