It's more like a kid's street bike. It's not a freestyle bike because it doesn't have any platforms and no front brake. It's not really a racing bike because it has a Gyro rotor, although there's nothing really stopping you from using it in a race. Another thing about the bike is the wheel size is an odd ball 18" (as opposed to 20").
