hey. i have an old redline with a decent stem rims and crank. Im looking 2 buy a frame and forks. What would be a good set? im looking 2 spend 300 dollars and down. thnxs
Well for a fork i would get an oddysey fork, i would get the director which is $150 or you could get like a race/dirt/freestyle one for cheaper. For a frame it's hard to get one for $150 to $200 look at dans comp.

what do you guys think of the stolen cheater frame? http://www.danscomp.com/211213.php?cat=FRAMESFSD
I wouldn't reccomend getting it. It's a stock bike frame.
http://www.danscomp.com/353241.php?cat=PARTS Get the oddysey dirt fork which i just put the link down for in one of the color's that's not black and it is $85 so you will have $215 for a frame.
Here are some frames i would reccomend for that price.
http://www.danscomp.com/211317.php?cat=FRAMESFSD Sputnic Satelight V2A
http://www.danscomp.com/211184.php?cat=FRAMESFSD Mutiny Sinister
http://www.danscomp.com/211314.php?cat=FRAMESFSD Proper Proclaimer
I would go with the Sputnic out of all those. I hope this helps.

well u helped on the forks. i found someone that sold me a frame earlier today. its a dk general alliance. i got it for 30 dollars
Bowhunter. I don't think there is any frame by DK called a general alliance. I bet you mean General Lee.

ya wow im sorry haha im looking at a bow right now and its the alliance lol haha typo.
You got the frame for $30. i've seen complete general lee's for $50 on craigslist. What was the frame you had before? Oh a redline. I guess that's better than a redline.

I don't like Redline even more now. They dropped Bubba Harris because he broke his wrist. He's been with them for 8 years. That's loyalty.
Are you serious. That is so gay. He should be able to get better sponsors though.

Yeah, I don't know if he'll even go factory again. He might just go dR's route and get a crapload of smaller sponsors. But he could easily be picked up by another factory team.
And why do you have to get a new hub?
Yeah. That's lame. Just because he broke his wrist. He is one of the best bmx racing riders.
Which bmx racers are gonna be in the olympics?
bowhunter236
07-26-08, 01:39 PM
it broke. the bearings inside blew up and the hub cracked.
Street rider
07-26-08, 01:46 PM

That sucks. Now your gonna have to buy a new hub.
bowhunter236
