If the rider is good at tricks you can do tricks on any type of track/fixed gear frame

People in mash/macaframa trick on concepts, cdale tracks, samson njs, bareknuckles etc.
Yeahhh, i agree..the problem is, im not so good at tricks thus I need a frame that is strong enough to take the beating, stupid beating..

try the trek soho. It can bar spin easily, is hecka durable, and won't kill your wallet.

https://thebicyclechain.com/itemdetails.cfm?ID=1692

And throw some green deep v's, pink cranks, and blue oury's on it and it's tarck ready for tricking, I would know since that is my friends bike. In his defense the pink cranks were used dura-ace that he got for $8 after he stripped one of the crank arms.

You can barspin a 55cm and bigger with a 700x23c tire.

Our next round got delayed till around April- we only have 59cm and 61cm in stock- but we will deal on those while they last!

my 53cm stock mark v pro has bar spins with a 700c front (w/ 700x20 tire) and it can take a huge beating.

tell me

Would this bike be able to fit a 14mm axle. As if to persay im going to take a cassette hub maybe 36h or 48h and put it on a deep v then put it on here i dont know if this would work or not. Since this bike is half bmx i could put a whole bmx drive train on it probably rock a 28/10. AND im not going to make it a fixie cause fixies are gay i just want something i can coast and jump up and down curbs and not break or crack anything and survive my abuse.

That's pretty much what all these "fixed gear freestyle" bikes are... only with steep angles.

Not that i have problem with them, if my san jose ever dies, i'll just end up replacing it with some super beefy trick bike and add canti boses and disk mounts.
Most indestructible cross bike, ever.

IRO Mark Vs are pretty good for tricks. I think ur handlebar/fork setup are really important to setting the bike up for flatland stuff.
