Well, 20s and 22s are good for dirt jumping so I don't see why 24s would not be good for dj.

if your sick of 26's, buy a 22". I rode 24's for a long time and I went to 22's and there awesome. 24" bikes are just to big and bulky for me. I'm a large 6'3 and my 22" feels perfect.

I've never built a 26". I've built a 24" DJ bike and the front end was way to low so I sold that. I just talked myself into building ANOTHER Sunday Wave C last week...... rode it for about a minute and sold it a few minutes later, to big and long. The 22" feels like a 20" but it rolls alot better and it's alot smoother but not so clumsy.

So back on the 22" Indust. The way I have it now it's perfect. The front end is so light, I can't say enough how happy I was riding last night.

That's what he's saying. Look into 22" frames like the Faction Amero, Indust 2Ton or Spacetime, and the S&M 22" ATF and Holmes.

Are you wanting to ride a compact 20" but feel that it's to small? than try a 22"
