Those dimensions sound heavenly.
The Half cabs are more protective and have a beefier construction. However, the 112s are more stylish, low profile, and dont delaminate as easily

If all youre doing is cruising, I would go for a 22” bike. Still looks and feela like a bmx, but the slightly larger wheel size will make for more comfortable rides
Lol! ME when I first started ??? except the bar height part. More like TT height until I cleaned up my act
You should have just learned to do it yourself, and never need a shop again.

Nice tri-blend. The Nike basketball tshirts are like the best material ever. Favourite cut is the early 2010s Volcom shirts (slimmish fit, but long)

For dirt/street. Like dirt jumps? Sounds like an allrounder bike which is imho the best kind to start on anyway. But yeah we need your height and budget
@falloftroy20 lol yeah when I just started there was this older kid that did that. Always whined n messed up all the dirt jumps. Idk why they hung out with him. I was jealous of his yellow Haro tho ? @Krooked oh word dude, tell em to get on Vital and ... more »

Out of these two, the Framed. Its 100% chromoly and sealed. As for upgrades, replace what breaks
You might get some answers here, but this is more of a freestyle forum. You are better off asking this on a racing forum. Good luck! ?
Nice article. How did they not smash their knees tho?

Go for the 145s and slap on a 25t sprocket

Weighed my bike at the supermarket. 27.6lbs with two steel pegs. I’m doing fine, and not exactly what you would call “ripped” by any means ?
Yeah. My bike is a 2015 complete. Subrosa frame and all Shadow parts. Was supposed to just be a temporary bandaid from when my bike got stolen, and been waiting for an excuse to upgrade but the thing just wont die ?

TDE laid it all out. I ride brakless, but Miami is extremely flat (no hills at all). My reason for it is simplicity, and an irrational fear of hurting my hand on the lever. Ive also been riding for years. I would recommend any beginner to ride with brakes ... more »

When going for these 3 things at the same time, best way to go about is hunting sales and discounts over the course of a couple months and probably end up with some funky colours. Wish I was patient enough for that
