I'm getting into BMX and I'm wondering what would be a good bike for me to get onto. Whats your opinion?

Depends on how much money you have. I wouldnt buy a cheap bike at all, I bought a cheap bike and then I ended builing one from scratch. I am actually selling my bike. Im selling it for 500, it has over 1000 dollars in parts and the frame and cranks have only been ridden on once. If you wanna know more let me know, I have pics and a parts list, if not Good Luck!

u shouldnt waste your money on a cheap bike you will just be wasting your money and youll need to buy new parts for it, its just easier to save up and get a nice bike. get a dirtbike classic, theyre cheap light and strong
