20to26:
the wheels are now on my son's S&M Dirtbike - he got's a 44-16 on there at the mo and wants a trendier smaller front chainwheel....
Thanks for all the info guys

If it has 14mm drop outs, Get him a cheap set of wheels from cyclesport on the bay, 9T.

Depending on the brake location on the dirtbike, make sure the chain will clear the brake before you go for anything less than a 13T

DK made a 12T freewheel for use on a flip flop hub once upon a time ( 3 or 4 years ago)
That's definately the smallest I remember made ???
11t casette hub with chainstay mounted brake you have to have a constantly super tight chain so as to avoid any chain rub issues as Diggs mentioned
Like Gary says you can get a full wheel/set with 9t casette hub for mucho dheapness these days ;)

The DK ones weren't around long as they broke within a few rides, they discontinued them sharpish
