Get ditch forks, dunno if they even exist anymore actually!

Pure that General Lee is 24" right? I'm not just going mental?

If you're gonna ride 24" anyway you may aswell get a jump/stret/slalom frame and build that up with 24" wheels, that's what i'm doing with mine.

Then you can have a bit of suspension up front and disc brakes or hydraulic rim brakes at the least, god knows BMX brakes are shite!

Aye pure, i wouldnt bother with trials brakes without upgrading your wheels, or otherwise they'll just get crushed.

What ?
The rims will get crushed by the brakes !

---

- Effel - 27-11-06

Aye.

I like the sound of brakes like that.
How do they work then ?

---

- Effel - 27-11-06

Dunno, Hydraulic i think. I've been out of it for two years or so, im not the best to ask.

---

Yep hydraulics.

Get discs though rather than rim brakes as they'll still work if (when) you bend your rims.
