bmx

This is mine. Frame, forks and bars will be up on ebay next week if anyone is interested.

how much are you looking for

Are you George French?
Bet you run your homer on an alex supra as well?

The Alone Scots Guard is actually better and retrofits directly onto a marmoset hub http://www.customriders.com/prodshow.asp?prodid=9456&cat=24&parent=1001
The bsd Jersey Barrier is great for Odyssey cassette hubs too.

G's products always take years to come out: wombolts, ratchet hub (where's this freecoaster?), and are expensive compared to odyssey stuff and even american made stuff now. I saw 3 sets of wombolts fail at a jam I rode at 2 years ago, while I still see people riding the old odyssey ones now.

As for little 15 year old kids who don't know how to put their bikes together. They are BMX, they've got the enthusiasm that is begining to wain in me. Parts should be as universal as poss and bikes shouldn't be hard to put together. Wtf do you think everyone rides brakeless today?

That FBM is nice

Haha, no I'm not George French, I just really like his stuff. I'll stop sucking his ass now and shut up. But I will say, the Alone hub guard looks good, but I will probably never have to buy one because I'll probably stop riding BMX before my GLAND2 breaks.

All the kids ride brakeless because they want to be cool. I see them all at Rom, shorter than me with bars as wide as a house, all colour coded, brakeless with no idea how the fuck to ride brakeless. I rip around full speed in London traffic and I've never had a crash. These cunts crash into each other just going down the roll in.

If anyone's at a loss as to what to do tomorrow/today (sat 20th!) there's a big street ride going on

p.s. sorry about short notice!

LFGSS bmx track day soon? please....anyone~?

Trying to get into BMX, but where to start?

Trying to get into BMX, but where to start?

Buy BMX, go to nearest track, ride around it, realise it hurts quite a bit falling off at speed, sell BMX for loss before you kill yourself.

(that may only apply if you are an old man like myself!)

Trying to get into BMX, but where to start?

Try buying a bike and riding it. That's usually the way most people start.

I don't understand the term 'trying to get into bmx'. Are you being forced or something?! You try something and if you like it you spend a shit load of money on it, spill plenty of blood, but enjoy yourself along the way.

I'm in, my Diamond Back Cruiser is just waiting for it.

Not a video so I'm posting it in this thread.

This made me smile:

^awesome

^^ ditto

not awesome at all. just a standard, if slightly self-righteous, loss and find. and badly written too.

Do you ever post anything that isn't negative and bitchy?

Fuck off back to bike porn where you can complain about everything that isn't a tedious vintage track bike.

Dick.

I finally got sick of riding past all the ramps and bowls round my way, and dumped a load on BMX when i got paid this afternoon.

Cant wait to have a play (having never ridden a BMX in my life)....providing it doesnt decide to piss with rain for the next 3 months...

Sick. One more polo player on the ramps.

What did you go for?

I found a NOS '09 Mirraco Blackpearl1, and bought it kinda on the spur of the moment, after a hella load of indecision and reading over the past few weeks.

I reckon it was a pretty good deal considering my budget.

Nicely done. Enjoy.

If you've never bmxed / dirt jumped before your 22 it's probs not worth starting - haha!

Nah, good luck and say goodbye to your shins!

What a load of bollox, the best thing about being an adult is not acting like one.

I grew up riding mountain bikes , I play polo, i dont want to compete, I couldn't care less what people think of my ability, you're never to old to play :)

if anybody else wants to follow MrLemon's example I've got a basically new BMX going : http://www.lfgss.com/thread45858.html

Thats a nice price but that bike is fa$hion as fuck.

I used to ride wombolts, they were stiff but the cluster design was flawed as fuck, as was the cracking on the left arm.

Mile End park is amazing if you run pegs, loads of inventive obstacles! Definatly worth a trip.

How often do you ride there, I've been doing early weekend sessions for a while.
