ditch the 1pc. crank, drop the seat way down, ditch the brakes altogether, and slap some stickers on it. for starters.

I say ride it till you break things, then replace the parts or spring for a new bike worth the upgrades.

You don't have to slam your seat. It's a trend. Just lower it some. And leave your back brakes on if you want. But, yeah get some 3-piece cranks.

and dont forget stickers. those always make your bike look way rad. just dont put any lame stickers on there like barney or some **** like that.

just get a new bike.
I think bikes look a lot better with out stickers. Stickers make it look worse.

well if the stickers are in the right places then it looks sick. thats why right now my bike looks a little whack hahaha.
and dont forget to swap cranks and ditch the brakes. that would make the bike look really cool. much more modern

Take off the front brakes, get U-brakes for the rear (I'm assuming the rears are V-type now), get a new seat, new grips. if you aren't going to be doing massive barspins, take the rear brakes off the rotor. this give more power, but they won't let you do constant barspins, just a few. about the sticker thing, trust me, they look better without.

you are an idiot. you cant just swap from v brake to u brake, the posts dont match up. the bike is a peice of crap and he probably isnt doing any tricks on it, and don't bump useless old threads.

when did bmx get so freakin trendy? That bike Isnt going to last a long time. 1pc cranks, plastic pedals, and im assuming an aluminum or hi-ten frame arent going to stand up to much. lower the seat IF it feels better to YOU that way. Leave the brakes until YOU are sure you're not going to do anything with em. front brakes can be fun, i was front brake only for a while. One thing i do recommend is choppin those bars down some. wide bars will get in you way.
