Today I found this bike at a Play It Again Sports for $279. I didn’t know anything about Sunday Bikes, so I didn’t get it. I’m wondering if I passed up a good deal?? Anyone have any insight?

Depending on it’s condition that’s a fair price. A 29er isn’t a “tricks” bike, more of a wheelie and old man cruiser. Source: I’m an old man.
I wouldn’t get it as a wheelie bike just because it doesn’t have disc brakes, but for the price it’s pretty good and you can still put hydraulic rim beakes on
A cruiser type bike like this can come in a few different wheel sizes which is really nice depending on needs and the rider. 29ers are known for having a really good roling resistance, and because of the larger wheels you get a bit more forgiveness with rough terrain/bumps compared to smaller wheels (hence a 29/27.5 mullet dh bike, best of both worlds). 29ers tend to keep a slightly better momentum than smaller wheels too, ideal for a cruiser bike like this. As i got into bmx i really started to appreciate the simplicity of things. No brakes, no gears, no dropper post. Just sit down and ride!
This would be a reallllly sweet bike to sit down and hit the beach or do some quick lil errands, no gears and just a simple rim brake. For sub 300$ and depending on the actual MSRP id look into picking it up if i was in the market for one!
This is a really nice cruiser that still manages to feel like a BMX. Super solid, but loooooong.
