Terrain Anaconda 20" BMX Bike


Catalogue number: 205-8898


SS10205-8898TPS598387.jpg Description

The cool silver and black Terrain Anaconda 20” BMX bike is great for jumps, tricks and blazing local trails. It features front and rear V-brakes for more effective braking and control as you ride.
This BMX bike is great for boys aged 8 years and above, with a rigid steel fork frame. Its 20" wheels offer the agility you'd expect from a BMX. To help you know whether this is the right bike for you, you can check your measurements against the bike - this one suits an inside leg measurement of between 50-70cm.

    All I'll say is that the snob's are quite correct that it's not a great bike. It was, however, a great first BMX for my boy as he'd never rode a bike properly (in fact he still can't at 9).

    The brake pads are poor, the nuts don't tighten over well and the seat post construction is poor.

    HOWEVER - this is £35 for gad's sake! What more do you want? Your children will love this for Christmas or a birthday. I'm getting another one for my 6 year old. for Christmas.

    Thanks OP. :money:
    I am firmly across the line. I won't impose my values on you if you keep away from mine.

    I read the reveiws on the bike on tesco direct after I had bought 2 a few weeks ago in store for my 9 and 7 year olds the reveiws are mixed, some good some bad, but i was quite concerned especially as my husband is quite a brand snob,and is the first to moan if something is poor quality!, i really thought he was going to say that they were c**p, but he put them together without a hitch, phew first hurdle over :T
    he then took off on one up the street to test it out :Dand my husband is not a small chap, when he came back he declared not a bad bike! so if it meets his aproval then they cant be bad
