Hey all,
I'm considering buying a BMX.
I just joined up at my local BMX club and had my first few races last night and am loving it.
I was using a multispeed STP 2008 which seemed to do okay - please note that I am not going to convert it to single speed, this is not an option as I have just converted it back to a multispeed for a reason, so it's staying as is.
I have two options:
1) continue using my hardtail
or 2) Buy a BMX; basically, my friend (half a head shorter than me and a little lighter) is selling a GT 2010 BMX in excellent condition for $100.
Would this be a good bike for BMX Racing? Would it be worth getitng this and using it instead of my hardtail?
Note I would have to change the tyres over but other than that it seems good to go.
Here's the photo of the bike I'm considering buying.
Thanks in advance
