Help im pulling my hair out. I want to get myself a x mas present and i cant decided over 24 or 26 inch wheels. They will be going on my steelhead bike, built for Dirt Jumping and stuff like that. I have a lighter set of wheels for it when i want to do long rides, but will 24 inche wheels work well? or just make me out to be a BMX wann be? PS> i cant do 360's. and probably will never be able to either

a friend of mine just built up a set of 24" aircorp for his steel head. He loves the 24"'s on the steelhead.

For dirt, BMX-tracks and street 24" totally rules. For everything else get 26".

24s man and then for long rides use those "ligther" wheels that i assume are 26 inchers. you get a lot more manuverality, acceleration, control, strength, and youll be able to manual and nose manual and flick the bike around a lot easier.

can I see your steelhead/ post pics of it thanks!?

here it is in XC MODE> the duck tape isnt on any more

24's man, the 26 inch wheel is just way too big for street. IMO

in my opinion, 26-ers won't be holding you back. so sell those 26" wheels, and build up some Kings laced to some reasonably strong yet reasonable light rim.

im all for 24s u get a way more control when u dj

I just switched to 24". Man have you ever ridden a pool or mini ramp with 26"? You feel like a giant.
