I was woundering what bike I should get. I am a beginer so nothing to exspesive or fancy. Something under $200. I was looking at the GT Zone. I am most iterested in dirt jumping and mabey some grinding here and there. I am kinda into flatland but i like air more( i am a snowboarder ). I trying to do something new so can u help me.




I take that back i dont want to do any flat land at all, probally no vert either.I mostly want to do dirt and some grinding. I live near a collage so I go there sometimes so that is street. There are alot of benches and rails there so lets hope i dont get ticked. I need a bike for dirt and street

Thanks_

If you ask me, I think you should get either a low end Hoffman or a low end Fit.

Try danscomp.com look for sale bikes in your price range. You can get some good finds. stay away from GT if you have 200$ to spend.

The answer to this question is always the same: a secondhand one.
