Default FAO BMXers .....

Theres a few serious BMX riders on here if i remember right. I've only really used mountain bikes and even still its been a couple years since i was into it. How much should i be looking to spend for a pretty good one? any specific newer bikes worth buying.

Wanted to spend £150-200 but would pay more for a proper one...

Been looking a these so far? any good?

have a look on winstanleys for their clearence bikes

http://www.winstanleysbmx.com/index....uicksearch=263

personally id only buy a bike from a rider owned company ie hoffman, s&m mirraco, fit etc who all do well built budget bikes

also look on ebay for some hardly used bikes, quite a few turn up on there which have just been ridden around and not been abused

also look on www.radbmx.co.uk in the for sale section
