Email me. I have a really nice one for sale, brand new. 🙂

Check my recent posts for pics and description 🙂
It'll be half the price of something just as good brand new. Bang on your budget.

Sorry to say but at that price you might struggle. Most new branded stuff starts at about 200-220
Try winstanleys for mail order deals

Oh and if you want the brakes to work avoid a gyro

Here you go.

That's better than the bike I used to ride some years ago by quite some margin. If I were you I'd rip my arm off for it.

Will vouch for the above. Used to work in a shop selling a few low end BMX's, all were crud aside from the GT's.

We bought our 9 and 6 yr olds ones off gumtree a few months ago for £40 each. They have Isla bikes for proper rides and the bmx's for kickin around with their pals. Do the job but heavy and the gyro brakes are crap.

[url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=66514 ]This is what she will want[/url]

A bit more than 150 but worth it because a: it's a decent bike and b: this is what a bmx looks like now - it's what she'll be after.

pp's bike isn't bad but be aware that it is an entry level race bike. I doubt that's what she'll be after...
