I looked at a 20" SE for my kid's first BMX bike. The guy working at my LBS actually talked me out of it. He said they're great if pulling wheelies is all you want to do. Not great handlers for BMX style riding. I wanted something a little more versatile for my kids first bike, so I waited for the Kinks to come back in to stock and paid an extra $100 for it. SE's are colorful though...
