I have a predicament (kind of)
I have a couple of oldschool bikes, now I am seriously thinking about buying Nuschool:
a) so I CAN RIDE AND NOT WORRY TOO MUCH ABOUT THE BIKE
b) so I can take up the sport properly
Now, this leads me onto the next question :
I live in Birmingham, have No local track, although I love riding round the track, it seems pointless buying a race bike.
I love the look of Flatland, especially because it resembles the oldschool free-style...
Freestyle and ramp is coool but, I dont think Im mad enough to do it
So, how best can I get involved in Flatland and what kind of bike would I be best looking into buying as a beginner ?
Cheers guys, :daumenhoch:

sam, dont do it go race /dirt when redditch is back up and running track/trails and skate park all on one site
-
what you need then is a nice mid school ride,street ramp and flatland styles of riding
can quite easily be done on one of these as frame angles resemble old school on some.

buy this :knuppel2:
Ready to rock :daumenhoch:
