Just getting back into BMX and looking for good street bike in the $350 range that i can easily upgrade with parts in the future. I'm mainly gonna be riding in the streets of SF and gonna try to hit some parks in the region. i'm fairly experienced with grinds and bar spins so i's looking for a bike to shake the rust off. Haven't rode in about 6 years so i'm not familiar with the new bikes..oh and i'm about 5'9 180. any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.:)

Well, if steel and stunts are your forte, try to find a vintage Montello and do it up fixie styles.

I hear they're pretty daggum crazy with'em.

I'd recommend this bad boy I saw at wal mart awhile ago; snake skin tires, 3 piece cranks, alloy pedals, and an INTERNAL GYRO. all that and more for almost a third of your budget, you can't get quality like that anywhere else

And we fixed it so that your caps lock still won't let you type in all caps to show how angry you are. The horror!

Did you happen to have a look at all the other "What bike should I buy" threads?
