all of the draw backs of that 20" bike have already been cured by cannondale with thier hooligan , its not a fixed , but it has an eccentric BB so can easily be converted , its has a very long seat post and compact strong frame , which addresses the weak down tube joint , i have the hooligan with the afline 8 speed hub and love it for urban cycling , very twitchy handling whihc makes it great for weaving from kerbside to centre through lanes of traffic , the hooloigan has very sturdy BMX rims and high pressure BMX tyres , ive had a hooligan for over a year now , and i love the thing , only problem i would say is the smallness of the chainring , but got a set of 144 bcd cranks to replace the bend MTB things currently on it, the only down side is the price of the cannondale hooligan , especially since the $/£ rate has dropped so much , i was lucky to get a model with half 08 and half 09 parts on sale , i think cannondale were just clearing out parts from the shelves when they put it together
