Aw yeah, sub'd

Are you gonna fit a brake?

Awesome choices so far!

Good question, no brake = better flow and fluidity, no backing out, fear
Brake = ability to stop, less fear, habit , safety net. Legal to ride wherever i want

Wheels that I already have:
Front = chrome g sport birdcage and black profile hub
Rear= chrome envy rim with red profile mini
Cranks: profile chrome 175mm

What forks? Will it all be S&M?

Maybe s and m widemouth when i can afford them
In the meantime: black destickered supercross integrated

assume you've seen this https://custombmx.co.uk/products/s-m-btm-21-bmx-frame-metallic-purple-rrp-560

Yep - second hand/scraped up and have gone for an xl with the longer HT
Got a good deal on this frame

Following this one - constantly having to stop myself attempting to re-live my youth. Looks like a great build so far, and Hoder is a beast.

Am I having to come and break your finger though?
Sub’ed. For the Radness

Legal to ride wherever i want

You'll need 2 brakes if you want to follow the law...

"my bike's illegal, so they send for the law"

F*** the law😬 I’ll need to put reflectors on my wheels too if that’s the case

Don’t stop yourself reliving anything - we’re a long time dead and it’s much more fun than getting pissed (in my opinion)
Now if I can get this properly flat / do a x up or barspin I’ll be v happy)

Apologies if I'm aging you unnecessarily, but a brake also means you can do fufanus and pretend to be in an iconic mid-school (I hate that my era of BMX is now called that) video.

Although, brakeless means you can pretend to be in Can I Eat or Voices so there's that.

I still associate Hoder with this: https://vimeo.com/211187263
.

Still one of the best threes I've ever seen.

Nah I had a bmx in 84(old school) 94-2005 , 2008-2010 (mid) and in recent years (new) . 54 1/2 years old
Always had a back brake and probably always will😀
Jeez that was amazing!!
Back in around 1985

I can't remember what video it was in, maybe Lotek. But I remember seeing that as a teen and having my mind blown.
