Can be done on 20, 24, 26" wheels with no bother, just depends what you're happy riding. I take my 24" racebike to skateparks but I am looking for one 'do-anything' 20" bike  >:D

If you need a bit more room but want to ride it in a skatpark then get a 22" wheel Faction or just a bigger top-tube newschool ???

I wouldn't fancy trying to spin a 24" wheel bike - great on the track for sure, but not exactly ideal in a skatepark.

I'll bring my 22" wheeled bike to the christmas do at Terminal One if you fancy trying it out :daumenhoch:

DO IT !!!

You probably won't go back to riding old school again once you do .
 
Most new school completes are more than enough for what we will do be doing , without spending stupid money too !

not sure if i can make T1. its a bit of a trek i reckon the only thing that'll spin will be my head when it hits the deck the last time i went on a skate park with any sort of commitment i was 25yrs younger and a good 3 or 4 stone lighter this could get messy :2funny: i would like to give that foam pit a go though. been looking on a few different sites theres some awsome looking bikes on the market :daumenhoch:
