David Biddle™ Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 ok i'm thinking of going to 24inch trials cos at this very moment i'm running a zoo pitbull long(1090) and i find it really nice to ride but i'm looking into more of a street stlye of bike.I have tryed a few 24inch bikes i.e zoot and a few leesons and i feel like i'm at home on a 24inch.So the main question i want to know is well is it worth going to 24inch from 26inch and what companys these days sell 24inch bikes or frames cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tylerlovesalex Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 hi mate i had a mod and went to a 24" and it feels so much nicer, but there is not much out there i.e bits, they don't make much for them.you can get rims i recommend spanks lighter and stronger then try all.you can run 26" forks and will feel just as good and obviously cranks, bb's, all that sort of stuff is the same apart from that thats all.oh and i think heatsink do a 24" cheers tyler.

gr8grumble Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 hello, a good place to buy 24" is off of 'heatsinkbikes' steve will do you a good deal on a 24uk, you can describe your own style and it will be built around that.

Luke Rainbird Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 some mielec customers dont get the geo they want because they cocked it upApart from that being irrelevant really, as 24uks are a fixed geo frame, and once Mielec have that plugged into the machines they all come out fine.Maybe during the one-off frames in the proto stages the frames may have been a little out (in the same way as peoples' customs) but when a frame's values have been put into their computer, sorted.
