Eastern Bikes are good but not their low end models unless u upgrade them.
U should buy the cheaper stuff first like bars, grips, pedals, brakes and levers, seats and seat posts, tires, even forks and cranks.
I have a fully custom Eastern Element '07 and the only stock thing on it is, the frame and the forks. Don't waste the money u have on a new bike, invest it on the bike u just got. Hope this helps ya man.

GO OUT AND RIDE RIGHT NOW.

upgrading a bike is so much more worth it than buying a complete bike. it might be more money to do but once its mostly all upgraded it feels like no complete bike can.

Get like a Demolition Front Wheel and then get a Custom back wheel. It should be able to make your bike a little lighter but idk if it will be under $300 depending on what rim or hub you get.

Yeah, I say spend time upgrading, like every decent bike is around 400, bikes under 300 usally arent the greatest

stolens are fine, but i wouldn't get something under 300 your better off just dealing with your bike until for a month or so so you have 400 or so to get something nicer than those it would be worth it in the long run
