Is there anybody who BMX's? I don't even know the verb for it but I wanted some help about BMX
I bike a lot with my mountain bike but nothing too extreme.
Half of my friend's bmx and they let me borrow them bmx'es so i bmx too :) So take that.
well I wanted to buy a bike, and I don't really know which one to buy. So I wanted some help by someone who actually knew about bikes
Look for weight and frame.I think 26 size frame would be good for you,also look at weight,if you want good,then choose bmx not heavier than 10 kg..And price too.The more expensive,the better.Remember,kids.
Lol how do you know if 26 is good for me if you don't know my weight and height?
but umm I saw this ad here, I think its ok, affordable price for me, although a bit expensive. can you show this to your friends and ask them?

I'm just saying this one because its frame is made out of CR-MO and not Hi-Ten Steel
Otherwise I'd buy a brand new Diamondback Grind 20

Also,this one's frame is too small.Except if you are very skinny,i wouldn't recommend you this bmx.
Also,frame's form are bad for specific tricks.
I'm 1,86cm and 70kg or around that. So skinny and tall
so hat would you recommend?

also, it would be for cruising, and I'll try flatlanding, but just for curiosity

mostly around the city, since I havent found a skatepark around here yet
[QUOTE=D3TBS;32342035]mostly around the city, since I havent found a skatepark around here yet[/QUOTE]Then i wouldn't recommend buying bmx for you at all.You see,if you just ride the city and do no tricks,you will get bored at this soon.The beauty of bmx shines in sk8 parks.
according to this, it says a 22 is minimum
[QUOTE=D3TBS;32342091]according to this, it says a 22 is minimum[/QUOTE]at what?
woops, this

I'm very ripped (I'm professional cyclist and bodybuilder),and my friend are too,not so low,and we ride at 28,when according to this,we should ride ant 26
Also,this calculator is wrong,because bmx frame size also are depending on weight.
well but what discipline are you in? cuz I heard that for flatland smaller ones would be better
also, then what bike should I buy?
I'm trying to go through used bikes because If I buy a brand new it would be shitty
I'm also looking up here, but I can't really recognize sizes just by looking at the pics

Like this.
But if germany doesn't have a sk8 parks,then sure Lithuania is advanced country in street life.
Also,that's just one of our new sk8 parks opening ceremony.
I dunno, I just moved here so I haven't explored much of the cities underground things etc
Also, I dont really want to spend more than €200.. Dunno if buying seperate pieces is better or not but if its better i don't really mind. Can you help me out with this? And how come you go into tournaments when you dont have a bmx yoruself?

thats why I was looking for a used one who's original price would be around 350~. But if you r buddy got one worth 1.5k for 300 then how come I can't come up with something thats worth something for 200?
