    Just curious. In the videos I've seen it looks like everyone is riding
    a 20". I have a 24" with 150 mm cranks and a 3" wide tire that I ride,
    and would like to learn crankflips and uni spins. I know it would be a
    bit tougher, but I really like the speed of the 24".

    Anyone know of vids with people riding street on a 24"?

    -peace

    I've been doing some streetish stuff lately on my muni, like grinding
    and unispins. It's fine, but I have never really used anything else, so
    I don't know what i'm missing. I'd say try to learn those skills on the
    24 and if you can't, oh well.

    I do a little street on my 24. Handrails is about the extent of my
    street skills. I mostly do Natural trials on my 24. The gazz has great
    grip for that kinda stuff. If i did strictly street, i might consider a
    smoother tire.

    Heres a little vid from back in the day:

    Ive still got my 20 mixed in in that vid. Ive subsequently given that
    guy away. Now i only use my 24. 🙂
