These bikes are the stepping stones to winning X-Games medals and Dew Cup titles. The 118 gives a young rider the chance to go to the parks, trails and streets to start working on tricks with a bike that they can control much sooner than in years past. The 18 wheel size of the 118 give smaller riders a chance to develop their skills on a bike with the same feel that they will have on a 20 bike when they get taller and stronger.
