quick Q
« on: February 09, 2009, 05:09:45 AM »
Hello
I'm new to the forum so forgive me if this is the wrong spot or already a topic!
But I am also vary new to flatland never rode flatland before, but I am working on a project flatland BMX.
So anyway I was just wondering what the best gearing for a beginner flatland rider is going to be and how important is a free coaster? becuase I'm on a budget of as cheap as I can get away with so... thank you for any and all help!
:)

anything with 4 pegs and front brake is usable for starting flatland.

the rest is just privilege.

Okay, cool thanks
EDIT: the huffy has a 1' head tube instead of a 1 1/8  so will a 1 1/8 gyro still work?
