i'm want to get back into bmx after 20 years away so can quite honestly say i've lost touch with it all. as much as i'd like to do an old school build i've now got a son who has a nasty habit of wrecking his mx bike and a daughter who's into horse riding so any spare ££ goes there way these days. so i'm looking at buying a complete bike. i've been looking in the usual places net and ebay and have found these :

i'm not planning on doing anything too  major on it probably a spin around rom and a ride around some tracks with my son. any info on what's out there or recommendations would be appreciated.
cheers

Welcome Gareth, glad you intend to ride as well...

Dont listen to Trev, there are about 40 of us in the london/essex area that regularly race old school bikes and we cant get enough of it :daumenhoch:

i'm 5' 11" and would go for how it rides first. my last bike was a trickstar which i liked as it seemed to have alot steeper head angle and felt taller to sit on than what my friends were riding performers prolites etc. so something with that sort of geometry/ feel
