I occasionally think about a 22" atf, especially as I'm getting old. But if it's less responsive it'll make everything harder than it already is so I don't see the point. I rode a 24" mtb street bike for a while but went back to bmx because it just feels better

I think 22"s are well suited for taller riders or for not-tall riders who like to hit bigger trails.

I wish there were a few more rim and tire options.

A few years ago there was just the Velocity rims and crappy Meghna style tire.... Now we've got
the Revenge rims and the Faction rims which are both excellent, as are the S&M Mainline tires and the Faction F22 tires.

Is this a good price for this build? Seems like it to me:

S&M ATF 22" BMX bike - $550

Yeah, it is. The S&M ATF 22" kit on eBay is like 780 or something (frame fork wheels tires). So a complete could be $1000+

Crap. Not sure if I can actually afford it though.

What are you guys doing about tubes? I'm guessing a 20" tube would work just fine since 26" tubes work in 29" tires, but wasn't sure if the higher tire pressures cause any issues.


Another question: whenever i jump the brake yoke slams into the frame and makes a loud ping, any easy solutions? I'm thinking a small piece of gorilla tape on the frame?

22" tubes are on eBay and Amazon. Although yeah, you can use a 20" tube as well.
