A better buggy in similar price range is the Flexi. Flexi will support you whereas PL won't. Sand-Yeti Quote
daveswan Posted June 26, 2005 Report Posted June 26, 2005 my vote would be the flexy ! you can hear a Pl rattle for miles hey guys i want to get a buggy but don't know which one to get. i don't want to do jumps much on it but manly those two wheels thing i've seen people do and other tricks on the ground. i'm looking at a peterlynn comp st but if any one could give some advice on a cheap good alround buggy i would very mutch apreciate it Quote
rainady Posted June 26, 2005 Report Posted June 26, 2005 Flexi is probably best all round for the money. Parastorm good all round buggies but a little more expensive. Libra V Max, good buggy for speed and can do wheelies but possibly a little more difficult Quote
wembly6 Posted June 26, 2005 Report Posted June 26, 2005 I agree with everything that has been said above. The flexi is much better build quality than the peter lynn. Although, if you can afford it, the parastorm typhoon is a great buggy. Also have a look at the libre special, which is still possible to two-wheel, and still stable for some high speed runs. Try and find some local fliers and have a go in their buggies if possible. It still comes down a lot to personal preference. I know that flexi bugs are better built than peter lynns, but I prefer my peter lynn, even though I have had to get it welded again twice. Wembly6 Quote
jeffrington Posted June 26, 2005 Report Posted June 26, 2005 PL ST comp. i got mine second hand for £150 off e-bay, ive seen them go for cheaper than that. Ive had a brief go on a flexi and it felt a lot more rigid but i couldnt help feeling that i was on it rather than in it like i do with my pl, i managed to rip the seat on mine so i fitted a XR seat and it made it a lot more comfortable. I love mine to bits cheap and cheerfull, £150 well spent for me. Quote

Has to be the parastorm typhoon, with the Mk 2 coming out there are some real good deals to be had on the Mk1... so good even the mrs rides one!! http://redcar.powerkiters.co.uk/albums/Appos-things/IMAG0048.jpg Quote
tractorman Posted June 26, 2005 Report Posted June 26, 2005 get the flexi off ebay, p.l pants dude. Quote
carl999 Posted June 26, 2005 Report Posted June 26, 2005 Go to Brancaster beach dude, you will find the guys there using both the flexi & the parastorm, for ground based freestyle is has to be one of these two, I aint saying you cant freestyle other buggy's but both the flexi & parastorm are freestyle specific;) Carl.

pyromunky Posted June 26, 2005 Report Posted June 26, 2005 Flexi is ace you can use it for freestlye on the ground and if you want to progress to jumps in future it can handle that too although a few modifcations are neccesary, also it comes apart and will easily fit in a car boot so its good all round Quote
