What's wrong with a 26" park bike? Be specific. A "Mountain Bike" in a skatepark is Okay. But... a dedicated 26" (still technically a mountain bike) park bike is the sh!t in a park.
26" park bikes are usually for the older guys (like me) who can no longer ride a 20" comfortably or for taller guys. It is much less gay than a 110lb, 14 year old wearing size 1 girl pants at the park...
Concrete park + no helmet = vegetative state waiting to happen.
I used to ride a Jackal at the concrete bowls and I struggled with the tight transitions. I went to a Fit S3 and I must agree that I would never go back to a 26 for street or concrete. To each his own. Dirt however is a whole different story, IMO it is way easier to whip around a 26" especially if the set isn't immaculately groomed. I have tons of respect for 20" dirt jumpers because I know just how hard it is when there is so much less room for error on landing a 20".
I ride my 26 evey where and i ride a lot of park and i have no issues wityh trannys on the big bike. one of my local parks is small and most of the quarters are 4 feet tall and i can blast them and do the same tricks as everyone on the 20's do. you just have to adapt to your enviorment
Amen brothers! Don't hate. Ride what makes you happy. Be happy with what you ride. Don't give yourself bad karma by wishing injury on others. And post cool pics often.
It's 25 degrees outside, might as well start some sh1t and have something entertaining to do, you guys had to go and ruin it be being all nice and accepting and whatnot, way to go.
