COMMENT FOR FUTURE VIDEO IDEAS!!!!

[@jusbamathy1355]

exactly the info i was looking for. Thank you for the post!

[@MiguelCortez]

You got it 😎👌

[@emanthegman9511]

It took me 7 years to realise I needed a longer frame, because I'm 5'5....but my arms are freakishly long, like think of "upgrade" from Ben 10 that'll give you an idea 😂

[@MiguelCortez]

Hahah glad you found the video helpful good luck !

[@waywardshed9721]

This was really helpful man, been looking at it because my young fellow is getting into it, tired of walking to the skate park and watching him have all the fun 🤣

Hey! We've both been doing RC videos too. Cool. I bought a used Kink Gap xl only rode for 5mins from an older rider looking to get back into it. Saved $200. I'll be riding mostly dirt but want to try some flatland too. I wanted to do flatland since I was a kid.

[@MiguelCortez]

Awesome to hear 👍

Can you please recommend some brands for beginners that you like under $400? Do you have an opinion on mafia Kush bikes?

[@MiguelCortez]

I did in the video

[@Archie_sing]

How do u break?(I’ve not watched the video yet so just in case)

[@singletona082]

I'd almost say go for a cheap walmart bike. Ride the everloving hell out of it. Just like... ride it like it's a rented mule. use that to find out if you want to actually get in the hobby. I would consider that a sort of last resort sort of thing though. I'm with Miguel here. Check craigslist or marketplace first. Even something used, so long as it isn't all siezed up and has been taken care of, will give you a better experiance than a chineesium walmart bike. And i say this as someone who's got a walmart bike that I actually enjoy.

[@MiguelCortez]

Good points 😎👍

[@singletona082]

@@MiguelCortez I mean not everyone is going to be near a local bike shop (I'm an hour away from the three nearest ones and it only gets worse from there.) So like... connect through facebook. Connect through reddit or discord. Try forming that local community of riders if you can.

[@Jaymendezofficial]

What bmx bike would u recommend for someone who has experience riding flat ground but hasnt rode in a few years due to finance complications, is 5'11, 120 lbs, performs best on street and flat ground, and wants to have a sick setup?

[@MiguelCortez]

Get a any complete fit cult Sunday they’re budget friendly.

thank you very much.Quick shipper.Good Product.

[@turtlex7821]

I’m 14 and recently started getting into riding but I’m still extremely sketched out about buying a bike due to the lack of income I have (of course this is due to my age and COVID) so I was wondering if you could recommend a bike I can buy online for roughly 250 I am going with buying online because I have no local shops with bmx bikes besides Walmart and I already know that’s not a good choice. Also like I said I’m new so I’m sure I’ll be comfortable with whatever you bring up I’m like 5’3 or 5’4.

[@MiguelCortez]

Try looking on second hand websites, a brand new bike at 250$ won’t be good quality

[@turtlex7821]

Miguel Cortez ok thank you that’s good to know

[@gokublack_2009]

if i wanted to ride all 4 but only wanted 1 bike could i still do that or not?

[@takeyari2124]

Hi, I want a bike to do street stuff like grinds and some flatland, I'm 5'10, could you tell me what top tube length I would need?

[@MiguelCortez]

Find a flatland specific frame the geometry is a lil different

[@michach_]

Used bikes are sometimes a good deal i bought mine for 150 dollars it was premium full crmo with second frame and wheel. You just need to do some research about the parts maybe ask someone on your local skatepark if they have bikes to sell. I think that complete bikes are overpriced often and that's why i recommend buying used bike
