Am I mad? I'm 40 this year and struggle to ride with two kids but it's the only thing I love to do, started off bmx racing and never stopped.

Now, I sold my yeti sb66c which I loved, even did road rides on it but had to sell up when I had a spell of self employment, so I've recently bought a pivot Mach 6 carbon frame and slowly building it up, but I can't get the sb66c out of my head, it was a great bike and kitted out well, fox 36, crossmax sx etc, and I've just been offered it back.. Am I mad going back to a fine 26" machine!

I mean if you liked it... maybe you should go with the sb6c. the mach 6 you will be disapointed.

I mean I'm getting my old sb66c back, an sb6c would be a dream but 4 grand plus is too much for the amount I ride at the mo!

It's just going to be hard to sell it with 26 inches

I know, but the closer my bike feels to a bmx then I'm happy, I'd like to keep the sb66 when eventually trying/buying a 650b anyhow as felt so comfy on the yeti, just need to ride more:-)

Ride it. There is a difference between the wheel sizes but it's small, a lot of hype in my opinion. Ride what you like, ignore the marketing and trends. You'll be far happier and ride more.
