JK The DK General was a classic bike in it's time.

I say get a mountainbike with shocks. Street mountain biking is heaps of fun, you can take on stairs and gaps without breaking your wrists like you would on a bmx. Plus bmx bikes suck arse for normal riding.
Something like this:

Actually what that bike is is a trials jobbie and would probably be ok if you had better gearing for street than the whizzzz whiz trials gears. Unforgiven has it right MTB street bikes are the way to go.

Yeah, MTB jump and free ride bikes have never been better value. My old Norco is looking pretty close to a trade in. I used to ride bmx dirt jumping until my early 30's (believe it or not) and then gave it away after a particularly nasty shoulder bingle. I gave in to trying out some kids jump MTB (Kona something or other?) and it fucking kicked arse. My back felt reasonably ok too instead of the old compressed spine thing from even 20" BMX that I used to get. 24" BMX are for posers and old guys (errr Razz

). Oh and I'm 6" 1" but I think it's more about flexibility than height.
