hey im lookin at getin a new frame as i dont like the feel and look of my 08 norco 125 frame. im looking for something light,durable and strong. id also prefer it to have mtb bb instead of bmx and it will also need to have size 27.2 seat post. if anyone can give me advice on links as to what they think will be suitable for me i would much appreciate it. just some extra points- i will b mainly riding dirt jumps and street but will do the occasional light downhill race and drops plus stair sets. my price range is also around the 400-500 mark
If your budget is 400 to 500 get a black market mob on ebay right now any size any color for 450 shipped! My budget was 250 to 300 so I had to settle on a riot but let me tell you w/same geo as the mob its PERFECT. I use to race BMX and ride street and half pipe and trust me you will not be disapointed. Not to mention the resale for down the road.
thanks man but not really likin da look of it and it wouldnt go with the parts on my bike atm. im considering buying a black or white mob frame off ebay for 450 american and get a bb and cranks for it then putting my other parts on it . just an idea but also wat bb and cranks would u recomend?
im not sure aye. something cheapish but also strong and reliable and will be able to fit the mob frame,or riot if i cant get that extra 300 odd together. if u keep up to date with these posts i will add some pictures of what im intending to buy thnx jack
I'd go with with a BMX crank. Some are just as light as a MTB crank, just as strong and most cost less, plus they look better on a DJ build! Profiles, Demolitions or Colony's would be 3 that you should look at...they are the 3 lightest BMX cranks out right now and all are around $200 USD price. Good luck!
