Personally if I’m starting out, I’d go for two brakes and a group, just to get used to it all first. But that’s a preference thing.
Apart from that, yes it’s a great first bike. Never spend too much in the beginning (that counts for any hobby), it’s going to get very beat up from hitting the ground a lot while you attempt tricks. You will learn, you’ll make mistakes, hell you might not even enjoy it that much. Start with something reasonable and you can upgrade once you know this is what you want to do for the next however many years.

for learning and seeing if its something you want to stay with, yeah for sure. it is hi-ten steel though, if youre heavy or crazy abusive it could damage easy.

The GT’s are a pretty good value. Its a whole lot better than any walmart bike.
