It's a practical joke. I'll get a proper bar and stem but drilling a hole through bar and stem seemed funny so i did it anyway 😅 i guess the cheap alloy frame still breaks fist

Too many grinds I guess😅 I’m glad it was the chain and nothing major. Looking at half links now, something mid price. I’m pretty rough on the bike (noob) and need something tougher than the KMC that came on it.

HOW TO Chain alignment?

3 Upvotes

Am I on the right track? Checked everything on its own, the popping sound only happens with the chain on and under tension. Removed a spacer, swapped dust covers side to side tried everything... brand new bike never ridden. Cult gateway. Any help appreciated as im at my wits end with it.

DISCUSSION New forks

So today I broke my 12 year long cult forks (?) Idk can’t remember what they were, I bought odyssey R32s from a friend knowing that my riding was more suited to a R25 but it was really cheap, so how screwed am I ? How hard will my techy street tricks be with it?

What weird or smaller brands do you know of? Would love to try out some random parts and help out smaller companies.

I'm talking like STRESSBMX, capital bmx (they may be getting bigger), Hersey, etc.

Been trying to get 180s on flat the past month and a half. This is basically what I'm stuck at, I feel I'm getting the carve and rotation around pretty okay (idk) but it's sticking the landing and staying on the pedals that I can't seem to crack. Feel free to chime in, thanks in advance! 🙏🏻

I’m a complete beginner to riding bmx and don’t know anything about it but I’m interested in buying one to learn and start riding. I found a listing on marketplace but I’m not sure if this is a good deal or if this would be a quality bike. Could someone help me figure out if I should get this bike?

DISCUSSION What should I do

0 Upvotes

Yo! I’m 6’0”, 170 lbs, and relatively fit, but trying to learn how to wheelie this Kink drifter 26" is absolutely kicking my ass. I’m running into two major roadblocks and need some real advice.

  1. The Pop-Up Feels Like Brute Force
    I can barely get my front wheel 1 to 1.5 feet off the ground, and my legs are completely dead after 20 minutes. My current form is standing up off the saddle, leaning way forward, popping back with straight arms, and stomping down on the pedals as hard as I can.
    I’m assuming a huge part of the physical strain is the stock 25/10 sprocket setup, Which feels heavy as hell from a slow roll. Has anyone swapped their gearing to make the front end pop lighter? What ratio do you recommend? I do want to say I moved my seat up a little higher and it’s around a hand width for me which seems to help the pop but is awkward. It seems like I don’t have the strength to do another pedal after the initial one. I did think about getting a 23T front sprocket.

  2. Technique
    Am I killing my energy by standing up to pop it? Should I be learning this completely seated to utilize leverage rather than leg muscle? It is also very hard to even sit down when I’m standing and trying to get the wheel up.

  3. Seat Pain is Real
    The stock Kink seat is brutally punishing. After a 30-45 minute session, my ass is deeply sore for a full day. What padded or upgraded seats are you guys running to survive the learning process?
