24"?

[saeed]

hey guys, i ride a custom norco 250, with rigids and stuff and i was wondering if its worth going for the 24"s?

 

[damonlandsdown]

if you could, id definatly go 26''. i had 24'' before i went to 26'' and the 26's had a much better feel to them.

really? thats good then cause i have 26" at the moment but there a bit big to spin on there always getting caught up when i 180/360

Wrong and stupid.

24s are awesome, but it's completely pointless running 24s on a frame designed for 26" wheels. You can run 26s successfully in a 24" frame, but it just doesn't work the other way unless you're some beasty trailboss who wants tiny wheels and a looooooong frame.

haha yeh i rekon im gonna get a dob and some 24"'s so yeh im gonna get a new frame and a new wheelset, thanks a lot for your help guys.

24" is wonderful. I found riding 26" too cumbersome for my liking and I didn't want the small twitchy characteristics of a BMX. I think that 24" is a great wheelsize and I'm amazed that more people don't ride it.

I like running my frame (22.5" / 26" frame) with 24" wheels. Love the long and low feel =] Though, i do hate 24's and think 26" is the only way (should be)... But yet i'm still riding 24's.... Go figure...

I've been 26 / 24 / 26 / 24 / 20 / 24 / 26 / 24..... So yeah, got to know all the sizes pretty well! haha

Sorry, should've clarified. There's no point riding a 26" frame with 24" wheels unless you're a freak at bikes.

Well said!
If it works for you, who gives a shit about what size your wheels are.
