street, skate park, off road riding, flatland, maybe trials, and
downhill. now that I told you what I would sort of like to do, what bc
woud be a good all around bc for me. A regular 24", a regular 20", or a
20" trials bc. thanks for the help

Im going to have to dis agree with spencer here for a second. I would
say a bmx bc is your best bet for urban riding. With a mod bc, you are
limmited to 2.5" knobby, 40 psi max tires. With the bmx bc, you have
hundreds of tires to choose from, in many differnt styles. You can use
slick tires, knobby tires, high psi, low psi, wide, skinny. Any in any
combination.


Some of you may have seen spencers bc tire that we shaved. If you want
a tire like that, and the abbility to switch to a high psi bmx tire,
try this:

ok. I will probably go with the trials and then get another one for
the other stuff if I like it and then if I like it enough it would be
like unicycles and they just keep addding up. thanks for the help

nevermind what i said about getting the trials because i thing I am
going to get a regular one and put a maxxis max daddy tire on it
because I will do more park, street, and on rode type of stuff and then
if I like it get a trials bc. I figured this way it would be cheapier
if I didn't like it and i would do more with this one then I would do
with a trials bc.

ok. since I have a thread in here and in the product review on witch BC
i should get I figured I would post my question here since it would be
seen more. Ok my question is: Is it worth the extra $20 for the pro
bedford plates from the original or is it not.

edit/ps: I guess my choices went from those 4 to the first two
