I'm looking to get back into riding and i'm trying to find a 24" BMX with everything that I used to find on a 20". I'm looking at the Free Agent Devil 24 and it's got everything I want except for front brakes. What gives? Every 24 I look at has no front brakes. I can't even find a fork with a dropout for a 14mm axle and brake mounts. Does anyone know where I can find one for a decent price?

I mean how is anyone supposed to nose manual!!

I used to think that riding with no front brake was crazy, but once you get used to it you will never really miss it, unless you ride flatland maybe.

I would try to find something set up for v brakes though, which basically means a race frame. Thats just me though, most people are happy with 990 style brakes.

24s are bad enough... but a front brake.

Most people don't need 14mm axle in front...but if you want one, slightly older DK General Lee 24"s and Haro Backtrail 24"s came with them. For the front brake, all you need is this:

This Haro Backtrail has 14mm front axle:
