New bike?
Hi, I'm new to the forum and haven't been actively riding for the last 10 years, so I need some help. My info, I'm 6'2" and 200 lbs. 39 years old. Still pretty active, in the gym regularly and can push out a 8.5-minute mile. I'm not trying to relive my "RAD" or "BMX" days, just looking to peddle around with my 5 and 2 year old boys at the local pump track and rhythm section, maybe a few small jumps. I want to leave my options open... My budget is under $500 I'm looking at the Sunday model 24C or Harro group1 24. Any input would be greatly appreciated!!

Sunday Model C all day long. The 24" size is a great middle ground between "cruising" and "playing," and the Model Cs that I've ridden had really nice handling -- quick-steering, but not dump-you-on-your-middle-aged-ass quick. I love 26" bikes, but pump tracks are lots more fun with a shorter wheelbase, IMO
