Best Manufactured BMX Bikes

If I can find it at wall mart I tend to not want to buy it. All my local Bike shops carry the same model and makers of bmxers as wally world. Any body got a clue who's still independently manufacturing them?

Your best bet might be finding a nice lighter bmx frame from the old days at a garage sale or ebay then building it...

I built from an old hutch frame once

Plus the flat rectangular gooseneck and half-moon pegs were so dinosaur old that they looked cooler than anything i had ever found before + the lightness factor

That's what I'm doing. Garage sales and mangling together a bmx bike. I'm trying to try different sized wheels on it so now I'm looking for wheels.

re: Best Manufactured BMX Bikes

I all depends on what you want to do with your bike. There arr different styles to riding from Street to Race and from Flatland to Trail.

There are a lot of great bikes out there but you have to know what you want. I have two bikes, one of them is 40lbs and the other is 25/26lbs. I bought the lighter one because its a pro bike. There are a lot of companies out there but not like the old days. I had a Haro, GT, Redline, Elf, Hutch, Schwinn but these days companies are different, riders are different.

Companies like;
United
WeThePeople
Subrosa
Eastern
Etnies
2 Hip
DK
Verde
(I would be cautious on FIT bikes, their completes sometimes dont have good parts.)

All of these can be orders at places like Dans Comp (DAN'S COMP - BMX Bikes, Parts, Clothing, Shoes and Accessories!) or Action Village (Paintball, Skateboard, BMX, Airsoft, Apparel and Snowboard Gear at ActionVillage.com) < where I got mine.

The bikes are out there and they are pretty sick, I know mine is and I love it for riding street.
