Well I`m thinking about doing 40+ cruiser, so I need a decent bike, can be second hand but needs to be complete with quality parts WHY ?

I'd go the Haro route, reletively cheap and a good bike to start racing on.

At the moment, I reckon the Haro and Redline bikes are the best complete bikes around (in terms of quality and value for money).

So either get the Haro from Phil/Wolfy or if you fancy a Redline check with Mark at Groove Racing.  Either way, you're getting a good bike and supporting a dealer that is committed to BMX racing.

What I was looking to do was buy a cruiser with decent parts on it, so that when Mike hopefully gets some TI ones made I can then just transfer the parts over  :daumenhoch:

Do they only come in one colour Mark ?

I got one of those today and took it to an A final win.  :LolLolLolLol:

I'd still prefer a Haro though if I was buying from scratch because the spec is better on the Haro. :daumenhoch:

Get a Proline. Ready to race straight out of the box with cassette rear hub, Rhinolite rims and Proline cranks. Bike feels SOLID. Took all of two motos to feel at home on mine on Sunday. Talk to my old mate Chris at Deens Garage in Beckenham 02086500630. Tell him Tim sent you. I got mine from him way cheaper than anywhere. He's also got a few 06 Flovals he's knocking out on the cheap. Have to say though, having ridden both the Redline had to be the way to go for me.
See you on the gate fella.
