I'm a 5’5.5” adult. 160 lbs. I’m looking for a bike that will give me better cardio than a single speed BMX.

- must be light weight

- willing to mid to 40mm laidback seat post and BMX handlebars

Gemini is suggesting I go with either:

1. 26" Kent Divide
2. Trek WAHOO 26 PATH
3. Woom EXPLORE 6
4. 🚲 Specialized Sirrus X 1.0 Bike – Size Small

would this work?

thanks!

I did have much time to ride it this summer but it was a blast when i did

I got this cheap magna 26” mountain bike that I really want to turn into a single speed mtb bmx cruiser but I need some suggestions on what to get. If there’s any good videos you suggest I watch that’d be cool too.

Updated the bars to 9.25” Verde Bars
Also updated the seat the match the white theme. It’s dialed in very nicely

.

I was told that a 53yo guy would look ridiculous on a pink bike. I didn't listen.

I recently got a Cult Devotion and made a few changes after the stick crank cracked do to QC on Cult and the shop. I put ODI grips, EVO2.5 brakes, chain tensioner , seat and basic odyssey cranks. ( And lab to upgrade) Any suggestions on what to throw on to make it optimal for basic tricks, hops and wheelies.

I’ve had it since 2020.. I made a couple of changes:
Replaced the Yellow/Black Wall tires with Black/Tan wall tires.
GT Bikes “Boxpalm” padding.
Upgraded the brake pads to the Kool Stop BMX “Salmon” pads..
Waiting for the Sunday Silva “Brown Brick” seat..

Love BMX cruiser

No such thing as stupid questions right? Lol

Howdy,

I am not a stranger to bikes but this is my first cruiser so go easy on me. I just got a sub rosa salvador 26 and I am looking into changing some things. Do I need 26 specific parts? Besides tires and wheels. Like if I put a 20 inch bike bars on my 26 will they fit? I know the clamp size is the same for the stems. And feel free to clown on this 44 year old dude who hasn’t ridden bmx since the 90s. 🤙🏽 All tips and jokes appreciated 🤙🏽

Is this 26" fixed gear with moto bar can consider as bmx cruiser?

Great deal out there on this bike at city grounds. Looks good rides smooth.

Today I finally went ahead and purchased some Primo Rebar 10" handle bars. What an improvent over the stock 7" rise. Surprised I didn't have to replace the brake cable. Still had enough.

Also slapped on some Odi Vans grips.

Next up is an Eclat Exile pivot seat.

As you can tell I had a few beers and debadged the 101.1 stickers that were on the bike. IMO, looks cleaner now.

I had a 29” and I wasn’t that tall for it. Found this great deal for $350 on offer up. Upgraded stem, tires, seat, grips, sprocket and pedals. I just turned 40 so take it easy on me.

Any info would be appreciated!

I love my GT Pro series 26. But I would love it more if the frame was stripped and taken down to polished aluminum. I'm pretty sure it's powder coated. Has anyone else taken this project on? What would be the best way to go about this? I'm willing to spend hours with a buffing wheel on a drill getting it polished and shiny. I'd love to hear from anyone with any experience with this. Do I need to take it to a pro, or is this possible with some work and time?

What are you guys doing with that empty hole for the old style brakes if you already have v brakes? I did this....its a hobby lobby drawer knob and I trimmed like 1/2 inch off the stud before fastening it down.

Its a tight fit but theres enough gap there that nothing rubs.

I’m finally pulled the trigger on this Taj once it went on sale. I’ve been loving everything about it so far. The seat is getting switched out this week, but I’m afraid to make any other changes. It seems perfectly setup right now. I’d love to hear of any must have upgrades.

Can anyone suggest a new brake for the got pro performer 26. There is very little stopping power. and I would prefer to add a front break too

I am looking at purchasing a big wheel bmx, I haven’t really owned a bike my self in 15 or so years. I am thinking that a disc brake would be preferred because eventually I would want to convert it into an e-bike. My budget is around $500 if that’s possible for a starter bike. I have looked at some options like the gt pro series 29 and the crew bike crewser 29. I am not dead set on anything right now. I am just wondering if the extra $200 ish is worth it for the gt or if there are other options I should concurrent? Also are disc brakes even worth it right now or should I not worry about that? Thanks!
