new 20" steed

[max123]

So right now I have a MOB with 24's(being sold check the classifieds) and im going to switch to a bmx. IM goin to sell my mob around 900 so Ill have around that much to spend. I don't know much about bmx so I need help deciding what frame/parts(mainly frame). I'm gonna mainly be riding street/park but will do the occasional trails. I am 5'7 and like to ride 20.5" frames(my friend has one I like). I dont weigh that much and wont ride that hard so it doesn't need to be the strongest ever, however I don't want to have to be super delicate with my parts or have to replace them. 25 lbs and under is my target weight. So far I have looked at(with no previous knowledge) FBM stairmaster, fly bikes 3 amigos, fit S3 series aitken model...

Any fit, metal, or s&m frame
or a solid AA frame.

what is good geo to looke for, what is the difference between some of those frames, what are some company's backrounds? etc.

I like my Fly 3amigos a lot. Super solid geo and great feel, plus it's fairly burly for the weight. You could put together a really nice build for 900.

You might want to consider a complete though to save yourself a headache. There's a lot to learn as far as parts compatibility, etc. The new Fit completes are ridiculously nice.

yup, the fit completes are the ticket...

mrk_d, when'd you move to spain???

I know ppl that have the fit completes and they weigh like 28+ lbs and feel not so good.
