herbsyntec Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 http://www.vintagebmx.com is better than museum....jk They are both great sites. Lots of tech info and old school flapping of the jaws. Tree ride on Marshall in Winston? NC State Tucker Beach. We used to have that spot clayed out, but time and school maintenance have not been good to her since I stopped going to school there. That's Capitol City during the track rebuild looking at what is now the fourth straight. We just rebuilt the track again. I'll get flicks eventually and send them to you.

The tree ride here is still golden. And that track looks like the last time I raced Woodbridge. Never been to cap city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

and... Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 http://www.harobikes.com/mtb/gallery/albums/album-30/lg/08F_SRESRV1_WHT.jpg i have a similar set up. 24" wheels, susp fork. but i want to get rid of it and get a real bmx setup. not sure if i wanna go 24" cruiser(new dk cruiser or subrosa cruiser) or just get a straight up 20" never rode a little bike before. bmx heads, are 24" cruisers even worth it? ive heard the old dk general sherman had problems with barspins b/c the wheel would hit feet on pedals. im not super tall, but i just think the cruiser would be more comfortable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R@ndomH3ro Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 Cruisers are comfortable to ride but for tricks, I think a 20" would be better The geometry on cruisers are all weird, plus a lot of places dont make good parts for cruisers since they are going out of style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shai Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 The problem for me is that I'm a pretty big guy and 20" bikes ride/feel/look ridiculous when I'm riding them. 24" bikes don't seem to work well, either...if you can do it when you're my size (6' 225 lb) then great, but I need a 26" to feel comfortable doing jumps, street tricks and whatnot. The Haro is a nice out the door package for the money. I could definitely build a nicer bike but it would cost at least $500 more than what the Haro goes for.

IRON CHEF Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 HELL YA, BUT THE BARS ACTUALLY GOT SMALLER SO THE NEW GENERATION COULD PULL THESE NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TRICKS THEY DO NOWADAYS. IN 1984 I REMEMBER A BRAND CALLED VECTOR RESEARCH THAT HAD THE IDEA TO WELD THE BARS TO A STEM. PEACE- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

herbsyntec Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 THE HUTCH TRICKSTAR WILL SILENCE YOU REAL QUICK. I would be impressed if you still had the skyway, or the trickstar. If you could bust out an old Kuwahara or something of the like, I would be even more impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IRON CHEF Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 i "had" a chrome Kuwahara, but in those days the E.T. movie "cheesed" it up a little having one, for me anyway so i traded it for a schwinn predator. good frame swap actually. got rid of the skyway cause i didn't like how thin some of the tubes were. several diamond backs later- chrome trickstar restoration is in my near future. yes i still have it. all geared up too. REDLINE FLIGHT CRANKS SKYWAY TUFF 2's HUTCH STEM HUTCH SEATPOST CLAMP HUTCH "MIKE DOMINGUEZ BARS ACS ROTOR that's the bike all my "trading" of random parts lead up to. never got my other dream-bike, pk ripper loop-tail, oh well , got 1 from my dream list. ***extra credit: I REMEMBER WHEN THE FIRST FRONT BRAKE MOD THROUGH THE STEM CAME ABOUT. THE ORIGINAL NAME FOR THAT IS THE - "POTTS-MODIFICATION" THEN THE REAR BRAKE WITH THE ACS "ROTOR" THEN THE ODDESSEY VERSION. HELL I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT BRANDS YOU GUYS HAVE AVAILIBLE TO YOU NOWADAYS? (or maybe i'll get clowned for saying the word "brake" ?!?!) LOL PEACE- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
