I have a KHE A-damn LT( 5 moths)  i like it very much, i started on a crome street bike, very heavy!

+ Its very light,it hase good bars,pegs,tires and a 3 pc crank.
- The only thing i would like to change is the brake, but ik still use the original one, but sometimes it gets stuck.

It is not that more expensive than the AM one but doesn't have the terrible giro, because it doesn't have a back brake

it's a problem if the LT doesn't have back brake? o it's good?

I always recommend beginners to use both brakes.

Baby steps....you can't walk before you can crawl,and you can't run before you can walk.

Bikes I'd recommend.

2010 DK Opsis

KHE A-Damn LT

OG Balance 3

There is a nice Suelo V1 for sale in the market place...I almost considered picking it up to have a second bike (and upgrade parts on my Opsis if I wanted to)...but money is tight,too tight.

I never used my back brakes from the start, so i don't mind, there are some triks you may need them for but i never do that type of triks ^_^

thanks a lot for the answers!!

I'm from Italy, take a BMX for USA it's a suicide  ;D

KHE AM

+ price, back brake
- probably, it's a brick bike after some months of practise

LT

+ very goood bike
- price, no back brake



I don't have too much money for my future BMX..

probably I take the LT, because I can't change the bike after some months (no ca$h!! ;D),

No back brake? I adapt at thi condition..

Thanks PZA, i am getting some new pads in this week! no odessey but Baradine, still thinking to upgrade the f set brake to a diatech hombre or something else.

And yes the seat is without padding, but if you use it for triks is great, i dont ride to a spot on it, if you do a new seat is needed.

On topic:
There is a rear brake included but is is a one hole mount type, therefore the don't need to put brake mount on the frame. And it is a pro/mid level bike and these group of flatlanders use 1 brake or no brake at all, they ar the target group. to make the backbrake work a giro needed ofcourse!

the choise is yours cervogia84 hope al the comment we give helps
