    My 8 year old son is just getting into riding pump tracks / racing.

    I'm thinking about getting a 26" or 29" so I can have a crack when its just us. Not sure which size would be better for tooling around on, we usually cover a bit of distance too and he's way fitter than I am. My current bike is a 29er FGFS but its quite heavy and gets pedal strike on the berms.

    • Racing is the gateway drug to dirt (only joking). You Aussies have been putting out some amazing dirt riders lately. Jason Watts is a maniac.garbage
    • What crank arm length is giving you pedal strike on that bike? 175?garbage
    • Yeah 175, but it’s because it’s fixed gear, no good as you can’t pump the bike. Also would be nice to have something like a GT heritage pro series 29!slappy
