...10ft. airs? I'm too much of a wimp I'm afraid. ::)
I'd like to do freestyle/flatland and my hope is, that it is much easier to do so than it is on my Performer. It rides really nice, but sometimes I think either the bike is too long or my legs way too short.
The above posted bike looks like as you could grap the bars and the seat with one hand - as it is done in some of the os-balance moves. I don't want to give up on that trick as it is my best atm.

If the Performer feels too long then a NS /Retro will be worse!
I know hat you mean exactly, it is essential for me also to have the bike set up that way as a good few of my tricks have the need to grab seat and bar! My PR has a Hot Seat for this reason and my new rider luckily is naturally set up like this! :daumenhoch:

Glad you mention that Damo. Hmm - the bike up there looks shorter to me - but it could be based on wishfull thinking too :-\
On the other hand as I looked the specs of the new Trickstar at the Hutch-site, I've toticed the top tube lenght is 19.5" - whereas the top tube of my Performer is about 17.5" to 18" ...not sure as I don't know the exact measuring points. But my Performer defo has a much steeper head tube angle, therefore I was assuming the Hutch has a shorter wheel base. ???
