Get your child into Racing BMX on a new 2012 Felt Sector Mini race bike. Supplied with a set of protective pads and plastic race number plate, the Sector Mini is ready to hit the track and score some podiums!
The lightweight 7000 series aluminium frame is custom formed to create a lightweight and stiff chassis to connect an aluminium 3 piece crank, Cromoly fork and 20” race wheels with 1-1/8” micro nobbly tyres.

Sprung.
I've had enough of buying good bikes in Australia.
I get them from the UK instead. This same bike, but the 2013 model can be delivered from the UK for around $400.
Ironically Torpedo 7 is actually located in NZ!
hahahha nice find
It depends if it was $30 increase, or just not as much of a bargain. Discounted prices from suppliers might not have been as good last month.
Though, because the rep hasn't been back for over 7 hrs, I'm thinking it's more of an advertisement than a bargain.
aldi has some bikes on sale next week (sat 16), disc brakes and springy things in the middle for $179
fail to see the relevance? unless its at least a similar bike, there is no point in providing it as a better bargain.
Who cares - at least the Aldi one has a springy thing in the middle.
people that refer to "springy thing" should refrain from commenting on deals on BMX bikes unless they understand what those components are … "springy things" fyi are not good on a BMX :)
Torpedo7 has a sale on its bikes fairly regularly and this is a good price when it is on sale. Take a look at http://bikeexchange.com.au/ and try and find a BMX that will fit a kid under 12, as light as this for under $600. Most BMX bikes these days have 170-175 mm cranks (same as my MTB) so they are no good for smaller kids (under 14) - this bike has 145mm cranks.
I bought a very similar BMX from T7 for my 9 year old son about a year ago and he loves it. IMHO it makes a perfect kids bike as it is really light and very well made (good quality components). He rides it everywhere but loves taking it to the local dirt jumps/pump track.
Just note that although this bike has 20" wheels, they are not the standard BMX 20" (406 mm) but the larger/skinnier 451 mm size. This means you need to get different tyres and tubes than the standard 20" ones.
Your price for this bike last month was $349.99
