Just remember, all this advice goes out the door if the bike is old school. An old school BMX bike can be worth $100's if not over $1000. A young kid might not want it to ride, but you could definitely flip it. People throw out rare bikes that are collected now like old cars.

Bought a 2014 Haro 350.1 for 100.00. Mainly because it has a 21” top tube. Being 6’1” it felt more comfortable. Some parts could use an upgrade. But overall would consider it a good buy.

Just picked up an almost imaculate 20.5" 2012 haro 200.3 for £60... it has every single low end component you just mentioned, unsealed us bb is shot to pieces but everything else is factory fresh. Restored the bb cups and cones with emery cloth and made it usable but will be upgrading to a sealed 19mm bb on pay day. Already upgraded the seat and as parts wear out ill upgrade them one by one. Not a bad deal for the price really.

Your explanations were awesome! Thanks for this video. I am researching to buy my son his first normal size, bmx style bike. I want to get him something better tham a Walmart Mongoose, but also cheaper than legit bikes...like $300 tops. I have found a Ruption Hacker for fairly low price, it has the standard external headset style, it does have a sealed mid style bottom bracket, 3 pc crank , and sealed hubs with the bigger 14mm rear axle. Would this be a decent starter for a 5'2" ish 13yr old? Also looked at a GT Air 2020, amd a couple im the $275-300 ramge, but it seems like getting a really good one I would have to step up to $400+...I figure if he gets really into riding, I can someday help him get a better GT/Kink/Stolen/Fit/Sunday/Haro/etc... Please let me know if the Ruption Hacker 2020(silver/chrome) , would be decent, or if you have a few other suggestions in the sub $300 range. Single dad raising 3 kids, so have to be somewhat budget conscious. Thanks again for the video.
@Brant_Moore
@Brant_Moore 4 жыл бұрын
So here’s the way I look at it..If you buy a bike now and end up needing an upgrade, you’ll have the first bike for another kid. If they’re all older and you don’t see yourself needing to ever buy another bike unless it’s an upgrade, you may want to spend the extra 100-150$ now instead of spending $300 now and then $400-$450 later. Most bikes at that $300 price range are the about the same bike, but sometimes you can find deals on previous years model and get something better for the same price.

Hi. Thanks for the video. I am getting back to biking and have a mountain bike I enjoy riding when I get the time. I recently saw a late 80's restored GT and fell back in love with bmx and brought back many memories. I want to get one just to commute through campus and I was wondering what your opinion is on trek bikes? Got one for free and looks like the seat, handlebars and pedals have been changed. Can I put better parts on the trek ? Is it even worh it? Are fit bikes good for beginners? Are Elite bikes from amazon good for beginners? Thanks in advance.

Back in the days of BMX Board I bought a used complete from a guy for $350. It was a Felt Sheriff (which I was not interested in) but all of the parts were aftermarket. Mostly Odyssey stuff: freestyle forks, Elementary stem, Wombolt cranks, sealed gyro, levers. It had a Thompson Elite seatpost, and Ti-spokes in the front wheel. All together I think it would have been around $1100 new. I sold the frame and bars (also Felt) and bought a Fly 3 Amigos frame, slapped on my Primo bars and pedals, my Macneil guard sprocket and I was all set. I've replace most of the parts since them but I'm still riding a few parts from that bike today.

It depends upon which one. It would be fine but parts would need replaced as you encounter issues

I bought a sub-$100 and rode tf out of it for a lil more than a year, it got me thru the worst of the learning curve of spins with several amateur wheel truings, one professional truing, and a donor set of wheels off a bike my buddy hadn't touched in a decade. It was a $98 Walmart Mongoose. Every single bad part mentioned was on it as well as very low rise handlebars, a 20" top tube which doesn't work well with my 6'1 frame, and tires made of nylon I believe?? Absolutely no grip to be had, but it served it's purpose to let me see if it was going to be a phase, or something I'd stick with before dropping serious cash on a new bike. There isn't really a BMX scene in my town, you're more likely to see a drunk guy pedaling past with a 12 pack on his shoulder.

I hot a miraaco icon for free. The frame is good. I rebuilding the bike but need some ideas for quality parts such as bottom bracket, headset and rims without breaking the bank?

Pretty much all headsets and bottom brackets are the same thing. Rims you want double walled and welded seams if you can. Alienation has options for that
