I agree. Mid is probably the best. It's small and looks clean. And the bearings last more than a few months.

Will Mid BB fit on the Schwinn Pro Stock 3 20" frame? I'm starting to see that some of the parts I originally want I can't get because of the old style frame. Like the Odyssey rear wheel, I was told that I can't get 9T or 10T driver because the frame only fit 3/8" so it has to be 12T for smallest size. What a bummer...

The Schwinn will most likely use an American BB, which is the same thing as a Mid BB with cups.

Yes american is mid, just with conversion cups, and you can still get those wheels, just grind out the dropouts to fit. There is no sence in trying to ride freestyle with 3/8 axle in the rear, you'll be destroying rear wheels often.
