Hey guys, I have a dirt jumping bike currently but want a bmx style one as well for other things including street which I have been enjoying more and more on my dirt jumper. Looking for a starter bike, is this a good choice?

Yea it's a decent little bike. The wheels would be the first thing to upgrade.

Okay, right now its right in my budget at around $350. Thanks.

Yeah, looks like a pretty sweet bike for the money. What type of riding do you do? Street, park or dirt? Because If you ride a lot of dirt, you may want to look into something with a slacker head tube angle... but for park and street that thing will be just fine.

IDK, my friends and I might have a large field and some heavy machinery at our disposal this in the near future to build a dirt jump track, but I have a DJ 300 framed bike with just a ton of random components, it was thrown together for $300 from my local bike shop and it rides great, but I don't know which I will use more for jumping, probably the DJ 300 just to get used to jumping then maybe switch to BMX for more tricks.
