BMX - Ongoing list of decent BMX bikes.

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.
I searched and didn't see a list of decent BMX bikes, I think we all have our preferences (usually the ones we ride or drool over) So i think we should do it like this. Renaming bikes is ok, it'll be more like a review then.
Brand:
Weight:
Speed:

So I'll start, and if a mod or someone thinks that this is a good idea, they should sticky it.
Brand: Hoffman
Weight: Heavy as all hell, but easy to manual, wheelie, and jump.
Speed: Not the fastest bike around although its not really made for racing.
Cost: Average for a high performance bike. ($450)
Performance: Excellent once you get the hang of it. Awkward weight
Availability of Parts: Ehh, you can find 'em, but not the stock ones.
Durability: Havent broken it yet.
Skill: Intermediate, someone new probably shouldn't ride this bike.

As well as this is an idea, and a thoughtful way to help out, there are already lots of posts on this same thing. There are at least a few hundred threads telling people to get a DK Six Pack if they are beginners (not even kidding on the hundreds part). If they aren't beginners or have a bit of extra money to spend, people go for Fit Flows, Integral Bel-Airs, Stolen Heaters, and now the new Kink Roc. All of this has been stated many times. If we all post something up (which I doubt because there are a lot of really lazy people here), this may work. I doubt it, though.
The Goal is to stop those threads, they kind of take away from all the extra stuff in the BMX forum, for example how to do a specific stunt. If someone posts something like that, then we can redirect them to this thread and delete their "What bike should i get" thread, then it'll clean up this section of the forum nicely. Leaving room for questions and/or stories that dont get as much attention as they deserve because people are asking the same question over and over.
Speaking of that....we need to have a way for people to ask specific questions on a specific bike. This is a job for... THE ADMINISTRATOR!!!
Is the DK CINCINNATI any good?

I think that's still in my Gameboy from a few years back. I really want to pick it up again just to do that surfing minigame. I used to be the boss at that.

It was easily the best pokemon game, plus I had a lvl99 Gengar.
It was sweet to be able to do all the final pokemon league battles with just one pokemon.

Maybe because they aren't actually words...
