My son is turning 13 and I want to buy him a bmx for the skate park.. but I know alot of bmx bikes are not capable of withstanding the harsh bumping and grinding at the skate park. I dont want to spend over $600 if possible. Something available in western sydney would be great!

Thanks :)

Try to get him a bike that has a 100% chromoly frame or a chromoly main frame (main frame is head tube,toptube,downtube,and seat tube) as chromoly is both lighter and stronger then Hi-Ten steel tubing of the same diameter and thickness.

Colony is a bmx company based out of Australia I believe.

FIT makes the FIT Park 2 and the PRK 3 and the FIT TECH 2.5

other companies to look into:

DK
Stolen
WTP (We The People)
Standard
Black Eye
Sunday (made by Odyssey)
Subrosa
Eastern
2-Hip
Kink
FBM
Macneil
Hoffman
