So I took my Kona Stuff indoor BMX racing not too long ago and it was way fun. The second night I raced against other MTB but the first night I raced against 2 other guys on cruiser and would get killed on the start and then i could never catch up and they would continue to pull away through the rhythm section.
I'm thinking about getting an Intense Race Pro 24, but I'm also wanting to build up a new downhill bike this spring. I want to keep doing the BMX thing and probably also during the summer (I got an ABA license to race).
Would I really notice a difference between a cruiser and my hardtail or would some narrower tires and practicing gate starts help out enough to be somewhat competitive?
