Trick Bike Porn

Fun fact: My LBS had the T1 Garrett Byrnes Barcode that was used in the new products bit of Ride. I think the frame number was 0004.

That's pretty cool

MKE Bruiser.

Can't stand fgfs bikes with the saddles to low to comfortably pedal on...

Why? That seat is too high to comfortably do tricks on

Plus thats not really a FGFS bike, mavic open pros? Come on, they'd bend on the first stairset.

yeah thats not a trick bike.
huge chainring, really high seat and skinny ass wheels

Judging from his other bike the guy is pretty tall, but yeah i see what you saying.

I mean when people pretty much slam there saddle and ride fixed, i think it just looks awkward, no style at all. nothing to do with the bike i posted, just saying.

but the whole point is that the bikes are smaller and more compact so you can throw them around a lot more

^^ watching someone trying to do tricks on a seat with full leg extension would be fuck load more awkward

^ Agreed!

Yeah i get that, but in my opinion, if you can't ride to the spot in reasonable comfort, i really don't see the point.

i'm sure the guy on the MKE don't take tricks to seriously.

You ever ridden a BMX?

Talking out my arse a bit here to be honest, just came to mind earlier today talking to a mate

yeah i rode bmx for a few years until about 2011 maybe, until my bmx got stolen and i never really got into it again.

Last bike I had was a KHE zenith ignore the fat retard in the backround.

MKE Bruiser.

Love this bike. Tis more of a City thrasher or a freestyle bike from the whole Bootleg Sessions era.

yeah i rode bmx for a few years until about 2011 maybe, until my bmx got stolen and i never really got into it again.

Then you should realise getting to a spot in comfort has fuck all to do with anything.

And what's the point in having the seat high and getting to a spot comfortably if once you get there it's way to hard to do any tricks and a horrible ride.

Might as well just have the saddle low because really it doesn't effect getting anywhere at all

Often had to ride like 5 miles to a decent spot, with a slammed saddle it just wasn't pleasant.

Just saying, when i see guys riding fixed on 26ers and they can't even sit down, they may be doing some impressive tricks, but i don't think it looks good, it looks awkward, no style to it, so then i don't think those bikes look good, when the saddle is up a bit i think it looks much better, my personal opinion from the few video's i have seen.

You don't need to give a shit about my opinion as many guys on here ride these bikes every day because they enjoy it

allen key?

I did use some stupidly long seat post at one point, for getting to the spots, was actually awesome, but i'm just not born to bmx, not gifted that way

I don't think you're getting it, they can sit down with slammed seats, but tricks are easier if they don't.

simple as that. Having a seat on a trick bike as high as you'd have it on a commuter is just stupid

Don't think i do really get it. just gets to a point when the saddle is so low they may as well put a cassette on it, but agree to disagree or what ever.

Epic conversation.

Oh and BMX wise, this frame was epically low (and shite):

And thats what low slung with large posts look like. blackeye killorado. Wtf

That's a flatland bike
