Sorry mate, not a crack, jus went an checked it over an its jus the reflection, cheers for taking the time to scan it that closely...

Any chance of saying why its that price? Do BMX parts depreciate that quickly? Chris. Oh yea, sorry bout the pics, coudlnt be bothered...

I bought this bike off ebay for £90 after doing a bit of research on the parts it seems that i got a pretty good deal. Im off to uni in a few weeks and was thinking of selling for something that could tackle the hills of Dorset a little better... ...Here's a parts list... Spec: Eastern big street BMX (frame/bars/forks) Demolition 3pc cranks Snafu pedals Eastern light bars Eastern 44t Chainwheel and bash guard (now using Profile 44t racing wheel) Wheels - Not a clue??? Tektro rear brake and calliper Eastern Grips Eastern Sadle Its still a bit grubby from cycling through flood water... Well, whats all the pics i have, so please, if you have a good eye for BMX parts, don't hessitate in valuing this bike.. Cheers, Chris.

Why you say not worth upgrading much? The frame does seem a it much, so once ive got the money i might buy another to test the difference in weight.

Cheers for that, as you can tell im only new to this... so cut me some slack... Yeah is it the 44-16 so its about right is what ur saying, cheers for your reply.

I've recently bought a bmx and I've found that the bike can be difficult to pull up at the front and hard to push off from a standing start. Im running a 44t chainwheel, is this too large for street? Once ive got some momentum its all good, i can keep the speed coming which i thought would be good for dirt jump... Any comments on which size is best for what sort of riding would be great. Comment comment comment.

Nah, for the frame size its suprisingly light, i got it for £95. Sorry, don't know about the freewheel, i'll take a look when i get home.

I bought this bike off ebay, i havnt done anything to it yet, just wondering what you thought of it before it give it a respray and some new parts... so far we have an: Eastern Big street frame....demolition 3pc cranks....snafu pedals....dunno bout the rest, take a look and see for urself... http://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4852/dsc02427db2.jpg http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/4672/dsc02432up5.jpg http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/3166/dsc02435gq1.jpg Commets Please Give it a mark out of 10, 10 being the highest and 1 being the lowest....

I work at B&Q they give good pay, but you got to be over 16 to work there, i was lucky i got there just before they decided they would stop 16yr olds gettin jobs there. The money is excellent, it's £5.15 an hour normal days and bout £7.80 on sundays. Im on bout £5000 a year. "You can do it when you B&Q it!" Chris

Shaun, best not write when your pissed ay?

I think im more intersted in riding mod, no offence to stock, its just i like the smaller style bikes. Probably because i've done a bit of BMX. Thanks anyway though. Buying two bikes would probably be a better idea, like manxrider says. Hey, know anywhere thats got a cheap BMX for sale? I'd be looking for sumthin around £45. Cheers. Chris

Hi, last time i posted was in new members chat, 'Getting Started'. Well now, i've hit a bit of a predicament. To pick the ideal bike i supose is a pretty tall order for someone with limited knowledge of bikes, let alone trials bikes. Im torn between practical, or a non-practical bike. If i were to get a trials bike and then decide that i dont really have the determination to keep riding, apart from re-selling it, whats it good for? On the otherhand, i have this bike, which i've seen for sale on ebay. Its been described as fit for trials and jump. Plus it has the practical use as a road bike if necisary. Is anyone else in the same boat? If you could post some pro's and con's about riding trials, that would be great. Cheers. Chris

True, Cheers for that. still, dave was funny taking the piss out of the Royal Mail kid, lol! "TEETH!" So, yeah, im looking for the T-pro now so, if you or anyone else knows of one thats goin at a reasonable price, let us know. Cheers Chris

lol, yeah, i thought someone would say something like that. Chris
