I'm looking to buy new wheels for my 03' Kona Stinky D-Lux. I am toying with the idea of running 24" rims & tires. Just wanting to know the good and bad of the 24" wheelset? What rims, spokes, hubs in 24" and 26"? I ride urban, dropes, ride ledges, trail ride, and jump, gaps, etc. Just looking for a solid wheelset to take the abuse. My 26" wheels with 26x2.5 are doing fine. A lot of my friends are blowing up there spkes, axles, etc. on 26" wheels. Big cheese said Arrow Racing wheels are good for 24"?

we have sliced and diced this topic to death here on RM...just perform a search with 24" wheels and you should find a ton of info...oh and try the dh archives too they have tons of good stuff as well....D
