Sunday Cyclone freecoaster

<< < (2/2)

dude...:
good to have options for people who do want to run coasters, though it is super annoying how all the kids are running them, but thats just trends in bmx. whats cool may change, but bmxers are consistent in being sheep.
also coasters are great forreally slow manuals cos theres no drag, i only realised this recently

montymitch:
Nah, trends are good for BMX. The annoyance is a small price to pay for the product development that the trends drive.

Bunky:
^^^ This is very true.

It used to be that if you wanted to ride a freecoaster, you had to be pretty good at bicycle maintenance and just kind of accept the fact that you were going to have to work on your rear hub a lot. 

I'm glad that freecoasters became a trend, because it spawned a lot more reliable options.

My purchased in 08 WTP Q-Lite that has never been disassembled or greased is the loudest fucking thing in the world, like a swarm of bees on steroids. No stealth missions with that, haha.

Still want to try a freecoaster for a bit though...
