mods Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 Short bikes are good for bunny hop style riding, e.g backwheeling. Whereas on a long bike thats very hard to do, but they are much better for sidehopping. It also depends what forks/stem you have these can make a massive difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still I think a little bit longer will be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan. Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 iv just gone from an adamant a3 long (1030) to a monty as my adamant is in need of some attention lol.....so far im not really liking a short bike, as peopl have said its amazing for bunny hops but thats about it! long bikes imo give you more room to adjust etc may just be me but i am 6'1.
