The Lounge / Re: "NIGEL SYLVESTER ON ADVANCING BMX WITHOUT FITTING IN"
« on: January 04, 2015, 02:06:26 PM »The thing I don't get is that he is saying that he isn't a typical BMXer? I don't quite get that. Does he mean he doesn't look like the vert riders that pushed the sport into the main stream (Hoffman and Mirra) or that he doesn't look like a typical street rider? I get it if he is going for the latter but I'm pretty sure 'dude from the East Coast with pegs and no brakes' is the image of a street rider and has been for years.
I think what he means by that is that he doesn't fit the typical career path of a BMX biker. He's not putting out web edits quad-annually for his sponsors, he's not doing trip videos outside of Nike, but that's Nike..., he's not climbing up the standard BMX industry ladder and more power to him.
If he wants to market what he's good at to get something out of it other than bumming on people's couches and inevitably needing to find a different career path at the age of 30, is that really not understandable? The standard BMX lifestyle is great but it's not for everyone and that doesn't make him less of rider because of so.

Zane?
So stoked on the vhs skateboarding video! The Inman bars, Hazard Lite, Primo Comet seem pretty much brand new too!
PS I should be posting my package tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Car broke down earlier last week.

Are these comfortable enough to use as a easy commuter bike for a few miles?

« on: December 09, 2014, 11:24:52 PM »Cant go wrong with some Animal GLHs. Pretty sure they still come in smaller sizes.
Seriously. If you ride a lot of street or do a lot of grinds, they're perfect but if your neither of those you could probably get away with something lighter.

There are a lot of cool new things out there, it's just harder to find with all these shitty ones.
