i ride bmx, but uhh, yeah there are alot of over prized prats out there now, like animal handlebars, and the new thing is odd colors on teh bmx, like a bright orange bike, or something, and if u dont have a 600 $ bike ur poor and arent a good biker, thats not the way i see it but thats how it is, parts are getting stronger, but highly overpriced, like 120 bucks down here, for a pair of 8 piece handle bars, that look totally gay, and are made with square tubing, and super heavy. dont know if i helped, im turning to mtn biking though., although a good mtn bike is ahrd to find, the cheaperst oen ive found is 500 bucks, and quite descent, if u want the link ask, and alot of bmx bikes, have quite being made, which were the better bikes }:]
