Hi everybody. Im just starting to get back into BMX after about 4 or 5 years and i want to start flatlanding. I was just wondering which would be a better bike. DK Signal or Free Agent Air Strike. Sorry if this is a repeat question. Thanks for all the advise in advance.
Welcome to the forums! I'm biased against Free Agent, as too many of their bikes seem to be really cheap.

Really cheap as in not very good quality??
Yeah. As in inexpensive, and not in a good way. Although at a given pricepoint, quality is probably equal on most bikes.

So basiclly most bikes around the same price range are the same quality just depending on which brand you like??

Hey, if you want a nice Bike go to flatlandfuel.com. I can vouch for them as I recently ordered a KHE Messhersmith(I spelled it wrong) from there complete bikes section. I got an Oddesey "0" offset front fork, and im of tearing it up. The Meshersmith has a flat dedicated cromoly frame, 10mm axels, black alloy, rims, with taska freecoaster, and those sweet geraldo handle bars. Its a great bike, for a great price if you have any questions I can help you out, but if your willing to spend more you can gor for the Ares Ahura or the othere exept alot of them dont have zero of set so it easier to get the cheaper bike and get the upgrade.
I have a Stock KHE Mesherssmith,w/05/06 zero offset odassey frontfork, In the future Im gettin Chrome Rims with a taska free coaster, and Im upgrading my frame to the KHE equallibrium.

Wow, congratulations! You figured that one out refreshingly quick! :D
For the money, the DK Signal is probably your best bet for a first flatland bike, since your options *are* pretty limited and no good seems to come of KHE's integrated headset detangler thingie. Check 'em out at Flatlandfuel.com.
