a superco satellite is a 24" specific and it looks sweet. its a very nice frame, but kinda expensive. satellite FTW!!!

dobermann, evil, blk mrkt
all got similiar geo.

or you can go big name companies like specialized p series, kona's shred/scrap/stuff/cowan, norco 125/250/4hun

if you want a bit beefy you can go with banshee amp, santa cruz jackal, whatever gary fishers dj frame is(I want to say fat possum?)

etc

I have no clue about 24 other than Dobermann's can be ordered to be 24specific

Im not buying a kona. Im not stupid they ride shit for the price, Id prefer steel with skinnier tubes if possible. Iv been thinking about an NS possibly but they say they are designed for a 80mm fork?
