    Hi dk2. Can you write a little bit about the different feel/handling of these 3 bikes and what you like about them? As Anton, I'm considering these models (and also the Flow Plus). Mainly interested in street and just messing around, but could also see myself finding some outdoorsy area to mess around in (boulders, logs, etc). Thanks :)

    Hi i think the arcade has a more "solid" feel due to the steel frame, and I'm more used to that due to 20+ years on bmx bikes. So for the street park I find I trust i more...the arcade bunny hops really well, where as the hex has a "bigger" feel to it which i dont like. This "bigger" feel in turn makes it better for static moves and rolling over stuff. The fourplay is a bread of its own. Fun and stable but not as lively as the others. All are killer bikes, so really hard to give recommendations. ..but you know some days you wear sandals, some day boots..

    Hey guys. 

    My name is Anton, and im looking to get into some street trials. I've read a lot of opinions, but i cant decide. 
    Bugdet is about 1500 £, so should i go for the Hex 26'' or achade or fourplay? 

    Greetings from Denmark. Seems like im the only Dane thinking about trials 

    Btw. I am 196 cm tall. 6,6 foot tall or something like that

    Hi 

    ive had bike bag's before, but i find they are to heavy to use on planes. Instead i went for a big hockey bag (it has wheels so you wont have to carry the bike(most sports shops has them))...Bike fits nicely(wheels, pedals and stem is taken off) and total weight is under 20kg, so it can be check in as a regular bag. inside the bag i wrap the bike in bobble plastic and add some extra padding on dropouts and brakes...

    just my 2 cents

    Hi currently i have a sunday model c 24" bmx and an arcade. The model c i more slack in the headtube, which gives it a "slow" feeling compared to the arcade...The weight is another difference(arcade is lighter), but not overly important.. The only think i would like was two gears on my arcade one for trials(22/16) and one for park/DJ/bmx trakcs(22/12 or higher)... other than that i ride the arcade everywhere and its my favorite bike in my "fleet"... (i have a background of 20+ years on bmx...)
