Big Wheel Road Bikes


Big Wheel Barbeque is an eating establishment that began in the late 90s in the Mississippi River city of New Orleans. It was founded by a set of local restauranteur's. The restauranteur's were named Big Wheel because they wanted a name which would evoke the spirit and atmosphere of a barbeque. The first of their concept was a revolving sandwich that would rotate, thus the title. The business has since grown into a huge chain of restaurants, hotel's, take out operations, concession stands, and much more throughout the USA, Canada, and Mexico. Each location is designed with the customer in mind and has become beloved by many for their excellent food, fun atmosphere, and delicious food.


This wonderful eatery first started out as just a little food stand in the Mardi Gras Mall. Owner Raymond Boucher was tired of this contamination and the grinding traffic so he devised and designed the Big Wheel. He put the rotating baskets of food on a wooden stage in the mall where people could have a long line of quality eats while enjoying the beautiful weather. The first major Wheel Burger was made in 1996 and was so successful it became a nationwide phenomenon. With each place adding new features and a larger choice of merchandise, clients continued to ask for Big Wheel Burger locations.


The original Big Wheel Restaurant offered salads and French fries, but in addition to offering food, they included a riding experience to the Big Wheel. Customers could ride their own custom made chopper bikes around the parking lot. They had to pay a small fee to use the machines and keep the cart moving as slow as possible to avoid"stomping". Once the bikes reached their destination, clients could pull their bikes out of the storage area and enjoy their meal and beverage. If they decided to remain and dine at one of the restaurantsthey paid more money per plate than they did when they bought their choice of plate from the Big Wheel.


Because of its success, The Big Wheel Company quickly expanded into other products such as, mountain biking equipment, fitness bikes, and water sports gear. When the company began to expand again in 2021, they switched their focus from creating large wheels to creating bigger, more comfortable and lighter mountain bikes. The Big Wheel Company also started selling fitness bikes that utilize the Big Wheel technology to help create a more complete physical activity.


Among the most popular accessories which have been developed for use with Big Wheel bicycles is the Big Wheel Front derailleur. The Front derailleur is built to accommodate the large assortment of designs and sizes available from the Big Wheel line of bicycles. It fits easily on either side of the seat tube and adjusts itself so it will be firmly in place so it doesn't move. Big Wheel front derailleurs can be found in varying sizes and are manufactured from premium quality materials. The majority of the front derailleurs are made with aluminum or carbon fiber.


For the ones that prefer thicker wheels, Big Wheel sells Big Wheel steel wheels which are available in both free and loaded configurations. Steel wheels are almost two times as heavy as a similar aluminum wheel. These steel wheels are available in both loaded and free style configurations. A loaded Big Wheel could be loaded directly over the front wheel, while a free frame can be bought while the front wheel is not desired.


The Big Wheel rear derailleur is designed to accommodate larger and heavier loads than most rear derailleurs found on a typical bike. In order to accommodate the additional weight, the rear derailleur is intended to be internally enlarged. This increases stability and maneuverability on a Big Wheel 29er. There are lots of different configurations of rear derailleurs available on the market, but Big Wheel sells their Big Wheel rear derailleur in several different configurations, starting with a five-speed Big Wheel system for people who prefer a hardier ride and a lighter, aluminum frame.


Lots of people start their hunt for a Large Deluxe 29er simply by taking a look at the Big Wheel brand name. However, because of the popularity of those wheels many specialty manufactures have begun producing them. Specialty wheels like those made by Specialized are becoming more popular as mountain bikers become conscious of the number of options available. Some firms producing specialty wheels also produce them for people who are seeking performance in addition to fitness. Bikes with carbon fiber frames offer a lighter, stronger ride, while Big Wheel 29ers with titanium frames are quickly becoming a popular choice amongst enthusiasts.
