What's a cool BMX brand for a young teenager?
Haro? WTP?
Cheers

If your BRistol based I know a place with super deals on WTP.
How old are they?
How much do you want to spend?
What type? (race, FS, DJ, FL)
About £300, about 12/13 years old...won't be for racing - just for looking cool and roaming around...
wtp or fit are a good bet. My mate has a wtp Arcade, very good for the money.
Cheers all, mucho appreciated
Talk to Stodgy in the rad bmx shop, he's yer man, always ready to do a deal.
They have the [url= http://www.radbmxshop.co.uk/shop/article_442.001/WeThePeople---Arcade-2011.html ] arcade[/url].
But I think the [url= http://www.radbmxshop.co.uk/shop/article_443.001/WeThePeople---Justice-2011.html ]justice[/url] is sweeter..
united are pretty cool, and they're british!
look at alansbmx.com or sourcebmx.com for various bicycles around that price point ..
I don't think they have quite the credibility of WTP, but the Mirraco on offer from CRC looks pretty sweet.
Having said that - I'd think a front brake might not be a bad idea.
I’ve just got my son a Mirraco Mi6 from CRC, and the spec is right up with WTP and Pilgrim and for the price £250 it will be hard to beat.
Front brake? Thats what your foot's for :-p
They all come with a front brake as it’s a legal requirement, having said that not sure how good the brake actually is 😯 may be just for show to get past the H&S bandits
the ripper is a race bike.
I race one and to good effect. I loves it.
Front brake is not cool with the kids....
talk to stodgy at radbmx.co.uk
Dunno if this guy would be any use to you http://www.alphabmxshop.com/ ? OK, ill grant you that the websites rubbish, but if you ring up and have a word with munger he'll sort you out. The guys lived, breathed and ate bmx all his life.
Bought a Kink Whip at the cycle show - it was a demo down from £409 to £300. Lovely bike to ride, and I had it signed by all the riders including Matt Priest. Son1 had to fight through the crowds of onlookers at school, it out-cooled his Kona MTB, track bike, road bike and KMX!!!
Of course buy a large frame full cromoly - and ride it yourself when son isn't looking.
whatever it is, brush paint it matte black or anti radar green with some ridiculous fluro bars/ forks combo.
Raleigh Burner?
A re-issue one.
Cool as. 8)
Verde,Sunday,Fit,Subrosa,Federal,Kink,Cult,United,Volume,FBM.
