Bought a BMX

[Ruben_Williams]

LOL that's 3 now, lol but I lost the other 2 somehow, anyway gonna remove the rest of stickers tomorrow, and get new pedals and grips, next week new break leaver and eventually a new saddle & rims (black) (bit of a boring pick really but thought i'd share



btw it's a Fit Inman 1, I got it for a pretty good price £100

[andreas]

lawd that's pretty cheap. rims as in wheels or just the rims?

[Ruben_Williams]

I dunno, the spokes are black, already so possibly just the rims, or whatever works out easier to fit / price ratio . . . As you can see the rear wheel has worn so will need to get clear break pads once I do that.

[agusbmxarg]

Nice bike bro, that's cheap to you, but down here ,is like, the best deal you could ever do.
What part of the UK are you from? got any park o a legit set of trails near your place?

[Ruben_Williams]

South Wales, There used to be a park in an enterprise estate that my mates ol' man ran, boarder n inline only though, probably a few trails about, I havent had a bike for ages, but wanted one for summer for exercise, plus it will fit in my car lol .

[OGBMX420]

defiantly a good bike to start out with and a chance to post my bike.... a custom subrosa villicus with mostly ecla't parts

[Ruben_Williams]

Thanks dude, you're bike looks cool, I def need a saddle like that, the one on mine is like sittin on a concrete wall (worse) not that I usually on it but still.
I#ve never bought any BMX from new, I do prefer the good ol worn in look when I get it.

[agusbmxarg]

Nice bike OG, I like the old school look it has with that classy blue and chrome forks.

I took these yesterday with the new tranny (bought a procket and a chain).







I like my bike alot hehe.

[Demzilla]

i want a bmx bike real bad...

these shits look so fun...

[Ruben_Williams]

Agus that bike looks hella sweet, love the stem

Ok here's a quick update on mine, lol, not done much, infact very counter productive as I can't even ride it now. salt pivotal seat and stem, some sort of alloy pedals got new grips and new break leaver but snapped the cable getting it out the old one n now have a punture on front wheel.
all thats left then is possibly new handle bars and wheels and tires n I'm gonna leave it at that for abit then. . . (Yess I want everything black)

[skHate88]

i've been looking around for cheap bikes for a while and found nothing half as good as that for the same price, what a fucking steal. jealous

[XILENTZ]

Really would like to get into riding BMX and whatnot but the price just seems steep as fuck for them.

Plus, the last time I was on one (iirc it was a kink curb 2011) I went for the largest quarter at our park and just didn't level the bike out because im an idiot and ended up clipping the qp and falling back in.

[agusbmxarg]

Remember my ol' classy black bike?




Look what I did today....



At first I was like 'oh it's so gross, my friends are gonna puke just by seeing it, awesome'. Now I'm like gawd please let it be a dream.

[andreas]

so... you do like it? and fuggit, here's my bike atm.

[agusbmxarg]

Am I spotting a female axle'd freecoaster? Are you painting it or preparing for a road trip?

[andreas]

naaaah finally got rid of my fc's. picked up a ratchet 10t at a hella low price. Doing a full rebuild and getting my brakes and stem refinished. Got a new gyro setup too so I'll be a four pegged park rat.

[agusbmxarg]

Top of a mountain? fuck I had always dreamed of bombing down some hill with my bike. How are the roads there? Have you spotted a non car transited straight downhill path already?

I live in a town of 800. I do 35-45mph hill bombs daily. Gotta get my front wheel trued though because it's creaky as a mofo.
