Dirt jump bikes should be small compared to your XC bike. Makes them more flickable.

Really, come on. If you don't have a wrench to fit that buy a multi tool or something. And a 9mm QR axle will flex too much under that use. 20mm, okay, sure.

Because the BMX will jump better, ride park better, ride street better, and be better spec'ed and stronger.
