This. Personally if I bought a yellow frame I'd make everything else black, maybe with white walls since they go with anything haha

Dude, Nice! I wish I could buy alot of parts too.
Anyway there are black color hubs available as of today. I asked Armand about it, It just came today. But it's not a v4 but the unwarranty one which is a lot cheaper.
If you are planning on buying from him, I might help you out and get discounts from him.

As for the topic.
The yellow frame would look nice with black parts. or you could buy the chrome hubs then a tan wall tires.
a eastern purple pc pedals, eastern purple grips. Armand has a lot of eastern parts maybe if you buy from him he can give you discounts.

It looks fine with purple. Ride what you can man.

To all the guys saying "Ditch this color and get all black" or "get rid of the purple and get black and white walls" etc, if you ACTUALLY READ THE POST he is limited to what his local shop has in stock so that doesn't work.

Again OP, just ride what you can. If you are happy with the colors, ride it. To hell what all these kids who rock basically nothing but black bikes think.

Seriously, there is no diversity in BMX bike color schemes anymore.

Sometimes you gotta make do.

I had a fully built up custom setup, and needed wheels and a frame, couldn't afford a solid set of both, so I got myself a legit complete a few years ago, merged what I had to make a solid Eastern Boss. Then I bent/twisted that frame, got a Journey on an upgrade and then found some Profile wheels for a decent deal.

I know money is tight and parts are hard to come by for you, but i would NOT get the fork and sprocket. If at all possible try to find something better.

I think all the parts are good, he's not a heavy rider and i think he is new to bmx. I guess he would not break anything from that build. And Fondue is right, we don't have choices that you have there. Heck, even some of the local bikeshops here also sells fake bmx parts most of it are eastern fakes. The important part is that he can ride his bike and enjoy riding it.
