Joining the club as another dude who rode when he was young and now he's 37 and getting back into it. I'm 6'6" so it made sense to get a 22" frame and wheels. More info in the comments. P.S. I can still do a solid bunny hop.
My wtp audio 22in was one of the best purchases I’ve made in a while so much so I plan on building a 20in. The only thing that sucks is now the weather is getting nicer, but I’m working way more. I’m off weekends, but the park I like to ride is crowded on weekends. I just need to build up the trails I had as a kid since no one goes there so I shouldn’t be bothered or have to worry about anyone messing them up. Have fun and remember we don’t heal like we used to. I never wore a helmet besides at parks that required them now if I’m at the park or actually riding I have a helmet on.

As an old dude and literal resident of Chicago- get yourself some taller bars! Kink Contender 9.75” would be perfect for you.

Ended up grabbing a Subrosa Malum that has some nicer goodies on it. I also sprung for some fun colors of Rant H.A.B.D. grips and the Trill pedals. I’m also going to put a purple Rant chain on it.

Jay Miron! You’re not middle aged, just cultured.
