I got my new 24" lx yesterday. I can't believe how much better it is than the squid. I went from riding about 50' to well over 200'. When I did dismount, it was much smoother. I didn't hit my shin or calf once with the pedals (the bruises from the squid are still there...). I rode both fast and slow in control. I don't know if this is because of me just getting better, the switch from 20" to 24", or something else. But I did have a lot of fun.
The only disadvantage of the 24" is it will probably be a little harder to learn to mount unassisted. It's only 2 or 3 inches higher, but that feels like a lot.
Would you recommend I spend more time learning to ride further and turns or focus on mounting?
Ride and ride and ride. Ride so far that there's nothing around to hold onto to mount with anymore. Then learn to freemount. You have to at that point.
