OS looking for NS Bike
Yall
I've been on my BMX (89 Master) a number of years and I have decided to retire it. There's been a LOT of change since the last time I bought anything BMX. So, what's a good bike to get? I'm 5'9 about 180lbs. It's easier to list the things I DON"T plan on doing: ramps/parks, or racing. I'll be doing pretty much everything else in between, though. I'd say dirt jumping and flatlanding will be the two I do most, but I will mos def ride some street since I live in Austin.
I'm not looking to fork out huge amounts of $$ in fact I got my eye on ebay and craigslist for my next ride. My main ride is my mtn bike, and that's where I want to keep my money flowing to. I'd like to stay around $200 for something used, but I may go up to $350 or so if something new in a bike shop is the best way to go. I don't want a TANK, but I do need something robust since I'm 180lbs and a hack on a BMX bike. I'd like something as strong as my Master, but not 40lbs... I am hoping technology has improved strength-to-weight ratios over the last 20 years haha.
