I Need A New Bike
Hey Guys. I'm new to the forum, and I have some questions...
I want a new bike that is fairly light weight, has a 3 piece crank, V-brake on the back, 3/8 front axle, 14mm rear axle, slim handlebars, tough chain and sprockets. I'd primarily use it for ramps/grinding stuff. What I DO NOT WANT is a very heavy flatland bike. I don't like flatland, and I don't want that type of bike.
1st Question...
What is the name for a bike that can be used for ramps/grinding stuff?
2nd Question...
Are there any bike models out there that have a most of the components I listed?
The easiest thing to do would be to build my own, but that is costly. I'm trying to find one that has what I want, but is "mass manufactured" if you would say, which would make it cheaper.
