anyone see Servin It Up 2 with the little pocket bikes doin wheelies?Now were those the real ones or were those just the generic ones? Can't they all wheelie? Ins't it all the rider?

How did you tear it up? How much do you weigh and what do you think would happen if I got on it at 266lbs?

i weigh about as much as u do and its slow even with my friends who are skinny on it, the motor doesnt have much power at all and we tried to ride wheelies on it forever, it just dont have the ***** like the real pocket bikes like in serving it up 2 that there wheeling, Coverts right there just made cheap, but thats just my opinion tho.

A few of my friends bought the ones from Pep Boys, like Gix6 said they arent fast at all, they are pocket scooters not pocket bikes, it take awhile to get up to speed and you cant wheelie them for ****, save the money and buy a real one...my .02

Re: Brand new Pcoket Bikes for $399

the one's that Darius and those guys were riding in Servin it up 2 were Blata's. 2 of the bikes were the B1 Oragami's and those usually go for over $3k the other 1 was a Blata 2.5....Best bet is to do research on them before you buy em....heard of alot of people complaining about the ones that you see on ebay and no parts being available for them (the chinese ones) if you have $300+ to just throw away then go for it...if i was to get another it would be another Blata....just my

Re: Brand new Pcoket Bikes for $399

I was looking at the chinese ones at a local dealer. They want $399 for them (which once you include shipping on the internet ones its about the same). He said they can get parts for them. Plus if I buy it local and it breaks right away i have someone to bitch too.
