Eastern Battery (2011)
$440.00
Released September, 2010
The Pros:Classic and stylish BMX design, looks good. Can take some heavy abuse without warping. Maneuverable enough for freestyling.
The Cons:Grips feel cheap and can't take much abuse. Frame and bars are heavier than average.
The Eastern Battery (2011) is a BMX bike sized for younger riders. This is similar to the Eastern Piston (2011), but uses a 3 piece forged chromoly system for the cranks with an 8-spline spindle. Otherwise they are the same, with updates from the 2010 model including Eastern Crown pedals, and a Nitrous Logo one-piece seat and post combo.

The frame and fork are made with 1020 steel for durability, and Eastern Coral grips are used on the handlebars to prevent slips. 20 inch Kendra tires are used, and the rear brake is a forged alloy U-Brake that uses a straight cable system.
