The Hitcher Posted May 30, 2007 Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Just get out there a try peoples bikes is the best way to find out which you prefer and for that price range you could basically have whatever bike you wanted. Im about 5 10" and ride 26, but i love 20 aswell when my mates come out on theres. But big wheels are always much better for me just cause thats what i like.Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ridetrial Posted May 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 Cheers everyone for the help, im more used to riding on 26 inch wheel bikes rather than smaller BMX styles, would i be more comfortable on a mod and how much difference is there in a bike worth 800 pounds and a bike worth 1200?Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
