I don’t know crap all about bikes, but I’m hoping some guys here with a lot of experience in brands/types can give some insight as to a good bike to get. I don’t want anything hardcore but something good that I can beat on and will last a good long time. Not really even sure what my budget would be… sorta depends on how sexy this bike is going to be 😃 Please advise! (since this is a WTB, i’m also curious of bikes you guys might have for sale… i dont really care if its used or new as long as its in good condition) ---

what type of bmxing do you want to do, street, trails (dirt jumps) or flatland? ---

I didn’t really think about it… i’ll mostly just be using it around town… So I guess streets mostly, some grass, etc. Theres lots of dirt trails around here that I’d like to rip up though… so I guess if it exists… something well rounded in both of those scenarios ---

dude i have an old (from 01) free agent bmx bike i just dug out of my shed when i moved, i only rode it like 5 times cause it was a replacement of one that got stolen and i used to race bmx at track 2000 in milton. you can have it for $90… the thing is pretty much brand new besides a few scrapes. i will even have it tuned up at my work for free. getting rid of it cause im moving and i will never use it again if your interested i can get you pictures i spent over $400 on this bike and really the only difference between this and new ones is color of the frame ---
