try the trek soho. It can bar spin easily, is hecka durable, and won't kill your wallet.

And throw some green deep v's, pink cranks, and blue oury's on it and it's tarck ready for tricking, I would know since that is my friends bike. In his defense the pink cranks were used dura-ace that he got for $8 after he stripped one of the crank arms.

if you're gonna do tricks get the scrambler, I hear you can do barspins on 700c wheels although the frame itself is ugly as sin but its cheap as dirt!

You can barspin a 55cm and bigger with a 700x23c tire.
Our next round got delayed till around April- we only have 59cm and 61cm in stock- but we will deal on those while they last!

tell me
Would this bike be able to fit a 14mm axle. As if to persay im going to take a cassette hub maybe 36h or 48h and put it on a deep v then put it on here i dont know if this would work or not. Since this bike is half bmx i could put a whole bmx drive train on it probably rock a 28/10. AND im not going to make it a fixie cause fixies are gay i just want something i can coast and jump up and down curbs and not break or crack anything and survive my abuse.

That's pretty much what all these "fixed gear freestyle" bikes are... only with steep angles.
Not that i have problem with them, if my san jose ever dies, i'll just end up replacing it with some super beefy trick bike and add canti boses and disk mounts.
Most indestructible cross bike, ever.

IRO Mark Vs are pretty good for tricks. I think ur handlebar/fork setup are really important to setting the bike up for flatland stuff.
