I have a crazy idea, just want some opinions:
Right now I ride a 14" mtb, it's getting a bit limiting and I'm considering getting something else, such as a DMR trailstar... and the crazy idea popped in to my head... get a 24" dirtjump bmx!
This is a top idea in my mind, but, I'm a pansy woman and want my suspension, so I was wondering, has anyone put a mtb fork and 26" front wheel on a cruiser bmx? Would it make the bike unrideable? I'd probably combine it with a chunky mtb stem and bar, and maybe a big 2.7" rear tire to even up the angles.
Is it possible? Has it be done? or am I off my head?
The bikes I'm considering right now are: FreeAgent Hellcat 24, DK General Lee 24, and Eastern Jane 24. I like the Jane as it has decent cranks out of the box, FA comes 2nd due to average cranks and the DK a distant third...but all 3 I can get from my local shop at a ncie price, hence my preference to them.
Hope you can help guys, thanks
