Street on 24"

Justin K. And Ivan are the two riders that come to mind.

Ivan has a video out, but from reading and talking to him, he has
gotten tons better.

Justin is in Defect, and has some videos out of him too.

Sorry that I cant post any links for them though.

24s are alright for gappage and stuff but they aren't very good for the
more technical things like crankflips and uni spins and all that.

24" with a shaved duro= good racing uni, and strong enough to take off
sets
actuall tricks on a 24 are wayyyy harder but still do able

I've been doing street on a 24" for almost one and a half years. It's
good for most things. Took me just under a year to learn 360 unispin.
But I never got the balls to learn to crankflip.

Now I'm getting into riding a trials uni. It feels sooo much easier,
it's unbelievable. The same gap requires half the energy and doing a
360 unispin is just jumping and turning your hands. Way easy.

I've tried thee tyres with the 24": Wildlife Leopard, Duro and Hookworm
and Hookworm is definitely the best by far, both for trials and street.
Grippy, light and maneouverable.

Good luck with 24" street, man.

Oh, sorry. Wildlife Leopard Duro, Fireball and Hookworm.

Fireball probably looks the coolest, but is pretty bad for
maneuvrabilty and you get pinch flats with it all the time. I once got
5 holes in my inner tube after jumping off a six-set with a Fireball.
