Re: New Bike

I like the look a lot better. Also, I got so sick of having to stop literally every two or three wheelies to adjust the shock I just wanted something that wouldnt break everytime I dropped it, and I wanted pegs. I like it a lot better so far. Is everyone else against BMX bikes?

Re: New Bike

i heart bmx.

i do not, however, heart haro. i think they are too poseresque. i see too many litle 12 year olds wearing the whole bmx/skater look, and i watch them, and they do nothing on their bikes. half of the haros i see still have the reflectors on them.

hopefully you will not be like them.

Thanks bro, I'll give you a call. 78 king cobra, I know what flatland is. The reason the chaingaurd and reflectors are still on is because I've been working on basic stunts instead od adjusting things. I have only adjusted the front brake to work on endos. I am NOT a 12 year old kid who wears the whole "bmx" look and doesnt do anything. I've had my bike two days and do more than those kids. Pete, all respect to you because you are a better rider and I respect that I just dont want you to misunderstand this and take it offensively, I didnt misjudge mountain bikes and I know that the reason my broke so often was because it was cheap. I went to the store to look at bike and found one I really liked the look of, they happen to let me try a few wheelies outside the store and I liked it. Im happy with my decision but I appriciate your input from before.

Re: New Bike

Pete, I started working on coasters and turning the bike wile on the back wheel today so I'll let you know what I get circles but it will be a little wile before I have that kind of control on this bike. I'll get it though.

just remember, faster=wants to turn out, slower=wants to fall in.

if the bike keeps falling in, your slowing down to much, if it wants to change direct, your going to fast or speeding up to quickly.
