I know my bikes, but I honestly want to get this seeing as that my bike is shittier than what this bike can turn out to be
the bike i want to get: http://www.walmart.com/ip/20-DK-The-Machine-Unisex-BMX-Bike-Red/20658257
my bike:
what I can tell from what it has in the picture which make me interested
front end:
-decent grips (for replacements/spares)
-gyro/detangler brake setup
-decent looking stem, looks pretty compact
-decently designed forks
-super grippy front tire (hopefully a medium pressure... somewhere around 65psi)
middle portion of the bike:
-seat/seat post combo (padded with a little padding, but who knows how comfy it will be?)
-simple seat clamp, has a larger bolt from what it looks like which is good for not stripping
-mid bottom bracket, I honestly think it might just be, because the bottom bracket shell looks smaller
-solid looking cranks (made of chromoly)
-good pedals, honestly I like dk pedals
-the chain? eh who cares, it's just a plain ol' kmc chain
-25 tooth sprocket
rear end:
-clear brake pads and a u-brake... possibly tektro
-14mm rear axle, either a sealed or semi-sealed hub, but who honestly knows
I do not have much to say on the rear end
but here is what I AM going to change and what part it will be
-handlebars -change to- Fiction Troop Bars (8.65" rise -/- 27.5" wide **I cut them**)
-front tire -change to- 2.15 Colony Agenda Tire (110psi, I ride around 90-100 generally)
-brake lever -change to- Odyssey Monolever (with the "trigger" lever)
-front wheel -change to- Hoffman Generator Complete Wheel (sealed female axle, double walled rim)
-grips -change to- Colony Much Room Grips (flanges cut off)
overall It looks like a really upgrade friendly bike and I am looking for something like that
but what is the Vital Bmx Communities thoughts?
Welp, broke past 1000... yeeeee
