k thanks, one more thing, do they work good at all (for fafufanus abubacus etc.)?
thanks Razz

They put them in the box for liability purposes, if you want to be doing brake tricks then get a frame with proper mounts.

I would think that they would be a bit weak
Or at least the stock ones
I know there's an Odsy one like the stock

It doesn't matter if they label the bike as a "street", "park", or "trail/dirt" bike. They are all the same thing. The only difference is brakes and tires. You can ride a park BMX on street just as easily as you can ride a street BMX in park.

If you like the STR 1 but want brakes, then get PRK 1 or TRL 1, because they are all basically the same bike.
