What kind of BMX bike should I get?

What kind of bike should i get a mountain bike or a bmx?

  • and what brand

  • Answer:

    If you can't decide between a mountain bike and a BMX bike you should get a street/ dirt jump mountain bike. They have 26 inch wheels, about 100mm of fork travel, and usually single speed. Haro makes some excellent ones. like the Thread or Steel Reserve. Also try Giant or Specialized or Kona for some different brands. Any dirt jump bike from any of the brands I listed will start at about $800 new so I'd try to find one on Craigslist.

If you just like messing around and doing tricks, get a bmx, but otherwise they are pretty much useless. If you actually like bike riding, get a mountain bike. Don't get hung up on brand. There are tons of brands out there and they all make good bikes and bad, and many of them won't be available to you. Go to an independent bike shop and ask some questions. Not some makes and models that fit your budget and then come back online and see what people have to say about them.

Depends on what you're wanting to do. If you wanna go off road and over hills get a mountain bike. But if you wanna go fast and do tricks and flatland freestyle get a bmx. Some good bmx brands are Haro, dk and diamond back. Hope this helped.
