*** BMX BIKE HELP ***?

[Rob U]

I am planning to get a new bike soon. My budget is $200. I dont want to get one from walmart, because their too cheap. What is a good light bike for some tricks, and mainly street riding. I dont know whether its bmx or freestyle. I dont want a mountain bike. Any suggestions on a bike that will fit my needs? Thanks!

NEVER go to a department store, they are cheap and unreliable. I actually have a bike on ebay classifieds and craigslist. It has well over $300 in upgrades on it. I used it for street riding. Works GREAT! It says $350 but since you have a budget, if you're interested, I will give it to you for $300

Going to your Local Bike Shop would work the best but if they dint have any (very unlikely) you could go to Red Line, they have nice bikes. I worked at a store where they sold only red line bmx bikes! Walmart is cheap and the bikes break easily.

I would suggest going to your LBS (Local Bike Shop) and checking out what they have in your price range. I agree that you should steer clear of Wal-Mart but for 2 hundy, you may be a bit limited.
