New bike
« on: October 31, 2006, 10:53:11 PM »
When i was younger i did alot of BMX racing, and some freestyle. Now that im getting ready for the police academy (march) i find myself wanting to bike alot more than i used too. I know that i want a bike with offroad tires, shocks, and disk breaks but i do not know exactly what to look for. I know alot of you guys are real into bikes and such, so i am hoping you can help. My budget is 150-200, it may expand some in a month or two but i am really looking to do this soon. Walmart (i know, lol) actually has a good sale on one now but it is not disk brakes.

I am looking at this one as well, since mongoose was the type of BMX bikes i raced:

I will be doing offroad and onroad, but mostly off. The type of trails i will be riding are hills, drop offs, rythmx, and shark downhill turns with banks on the sides. Alot of really fun stuff.
