fyfey Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 I went for 26" because I've always ridden mountain bikes... some people might choose 20" because they ride BMX and it's more farmiliar to them.I suppose it's all down to personal taste, and what feels/looks best to you. There's no wrong or right! Have a go on some bikes and see which you like best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viper4460 Posted September 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 rite bit of a update, i have looked at a couple of bikes and have found a couple of bikes. I have decided to go for the t-bird 06 as its got hs33 and good wheels and a half decent frame. I have found one local to me that had only been riden a hand full of times and he wants £200. Is that a fair price? Is the t-bird a ok bike, i would like a t-comp but its a bit more pricey and i dont know if i will get into trials yet so i want to start with something i can get used to on and learn on. Cheers for all you help chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eskimo Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 I'd say you have less chance of breaking the t-pro. That's my reason for choosing it. Plus i don't like the feel of the t-rex bikes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyboi Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 i just bought a 26" but thinking about gettin a 20" aswell lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxwellduryea Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 I think that 20" bikes are easier to start with, apply your skills, and then move onto a stock. But agaimn, its all personal preference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
