this might seem like a stupid question, do they sell/make only 22" wheeled bikes?

I spy creation in the pics.  :daumenhoch:

I don't to be honest, I rode with him at Epsom trails in the mid 90's , and used to bump into him at KOC. First bloke I knew that could 540 a bike and a board.

Sounds about right.   He was only skating when he came to the barn, I suppose I'm partially responsible for him riding again in the 90s as he used to ride my bike in the barn at the end of the night 'to warm down'.....  6-8ft airs, 540s, legs off, hands off....  you know - basic warm down stuff  :shocked:

Then he said he fancied another bike, next thing I know he's scored a GT and he's pulling truckdrivers over the box a KOC.....

He had a Haro DV-8 down Epsom, the one without a front triangle. Used to smash it into trees to straighten it.

There's a couple of clips of him riding epsom here (he's at 2:10 , and yeah, that's a truck in probably '95)

Bru  :daumenhoch:

not when you put in next to that £400 quid retro Haro.  :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol: :LolLolLolLol:

I'm just puzzled by the 22" thing, just wonder why?

I've have to reserve judgment until I'd been on one, but I think the 22" thing is quite cool  8)

B  :daumenhoch:

retains the bmx look rather tha the cruise look but big fat f***ers like me might not look so silly on one.

havin ridden both 20 and 24 at trails , i think the 22 would be a treat, might have to change a few bits,
but looks good , maybe tempted,
dont hear of many decent 22 rims tho
