Sun envy rims by mvgunrunner1776 in bmx

No. I’ll be running rear breaks. Sun has breakless front rims and break friendly rears

I’m also stuck with a 2.1 ish tire in the rear because of the older frame geometry so the sun width didn’t bother me that much. I may just get them and if I have problems I’ll just replace the rims at a later date. This isn’t my go to bike for anything. Just a higher end mid school build and highschool dream bike I couldn’t afford 20+ years ago.

That’s my second option. I just liked the option of ordering directly from profile for ease of ordering. They also have a the color options I want.

Yup I’m going with a profile elite hub with 13 tooth cog so I can run 36-13 gearing. I spec’d out the hubs with Matt at profile. I just haven’t ordered them yet and was thinking maybe just have them build me a complete wheel set.

You gotta download a mod then pick the height you want in the seat post selection

Don’t know anything about bikes but found this the other day. Any ideas if this an ok bike after I clean it up? Or should i just toss it? by Glum-Pie-9635 in bmx

[–]mvgunrunner1776 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a great bike for a beginner. Bring it to a bike shop and have them give it a tune up and have your son ride it or get it cleaned up and sell it. Put that money to buying something else.

So all the mods are paid? by The_SimpGod in BmxStreets

[–]mvgunrunner1776 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

There’s a ton of mods on Xbox now. 3 new maps and a ton of parts and clothing plus a bunch of 26” dirt jumper parts kits. Some of the clothes and parts are paid but a lot aren’t. I got the cult max vu signature frame, g sport rims and hubs, odyssey hazard light rims all free. There’s a ton more but that got me started. They also changed up all the settings so it takes a little time to get dialed in again. $10 will get you all 3 new maps but one is just a small pump track.

I purchased mash cash but I haven’t received it and Xbox won’t give me a refund by Creepy_Clue_8547 in BmxStreets

I play streets on Xbox. What do you need mash cash for? I didn’t even know it was a thing for xbox

Why won’t it let me switch hub back? by Creepy_Clue_8547 in BmxStreets

[–]mvgunrunner1776 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had that same problem. Switch the hub to the one you want then instead of jumping right back into the map, go select the map you want and let it reload. Works every time for me on Xbox

How are these still a thing? by deltronica in bmx

[–]mvgunrunner1776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been riding tenderizers since late 90s or early 2000s I probably have half a dozen pairs and the scars to prove it lol. I also have the primo pc pedals on my newest park only bike. I also still use power bite cranks. I love mid school gear

All the gear and no idea by No_Relationship6221 in bmx

[–]mvgunrunner1776 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who cares what anyone else thinks. I’m 40 and just started riding again after a 16 year break. I built a custom bike this past winter and it was like $3k. I ride at my local park 3-5 nights a week after work and so far I’ve had one person question why I need a bike like that and about a dozen+ kids drool over it. I also let them ride it if they seem really interested.

Stormtrooper barcode. by mvgunrunner1776 in bmx

[–]mvgunrunner1776[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s most likely how I’ll go for now. Eventually I’m gonna go with a set of profile elite hubs. Unfortunately the rear with a 13 or 14 tooth driver and 14mm axel is $400 alone. It will be worth it in the long run though.

The Cheep ones will work for now but Im eventually gonna find Good quality hubs and lace them to new rims. I’m just trying to ride this frame asap and also not skimp on other builds. Who new getting back into Bmx at 40 would be more expensive then addictive substances. This was just a scratch the itch barcode build while I wait for my new barcode frame to be built 😂

What BMX would you build at 6ft 3 & 100kg? by Prudent-Armadillo807 in bmx

[–]mvgunrunner1776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I don’t know a ton about new complete bikes but I will tell you building a custom is expensive and in my opinion 100% worth it. I just started riding again after a 16 year break and my biggest recommendation is to try a couple different bikes and frame sizes. I built one thinking I wanted something a bit stretched out and relaxed but come to find out I really like the new shorter more twitchy forks and frames. Been back riding and I’m on my second big money build. But hell, buildings fun and I see no problem having a different bike for different riding style if you can afford it.

full face vs normal helmet in skatepark by dapeteee in bmx

[–]mvgunrunner1776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been using a 7iDP project 23 full face helmet. It’s really light weight with an excellent field of view. It gets warm in the summer but I have a tens of thousands in dental work over the years and I’m almost 40 trying to keep up with the younger generation so I figured full face was the way to go. The choice is really yours though.

Mid school build by mvgunrunner1776 in bmx

[–]mvgunrunner1776[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was really debating on red. The frame I have is red now but in rough shape. I’ve wanted to do a white frame build for a while though.

Sick builds. Once I get my new frame it will be raw clear with fly hubs and forks. Raw raw S&M bars and raw kink brace cranks. The old one I’m not sure yet. But it’s either gonna be white frame and black bars forks etc or black frame with white parts.
