Platypus22 Joined: 2007-03-07 Posts: 1 Location:	Okay, I was never a fantastic rider. I never got much farther than boomerangs, decades, or tailwhips. BUT, I want to start riding again. It'll be fun, and it'd get me out of the house and maybe in shape again. Who knows. My question: I'm a 32 year old guy who's 6'2" and 225 lbs. What flatland bike can I get into for not a lot of dough, that I won't bend into a taco because I'm too fat? Suggestions?

	look at flatlandfuel.com they have many flatland complete bikes, I suggest the DK signal. "there is no action without reaction"

	i dont really know but i might go to your local bike shop and ask about some frames and ask about stuff like frame flex because that could be more of the issue than brakinging your frame.other than that might i suggest - FBM Equilibrium -sick child bada bling(i ride that frame its pretty tight) -suelo simple V2 or the o6 model -sick child aquaduct -or the KHE frames. hope that help sam
