for brand new bikes £200 is low end but will get you something decent have a look on winstanleys website,
£300 is higher end may come with better cranks and so again shop around ive seen bike prices as different as £50 between one shop and another,
if your looking in the £300 range check this link

Never buy any BMX from Halford!
My advice would be to spend as much as you can afford, email Alans or custom riders (you can google them if you don't know there addresses) tell them what you want the bike for (Street, Parks, Dirt jumping) tell them how tall you are and what your budget is.
They may take a day to reply but thyey will give you a few places to start.
I bought a DK Cleveland a few months back and i'm well pleased with it.....there are much better bikes out there but my budget was small at £220.

spend your new bike budget on a used bike

As per Rarman's link above. The complete Ilegal bike is excellent value for money. At £300 for a brand new complete bike, this is about as good as it gets. The frame alone retails at £200 and it is a very light frame too.

i was into flatland about 10 years back and have never been on a track. but i would like to try track some day. i don't want to spend loads of money as idon't have much time to ride. i like the look of the ilegal bike. would like to ride one.
