SE is a fantastic bike company all their products are great. I just don't feel anything 29'' is a BMX though. to me a 29'' seems more like a fixie MTB to be honest. I think you'll have fun on it though.

Bikes: Too many to list
I want one of the BMX 29'ers too --- I am stationed in Savannah GA with work and its flat as a pancake here ---- I have my mtb and road bike needs covered back home, but I could add a fun bike like this to the stable and get some exercise
I kind of want the "Big Ripper" because of the more conservative graphics schemes --- but I cant see that the parts list is worth $100 more -- they look functionally identical
Oh -- and I am officially an SE fanboy ---- I've hit the track with this OM Flyer (pictured below)) on a number of occasions with minimal changes over stock , -- (Grips were horrible so a pair of A'Me's solved that, and SPD pedals and a better seat were mandatory , --- wheels have held up fine, - tires squirm a bit in asphalt berms, but other than that the bikes are good to go
I have bought my nephew a 20" Quadangle in the past and he now rides this OM with some lower mountain bike bars and stem
