First Racing Bike For My Son
We're looking to try out BMX racing. My son is turning 14 this month and has shown interest so I'm looking at bike options. I raced when I was his age, but the landscape has changed a lot. I'm trying to get the best bang for my buck and don't want to go to crazy because I have no idea if he'll want to stick with it after a season.
Right now I'm looking at two different bike options and the price difference is pretty drastic, so I'm looking for help from the community to decide.

I can get the DK local and I like the idea of supporting a local shop, but it's a lot more expensive. The Huffy is a lot cheaper, but maybe there are reasons to avoid it.
