I got my old bike stolen, haro x2, so im buying a new one.

For this bike i'd like to build one myself w/ custom parts but the total is too high for my budget. It's $600 and i can't get it lower.

The complete bikes go for a lot cheaper then if i built it myself so i guess i have to start looking at those for my bike.

I've been eyeing the eastern element '08.

It's fairly decent, it has a good weight, small chainwheel (better for mistakes on ramps and jumps), 3pc, double wall rims. Now it's not all name brand parts like snafu and etc but its not bad. The white color scheme is bad ass.

What do you think about that bike?

My budget is $200-400

http://www.easternbikes.com/ is the url if you need specifications.

I got a couple comments saying easterns are crappy and use ****ty parts and that i should do fit.

Should i get this bike?

i'll prolly take all the stickers off since the pink is gay but other then that i looks bad ass, hope its not a girl bike, since the 2 color combos it comes in looks like a girls bike

...
Any one???!??! help plz
