Whats your background? I come from a BMX background and I was always disappointed by 26" bikes, they were just to big. When I finally got my 24" I was amazed about how well it translated from a 20", not to mention jumping and doing tricks just seemed easier on it. I have noticed that bigger guys seem to do better on 26" bikes, but that is generalizing. I'm just a hair under 6' and as I stated, a 24" is perfect for me. I would suggest trying them both out if thats possible, but if you want a big bmx bike get the 24". If you are doing MTB trails and hucks, whatever, 26" might be better.

Check out the two bikes I have in my signature, both are great bikes just different wheel sizes.

16" wheels are going to be the next fad.
Jump on the bandwagon early.

25".
search it. It will make you denounce your religion... and if you don't have one, it will make you take one on!
seriously. Suzuki backs it.





I think it depends on what frame you are eyeing too... geometry is almost more important than wheel dia. in my eyes.

if you can, try both. its a personal preference.

I don't think its gonna go. KHE and Suzuki introduced this product 2 years ago and no one else has come on board. Too bad, eh?



I ride BIG vert and flatland --- SO 26" all the way baby!!! :happydance:
