If your gonna use it for tricks thats a pretty good bike but if your just gonna use it for riding around its gonna be uncomfortable. bmx bikes aren't really made for sitting down you have to stand up to pedal because the seats are really low and i think the seats on the new eastern bikes are really small and plastic.

If its in good condition it's a fair trade but as far as bmx goes its not really anything special. Its a complete bike probably with a lot of crappy parts. You got any pics of the goped? Are you looking to trade it for a bike specifically? I might know somebody who has a bike willing to trade.

TWG, I wasnt looking for a bike specifically, I was just curious if it was a nice bike or not. I ended up trading the goped to someone else for a badass fishing rod and reel combo, calcutta 50b with a gloomis rod, so that is something i will actually use. I just figured i didnt really need a bike since im not into bmx. I think its awesome but i just dont see myself doing it. thanks though!! Birthday

-LoGiK-,I just traded it yesterday for an amazing fishing rod reel combo. But if you looking for a goped just check craigslist, you can get them for super cheap and they wont run good, but with a little work you can get them running good. I got mine for 40$ and barely put any money into it and it ran like a champ and was pretty quick!
