I tried doing the tires on the nest one up but pedals and pegs are in the way. Getting to the one I think you're talking about it not for the fattened weekend warrior.

The guy is a goon, but look at some of the videos in this thread. He still rides pretty well.

You're making a way bigger deal out of something way smaller. If you asked 90% of kids 19 and younger what Brooklyn machine works is, I suspect you would find a very small value. This dude can hardly be held responsible for kids being dumbfucks on BMX bikes. That is the point of it. To get into trouble, do stupid shit, do wallrides on the office supply store down the street. You can be embarrassed, ashamed, and worried all you like but this isn't an upscale discipline anyone outside of BMX will look at and think of it assuming a televised contest rider could just drop out next year and not be any worse off.

Maybe if he put out videos like that regularly he could get a better response from BMX. I suspect the core of BMX is not his demographic though.

My OG solid stem is really old, its been through several owners.

My frame, forks, wheels, sprocket and grips are almost 5 years? My grips are truly older than that, they were backups and I put them on when I put this bike together.


I hate riding it these days because it's past the prime of usage. I like to think about buying new shit when I'm riding it. When I get on the internet to look at shit to replace, I fucking hate it. I like buying orchids way more.

Damnit, last year I resolved to do a legit handrail backwards. I did not. I'll make excuse I didn't find the right one, I didn't go looking either though.

No, it's definitely worth it. I was riding kirkwood Sunday. Man I missed snowboarding! Dropped some cliffs and shredded through some chutes.

Nick, I feel for you and the Midwest hills. Hope you get out to the Tetons or Rockys!

Bunky sent me some cool shit. Thanks dude!
There's a couple cassettes, one looks unused. A front hub. Some Ruben pedals that are sweet. Cult forks. A rnc sprocket, an s&m one. A pivotal. Maybe it's an s&m stem? Shitluck and a coalition beverage coozies. A gsport gland.

I learned these hangover nose manual Wallrides. Barspinnies down a lil four stairs.
