  1. If only i had the money i would buy one of everything ! I find it funny
    how my friends want to try my uni only to fall off a couple times and
    give up. And then you get that one ( which i was ) that once you try it
    your hooked for life. I love it and dont see ever stoping.

  2. The 29" is vesitile for both off road, muni, commuting.

    Its just the right size for downtown traffic, simple freemounting, not
    too big to idle.
    Believe me, ask the coker riders how many can idle them 😉

    Now you said you have a 24" for off road and muni. Since this is the
    case I'd say go for a 36". Be prepared for a learning curve on
    freemounting and other stuff.

    The 36 is faster but between my 29 and 36 I can go more places and do
    more things with my 29". But for you since you have a 24, i'd say go
    right to a 36".

  3. I think your right. If I want to ride in town i will probably want to do
    more than cruise around. i think a 29 is strong and im not very good
    yet but my torker 24 is a beter bet in town. Does the square taper
    hub\cranks long lasting on a 36. I mean will they last for 1000's of
    miles if taken care of or do you have to replace hubs every few years.
    If i buy a coker i plan on keeping for a very long time and id plan on
    road riding it almost 100% of the time
