    Old Guy wants to race BMX - ACT

    i'd say go the 24".. but in the end it comes down to what you feel comfortable on,, personally 20" feel's too small for me, even tho im only around 6foot i feel like a giant on a 20".. i'd suggest making a trip to your local bike shop & test riding both 20 & 24" to see what your comfortable on &...

    i remember a couple of us lifting the gate when we were like fourteen so we could do our own gate starts, a few of us would lift it & push it slightly further then it was supposed to go so that none of us could hold it up from the others & then kick it down,, thing seemed to weigh a ton back then

    I've seen too many riders go straight over the hangers tryna get off to a good start when the gates failed to drop & had their bikes follow them over to bother fuckin wit clip in pedals.. also not too keen on not being able to take a foot off the pedal on corners etc if & when the need to do so...
