newbie needs advice !!
« on: April 05, 2009, 05:46 PM »
hello,

       can anyone give me some advice!!!!. I'm 11 years old and currently ride a raleigh team burner but have been recently going to my local free skate park. However my raleigh burner seems to be to heavy to jump and be able to do skills properly. i'm looking for a good new skool bmx that not gonna cost me a fortune for the skate park


can anyone suggest and new skool bmx's please  :?


cheers

 :) Depends on your budget-have a look in the RAD shop.Skills are something you`ll learn over time and a lighter bike won`t instantly make you a better rider.

yo Fox, welcome in mate

what's your budget?

cos from £300 to what ever you want to spend is possible, so some idea of your limit would be good,

then contact stodgy at the radbmxshop for a mega deal.

also, is your burner a new one or an old one? what ever, sell it to fund your park bike.

completes from fit, subrosa, we the people and about a zillion other manufacturers are available and reasonably priced.

 :) Give us some idea of your budget? The brands you`ve mentioned are OK,but there are better bikes that don`t always cost the earth from WTP,Subrosa,Kink etc.Last years models are always worth considering.If you put your homework in ,you could even do a custom build for not a lot.
