The new 24":
This one has a .25" longer top tube and a .25" shorter chainstay than my previous 24". I have yet to remove the half-link (to shorten the CS distance) and also round up a brake lever. The seat tube is the same 1.375" diameter as the top tube. I'll probably make a railed seatpost because pivotal seat/seatposts are rigid, uncomfortable garbage. I might as well sit on the tire.
Not that I'll be riding skateparks anytime soon. I might have torn my ACL this weekend while trying to learn tricks on an airbag (out at Texplex). Old Eddie Fiola landed on his head several times trying backflips, yet I'm the one hobbling away for trying tricks that I could learn on a wedge flyout. That's always the way it is though... You get hurt when least expected, on familiar tasks.

24
Como se dice: Dialed? Big 22mm stays, 83mm wide BB, 31.9mm post, 23" top tube, .7"/18mm BB rise
I think I'll do this color for the 24:

Steve's OS20 23" top tube
16" chainstays
I got to ride the cool guy spot in Houston last weekend. They are the biggest jumps that I've ridden on this rigid bike. The first set after this step-down is ~17 feet. BMX bikes/cruisers are much less forgiving than suspended DJ bikes, especially when learning new jumps. I think I like suspended dirt jump bikes better
