I'm surprisingly consistent.  One is 18 (the Firebrand) one is 21
(Thanatos), and the Vertigo is 28 studs long.  Though I think I could enter
the vertigo in the unlimited category, since it does something fancy.  The
rest are all 20 studs long.  And all the wheels turn on all my bikes.  It's
Bram's funky bike where the wheels don't turn.  If you make the cutoff
between small and medium at 20 studs, I can just not enter two of my small
bikes.  So up to 20 is small, 20 to 30 is medium, over 30 is large.  But
that would really benefit me, so it's up to the community to decide, I guess.
