20" very Trials Specific, alot lighter and smaller which make them easy to move around.

26" Trials specific (no seat, very low frame) generally quite long which make them very comfortable on the back wheel and easier to ride.

with Seat/ DJ frame, better if you want to do some street riding also.

24" my personal favorate, best of both worlds, small and manouverable like 24" but the stability and street riding of a 26"

 

I started off on the GT Trials Frame, was very nice for learning but is basically a DJ frame. Not as stable as Trials specific bikes on the back wheel but perfect to start on.

I recently got an Inspired Fourplay 24" and im loving it, just feels soo much better and more comfortable. Its not as comfortable on natural Trials like the 26" but is much better for Street/Urban Trials

 

I would suggest 24" or 26" either or, mb 26" for starting :thumbup:

happy hunting :clap:
