Strictly BMX (http://www.strictlybmx.com)
Most of those WTP's are over 1g personnaly i could go the Specialized Fuse IV...which is only $999...and it is LHD...(left hand drive)
here...probably one of the best bikes i have seen around!

or go to cycology for a sick ass deal on one of their volume bikes...
And BTW if you are starting BMX i would recomend none of those BMX's only due to their specs and geometry...

If your a noob at BMX just get an WTP 'Addict'.
They are around $599-$650.
Then upgrade parts which break first (EG - Rear Wheel). Most of the Parts on the Addict are 4130 Chr-Mo (forks, bars and frame) and the rest is all sealed (eg- BB and Hubs)!
EDIT - The Specialized Fuse IV is abit over kill for a beginner.
EDIT 2 - I am bored so here are the prices...
WTP - Nova USA BB 05 - $550
WTP - Addict USA BB 05 - $699 (I didn't think they were that much :mad: )
WTP - Daredevil USA BB 05 - $699
WTP - Div AM Euro BB 05 - $965
WTP - 4Seasons AM Euro BB 05 - $1055
WTP - 4Seasons Pro Euro BB 05 - $1290
WTP - Thrillseeker AM US BB 05 - $1025
WTP - Thrillseeker Pro USA BB 05 - $1350
WTP - Primate Pro Euro BB 05 - $1375
Ok.
The Nova, Daredevil,Thrillseeker and Primate (Dave Osato's Signature Model) are mostly desgined for Park (Ramps)
The Addict and 4seasons are designed for Dirt and Street. (The Primate is also suitable for street though)
And the Div is a Flatland bike. (although I've got a shot of a pro doing street on it.)
Hope that helps!

Thanks for all the help guys but i got some more queries:
Were would I find a WTP dealer in sydney?
Does anyonelse no of a good bmx for dirt/street with good quality parts? around $700-$1300 but will look out of that rangege if i find the right bike.
Would the WTP street/park bikes still be good for djing?

I have ridden a LOT of different BMX's over the years. Just about one of every major company. I've owned 4 WTP's, am currently riding one, and am about to purchase another.
Answer the question?

What was wrong with the other 4? :p
I can't claim anywhere near the amount of experience with BMX's as sxereturn but I've tried to ride as many different ones as possible since I started riding and have yet to try another bike I'd swap my WTP 4 seasons for. Coming from an exclusively MTB background the geometry feels so perfect it's ridiculous.

That depends, was the question "Is Jonno a brandwhore?"

4Seasons is made for Dirt! If you've got the cash get the Pro!
As for shops in Sydney, I can't help you out there :(

I want to have a front brake on my bike so those 2 bikes arent right for me i dont think. I want to do like stopies but also djing.
All BMX's (all bikes for that matter) sold in Australia must have front and rear brakes by law, so no matter what the website says, you will be getting a set of front brakes if you buy new.
