Best 24 retro cruiser for riding and keeping fit?
Jon The Bassist:
Most of these bikes come/came with a pretty standard BMX gearing, I would be wary of making the gearing too much higher unless you're very sure your knees etc are up to it. You can go pretty quick on the standard gearings as long as you have fairly good pedalling form. Also unless you're small, you will probably need a very long seatpost to ride properly sat down. I commute most days on 26" BMXs. :daumenhoch:

Thanks for all the help and advice and pics. The choice at the moment stands between these

I know the black and gold one is serious cash, but was thinking of selling most of the parts on it and changing them for rider parts a bit cheaper :crazy2: how about the new haro 24 twin top tube ? That said they are £750 so not that much cheaper :)
