why make a trick bike with wheels that aren't 700?

doing tricks i imagine you'll eat tires, 700's are much more common and likely to get on the cheap.

26's are much more common and likely to get related parts on the cheap.

26's made for downhill will surely be strong enough for any sort of tricking

650s (i assume these are 650c's, if they're 650b's that ridiculous, there's like 5 panaracer tires you can get in that size) are not made for tricking abuse. they're meant for like triathlons or touring.


just because you can doesn't mean you should.
