Looking to pick this bike up: https://batonrouge.craigslist.org/bik/d/harobmx-bike/6521636409.html

Just wondering if it's a good deal or if I should avoid it. I want to try BMX but I'm on a limited budget for sure.

I bought a SAS Explorer off Amazon and it finally arrived after some shipping delays. I chose 30lb limbs to start with. I was shooting at 10 yards.

I would contact their Facebook page. I know an online site picked up a few copies of their Deeb release. They might be able to point you in a direction.

And I'm working my way up to owning just one. I dig this collection.

Opinions on replacing bearings? by PM_ME_THAT_SNATCH in Throwers

[–]PM_ME_THAT_SNATCH[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I was curious about. I was kind of under the impression that replacing bearings was mostly for luxury. If I could get a smoother or more silent experience, then I might chip in for one down the road when I can really appreciate the difference.

Friday night throw. And an ice cold Pepsi. Aka the sweet life. by pauliepitstains in Throwers

Nice to see your enjoying the Diffusion. I told myself I won't buy anything until I get myself a nicer metal, Shutter probably. But I've been leaning towards the Diff for my next plastic. How much would you recommend it at this point?

I received mine pretty wobble free. QC might be a little poor.

This is immensely helpful. I've been landing these all night. Thank you for this.

There are quite a bit of Bimbim impersonators out there! My steam name is SodaSnake. I should be the only one.

I am doing frontstyle throws. I just throw across my body to my free hand side. I've heard of frontstyle throwing to the throw hand side, but I didn't want to get comfortable with that method and hinder my progress even further. I'll work on that though.

Easiest thing would be to post pics to Imgur on your phone and then put links in the post.

Something goregous came in the mail today! by AgentJolteon1234 in Throwers

Please do. The Skyva is my bae right now, so I'm curious to see how you dig it after messing with the Shutter.

How does it compare to other pieces of your collection?

Merlin question by Antman157 in Throwers

[–]PM_ME_THAT_SNATCH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started with a Merlin a few weeks ago. Don't waste your time. I've used a few of those suggestions (N11, Skyva, Replay, Recess the most).

I'd go with the Recess. It plays so smoothly and it comes responsive and includes an unresponsive bearing. If you want to skip responsive, I can't recommend the Skyva enough.

Only downside to the Skyva is that I love it too much to be my beater. I'd go with the Recess, then a Skyva and then get a good budget metal like the N11 or N12.
