I found the eastern shovelhead is quite nice, Amity are good they run well and look the part aswell. Mafiabikes are new out and are really cheap, everything you would want in a bmx for around 200 quid

Don't listen to this kid eastern makes great bikes as long as you get an 09 and up and not a nitro or whatever their shit sister company is called. I've seen just as many pics of broken Sunday's, fits, wtp, and kink as I've seen eastern. Look at mine it's pretty sexy to eh? I've had it almost a year and a half and I've had absolutely no problems with it except the chain had to change. And I ride the bitch hard!! I've said it before and I'll say it again I break myself more than I break my eastern. Annnd you can run it either rhd or lhd, sorry for the rant I just f*cking hate eastern haters. The follow the heard of haters like sheep and should be castrated. Best wishes!

whatever man, i wouldn't buy one... you'd get better value for money if you buy, say a high end Verde complete, or WTP ect. there are plenty of threads covering this.

I don't like eastern, and you do... lets agree to disagree.... however there are hundreds more people who share my dislike for their products.

I AGREE, my eastern is amazing never had a problem with it ! a lot of people hate eastern for no reason and i dont think that you should unless you have tryed one, but lots of there actual parts rather than complete's arnt that great tbh.

federal lacey frame
really good frame, the head tube angle is nothing to worry about it feels fine
i use mine for trails street and park and it's perfect for them all and so strong, feels rock solid
i ride mountain bike as well and the high stand over on the lacey makes it feel less different
make sure you get the right size top tube though
mine's been properly thrashed for a good year and a bit and it's awesome Big Grin

i bought a 2011 wtp trust recently and i must say its by far one of the best complete's i have ever ridden. personally it rides better then my custom macneil whitton 4 i used to have with the exception of the tires being shitty compared to the eclat's i had on my macneil
