The price seems a tad high but you might as well get the big bored bike if you're getting either. I persoannly rock the 50 stock and haven't had the urge to bore it out but a lot of people prefer the extra juice so if I was in your situation that's what I'd get.

Keep the foot brake and add a stiff spring and big bars. You'll be money

No problem...not saying to never get the hb but it's good to learn foot brake control first

get the big bore it helps when doin like special k circles. get the 50 stunt hand brake youll be a way more universal rider. and youll be able to do highchair and special k circles CONTROLLED. but it is key to learn the footbrake before the hand brake.

+1..except you can save moeny and build a HB that's just as good as teh 50stunt one (just not as pretty) if you're on a budget like some people... but definatley learn the foot brake,,, it wil transfer that skill to all bikes you ride ( most bikes dont' have hand brakes) and it's a bit more powerfull to save your A$$ in some bad situations
