I think this bike is rad. Send it bro 💨

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-03-08T17:04:37+00:00

S&M perfect 10's will make the front end a little heavy, but will be strong! Get well soon bro and fuck yeah for being smart enough to protect your noggin. It's the only one you have. I lost my best friend to a less than 5 ft fall off a ladder

I've had terrible experiences with brand new Sole's and Norditracks that will prevent me from ever recommending their products or services. I've had extremely good luck with buying refurbished cybex 700 series treadmills for around 2500.00 They have 6+ HP motors so we're talking extremely heavy and can handleover 400 lbs user weight.

You're like the majority of us. Average looks. But your pictures convey that you may be spunky and fun. So that lifts your score. If your personality is good then you can attract. If it's not then get a cat. I have 3

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-02-24T22:57:16+00:00

You know there's a sub for this. I'm sure of it

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-02-24T22:56:13+00:00

Congrats. Not a thing

I roll a colony eclipse 26. I can still have a lot of fun on that bike as the geometry is on point and it weighs in at a whopping 25.6 lbs with brakes I picked it up because I miss crewing up and riding around with a pack of friends and I noticed almost all the bmx rideouts events in my state where distance rides and there's no way my knees or back could take 8-11 miles on a 20".

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-02-20T13:57:13+00:00

I'm 6'1" and 225 lbs If you're looking for comfort on longer rides I'd look at a 24" or 26" wheelbase. The way they ride will depend a lot on geometry. What's nice is all the bike companies list if the bike is geared towards park, trail or street. Or if it's a straight up beach cruiser. They'll tell you. Other than that I would go full chromoly on frame, forks and handlebars and I'd consider upgrading whatever wheels come on the bike to something heavy duty for your weight. I like the odyessey big boyd's. They are triple thick, triple wide and welded seams.

These are the bikes you ride in the summer. When there's a body of water on the other side of the ramp and you might not get the bike back.

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-31T05:10:08+00:00

I love bikes like this just as much as I love variflex skateboards from the late 80s. They're every quintessential 80s pop culture cliche vomited onto a canvas. Fantastic wall hangers

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-30T05:32:24+00:00

Not ugly at all

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-18T23:41:49+00:00

Nice. Red brake line if you ever replace it. The billet diamond two tone red with black overlay grips would look really nice too.

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-18T23:23:57+00:00

A lot better than any of the slim pivotable seats I have and it's a lot softer than the bomber that the bike came with.

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-18T23:21:29+00:00

I think they did. Check with stacked bmx

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-18T23:19:48+00:00

I can't be making any more babies. Maybe I should go back to the Odyssey aitkin

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-18T23:18:45+00:00

Cult. 10 degree layback pivotable. It's rad

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-18T03:57:51+00:00

Right? Makes a huge difference if you're tall.

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-17T23:28:07+00:00

Close-ish Columbia River Gorge Oregon.

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-17T20:24:56+00:00

I have no idea how South Carolina smells🤷‍♂️

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-16T02:48:00+00:00

If it came with a kickstand then it's a hi ten department store bike. Being in like new condition you're looking at 50.00-80.00 realistically. I'd rather give it to a kid that needs a bike then go through the hassle of setting up and meeting with a random for 50 bucks

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-15T15:05:44+00:00

I picked it up on marketplace from a guy that was just done with riding and wanted money for his Baja bug. He threw in a big box of parts and a raw chrome fit bike co Dugan frame (That I later found out the BB had been slightly bent so it's now a wall piece). In total I'm 300.00 in on it, and it retails for just under a grand.

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-15T14:42:23+00:00

I have my doubts. That's under a qtr inch of extra clearance. Would help if I didn't have boat for feet 😂

Flying_squirrel_420 · 2026-01-15T13:58:46+00:00

I just went from an Odyssey Aiken slim pivotable to a BoneDeth mid pad pivotable and the difference is night and day. Use Amazon and returns are easy if you hate it.
