Hi all, I am a mtb guy, however Father Christmas is bringing my daughter a BMX bike. It is my absolute dream to ride with her and find a common goal. So to enable this to happen I need to get a BMX bike for myself.
I am 40 years old 5’9” and 70kg drenched (I also do endurance running).
So I need a new whip.
My budget is tight because ‘I am too busy thinking About my baby and I ain’t got time for nothing else’.
I am looking at the mongoose L100, kink gap, colony
What would you recommend.?
My upgrade budget is unlimited
Many thanks and much love

The colony is the best bike there. Full chromoly and double walled rims with sealed hubs.

The mongoose has that as well, are colony more ‘respected’ than mongoose as a brand?

as far as im concerned they produce more high quality products. the colony is also £150 more expensive than the mongoose too but it has a sale on but the higher price equates to higher quality.
