Jesus god dude!
I remember when Lotek just started sellin shoes in NY and were nobodies.
Man, im still running a big *** 44 tooth sprocket, 16 tooth driver and a fatboy chain. what do they have now like a 20 tooth sprocket and 6 tooth driver???

U shouold get rid of ur barcode!, and trade it for a compton

O and danscomp kind of laughed on the phone but i expected that hahaha

 

Well that hasn't changed. Danscomp is still teh ghey.

Call empire up tomorrow. Tom and tina are nice as ****. They make such a cute couple. They'll hook you up right. You can see what they have in scratch n dent/used as well. Again, it's best to call if you're looking for a frame. If you can't find a series one, ask for something that has similar geometry.

I JUST got my barcode perfect. I spent probably an hour or so filling the dropout slots. With a 1.85 tire, i have roughly .5mm clearance between my pegs and the chainstay/seatstay welds, 2mm of side to side tire clearance. Bike is a ******* manual machine and my 360 hops are super snappy now! I've had it for four years and it's pretty dented and rusting under my clear coat (i rawed it and sprayed green clear coat on it). I also shaved my cable guides and brake mounts.

I believe 22-8 is the smallest gearing out. Thank primo for that. 8t driver. Gsport finally came out with a cassette hub and it is ****. Freecoasters made a comeback. People hang 5 everything. People are doing RAIL RIDES UP RAILS TO TAILWHIP OUT. Also doing grind variations to tailwhip out..... It's a ******* circus.....

The standard bb is a thing of the past. It's all mid/spanish. Euro is officially trash. regular headsets that press into the frame are also a thing of the past. They no longer make frames that accept either of those things.

I'd trade my barcode for a 20.5" black eye pistola frame. That's about it. It's super low slung and tailwhips are my unicorn. I get close. but i think my arms aren't big enough for a 6.5lb 21" frame. I bought it originally to ride trails AND street on but i ride more street than anything these days.

 

I don't drift but I have been riding bmx since '96. I actually just came back from woodward a little bit ago. broke my crank arm off the second day.

Other then woodward and some local skateparks all I ever ride or ever want to ride is trails. trails are the ****.

 

Watttt, since when is a euro BB trash? im a fan of the spanish myself but dam.
as for the upward on rails to tailwhip out, i dont even wanna talk about that hahaha.

i think im gonna throw some small gearing on and learn again cause of this thread

 

Word to that. Euro is trash b/c of those stupid *** threads. No frames use them anymore....maybe the race frames do but for freestyle it's all press fit w/o cups. You just press the bearing itself directly into the bb.

Comptons have seatstay brakes right? You should be able to run micro. 25-9 is normal. I plan on upgrading to that b/c i'm sick of bending sprockets. I have a tree 7075 33t and it's got a good bit of wobble to it. Sprocket to feeble and sprocket to icepick stalls are one of my favs. When i go pegless on my left side, i tend to grind on my sprocket and chain alot when i do pedal grinds.

I love bmx. I hope i get to ride this week. I'm getting alot better learning new tricks and getting old tricks back. I fucked my ribs up last month trying to fastplant tailwhip a bank but i should be 100 percent now. Me and the boys building TRAILZ this spring/summer!!!!

 

no brake brackets on the bike, i rides brakeless son ive been brakeless for a while, just kinda got used to it wen i couldnt afford brakes in the past.

 

Word.

I shaved my mounts off my frame years ago. Plus, i got tired of busting out the spoke wrench or when my wheel shifted. I used to have odyssey evo brakes with kool stop salmon pads. That+chrome rim+linear cable=one finger fufanus all day long. I miss it but i hate spending more time working on my bike then riding it. We're working on a video soon. Cars, bikes, skateboards, antics. Should be good times.



Here's something i'd like to try.

Looks like a BLAST!

I said i'd never ride a huffy but i'm willing to make the trip to kmart for one of these. I hope they still sell em, if not i'll make my own. I can weld and we have a shitload of bike parts just laying around. Lulz!

 

bikers suckkkk they take up the whole ****** park!






april fools. honestly though leave some room for the wood pushers

 

Skaters get in the way and stay in the way at street spots, the park. Doesn't matter. They learn after i run into them a couple of times at full speed after they cut me off mid-run.

Sitting on top of ramps and the sub boxes.... Oh that **** pisses me off. Makes me want to peg stall some kneecaps.

 

its only cause theyre all posers real skaters never get off their board unless its to run from the cops

 

be a man and dirt jump.

 

Used to. Back when i first started i was all about trails. Then my crew and I got lazy and started riding street and backyard ramps that ppl we met had.

My ***** shrank. I'm afraid to do big gaps even on street. I got out of riding for well over a year but i'm comming back. My 2 riding buddies were supposed to make trails and **** but he's moving out of his parents house and what we started on we can't finish so we have to find a new spot.
