Right now its not about your bike being good, becasue u can always uprgrade or get better parts. But, from what i see, it seem spretty ok, id change the hiten bars and im not sure but aluminum for the frame is kinda weak. All in all its a pretty good beginner bike though

alu frame....

uh yeah. your gonna have to get a new frame before the years over.

it doesnt matter what kinda bike you have right now, could weight anything or whatever, just has to be reliable. Fix things that break as you go.

Hey Ben,

Ignore some of the idiots in here lol, they'll do you more harm then good.

Ive been riding for about seven or so years and this is the advice I give to the up and comers.

Start out just with any old bike, your not gonna be hucking back flips so what you can get is good.  If your set-up is prett light then its good for you, you dont want anything to heavy because it'll hurt your back and other limbs and that'll suck in the long run.  Start out just going to a local skate park and getting used to the transitions and just getting your courage up to try stuff.  Try to go on non peak days so that you dont get intimidated by other riders.  Work on your bunny hops first and google a  little how to site if you have trouble with learning them.  Durning your course of starting to ride your gonna change alot on your bike, dont let any trend-followers or anyone stop you from changing your bike to your liking.  Have fun, and dont forget that this is a sport that you should only do if you love, not if you wanna make money!


Good Luck!

Joe M
