I'm guessing that by "trick bike" you mean something BMX-sized. That's really not a bike you want to use to go places with. The gearing and the riding position is all wrong if you want to cover any kinds of distances.

On top of that "pure" trick bikes often haven't got any brakes, and you really need those if you're gonna be riding on streets and in traffic.

If you want a bike that can be used both for riding and still take some abuse from playing around with it, get a hardtail XC MTB and put a pair of wide slicks(Like Schwalbe Big Apple) on it. That'll both be a decent ride and still be strong enough some drops and jumps.

What kind of bike is it when you combine a mountain bike and a trick bike?

There is no such combination. Trials bikes are mountain bikes that one could construed as being "trick bikes" as trials require riders to "hop" around a complex obstacle course more than actually propelling the bicycle in a forward motion. I think he is refering "trick bike" to bmx? If so, the combination is a Dirt/street Mountain bike Check out some brands such as Dartmoor, NS, DMR, Black Market, Revell, Norco, Specialized 24seven, Identiti for info on there Dirt jump/street bikes (Dj)


Should a bmx be light?

Kinda-sorta. The big thing is strength. Basically you want a bike that's strong enough and as light as possible for that amount of strength. You don't want a bike that breaks under you but you don't want a bike that's heavier than needed.
