thanks for input, i think pete sent me there too , i guess they make good shit huh?

Re: good stunt bike?
 

yes, hard rock's are very good stunt bikes.

i pointed him in the disc brake direction tho.

you can stunt anybike, pretty much the only bikes i own are wal-mart bikes, you can develope some skill on anybike with rear brakes.


you might want to take a look at felt bikes too, i've seen some sick ones.

bwhahhahahahaha :laughing :laughing good shit

Re: good stunt bike?
 

well, a really good deal is a diamondback coil EX. they are only 400, dual suspension, and dual disc brakes and adjustable front shocks. it would last you a long time if it is well maintained. its derailers are the midline stuff from shimano as well.
BMX is the way to go, though. you can get a 220 dollar BMX bike with 4 pegs and see what you like the most, flatland, racing, vert, street, jumps. get a DK signal. 289.99 of flatlandfuel.com.

it dont rele matter hopw small it is tho does it? i used to rock a huffy bmx... :laughing

Re: good stunt bike?
 

i dunno, I always feel so cramped on a BMX, and when i finally get it to where i'm not "eating my knees" the BP is low and narrow....

Re: good stunt bike?
 

yah bmx bikes are mad small.. techincaly ur not supposed to be sitting while u pedal

Re: good stunt bike?
 

I was thinking about picking up a specailized today too, going to go with one of the disc brake ones, but I would suggest getting a cheap mountian bike and a cheap bmx, then see what you like.

edit - if your just looking for something to wheelie and endo, go with the mountain bike. :2cents

BMX bikes are supposed to be small. your supposed to feel small on them to flick them around.

Im now looking at getting the Jamis Durango tomorrow, it has the disc brakes and was told it would handle the beatings that Im going to dish out to it better then the hard rock, because most of my time on the bike will be in the mountians :YEAH
