Has anyone got a bike with 22" wheels ? I like the look of the S&M ATF , just wondered what they ride like .

Yeah that Standard is lovely  :smitten:
The ATF is probably more in my price range though .

Surprised he hasn't been on already tbh  :teef:
They don't look that much different to a regular BMX really, except when Spen gets on his & it looks like he's brought a cruiser to the skate park

Yep I have a Faction Zeitgeist.  Great bike but cheap components so it's heavy. Ride much more like a 20" than a 24"

However if you read the reviews on the new Faction Almera against the S&M then the Almera comes out ontop every time. .... :coolsmiley:

There was a lad at the last Terminal One oldies night who had one for sale but I can't remember his name :crazy2:

22s ride great! Especially if you're a tall type.  Faction have got a good deal on their kit with wheels

Wheels are really nice!
