What Bike (new to dirt/trail)
 
Okay Let me start by saying im new to forum and i read the first 8 pages. I've noticed you all say use search button well i dont wanna. I used to race bmx 13-17 than i got a license. I rode gt i build my own bikes and all that good stuff anyways. I'm looking to get into dirt jumping now and trail riding maybe some street with it. Thru all posts i came conclusion you all said a dk six/eight pack or "fit". I dont know the new bikes but i dont want either (i know dk aint new) Im lookin spend 500-700 on a complete dont wanna customize just a nice complete thats not super heavy

I'm 21 5'11 165

http://www.danscomp.com/101769.php?cat=BIKES (we the people Boyond)

http://www.danscomp.com/101533.php?cat=BIKES (Integral bel aire)

http://www.danscomp.com/101422.php?cat=BIKES (Stolen Heater)



So are any of those a smart choice for all specs i gave or am i way off for dirt (Main dirt/trail) Some street type of bike?


Help please and no spam its waste of me reading it.

Out of the bikes you listed the stolen is by far the best.

eightdip 10-04-06 09:08 AM

I like the sound of the bel air personally

FitRider 921 10-04-06 12:44 PM

I like the stolen and it is arguably the best complete out right now.

BROCK SAMPSON 10-05-06 03:37 AM

Yeah I'd go for the Stolen, the belair looks good too but meh.

Well isnt that a dumb answer.

Get the Bel Air.
Primo makes nice stuff.

FitRider 921 10-05-06 12:38 PM

So does Stolen and Shadow (which just so happens to make up most of the Stolen bike).

mude 10-05-06 01:02 PM

go with the bel aire. the parts on both are ridiculously good but the 30t chainwheel will be better than the 25 for dirt.

BaDfISh 10-05-06 05:10 PM

so couldn't i get the stolen and buy a new chainwheel ? also is the top tube to big on that for me? 20.75

bmxrdr88 10-05-06 08:34 PM

Bel-air!

BaDfISh 10-05-06 08:39 PM

Whats the all around better brand in biking between bellaire and stolen cause like i said 700 dollars to play with i can get it and a chainwheel and some upgrades you know just buy them with it in the order.

FuzzyRyder 10-05-06 10:11 PM

Stolen.

BROCK SAMPSON 10-06-06 03:31 AM

Yeah Stolen.

BaDfISh 10-06-06 01:08 PM

Any suggestions on a chainwhell i should order with my bike or some new handlebars to maybe or what does the stolen need that i should buy n replace right away?

FuzzyRyder 10-06-06 01:16 PM

Nothing.

bmxrdr88 10-06-06 02:59 PM

id go with the bel-air, and get a new stem, and an animal sprocket.

Rather ironic, given the quality of your post.

I'd say you didn't read this post.

Ebonics? More like "hooked on phonics". Ebonics happens to be a sickass song. Which also happens to be found in Animal All Day...

Go with the stolen, ride it until you break something (should take a long time). Replace/upgrade what you break.
