    I’m looking for an 18″ BMX for mini greaser #2. Does anyone have any recommendations? Even some tips on what to look for would be great as currently going on cromo frame or not and total weight. Budget is probably ~£300 and intended use is local skate parks and streets.

    My eldest (8yo) has a Saracen Amplitude Source. Pretty good for the money, hes not broke anything yet. Cheap BMX’s wont be light but he pedals it up hills fine.

    I asked this same question on here & the answer was get him a 16″ bike.
    He’s 8 & it’s a much better fit.
    So bought him a Diamond Back too.
    It’s bloody ace.

    Taki, mines quite tall so the 18 was fine when he was 7, hes growing at a mighty rate so very glad I got the 18.

    I did notice alot of the bikes are pretty much the same frame & spec but with different colorwayz.
