My turn for stupid question, 24" fork?

I'm looking at a 24" steel full rigid SS for my son for Christmas.Is there any decent 24" susp. forks around?It won't be used on the trail,only for street riding so it just needs to take the edge off of hits. Holla back steet riders.

There is also the Marzocchi D-Street 24" - 20mm thru axle design though.
Just curious, kind of frame is this going on?

Well you really dont need a 24" specific fork. But if you want to go that route as did I, marzocchi has the options you want. I am running a dirt jam it is a very very very basic fork. If you want something more advanced move up to the d-street. Im really just not too picky about my street/dj bike fork as long as it has squish im happy.
