Looks pretty good. Make sure you clearcoat that raw stuff or it'll rust in the matter of days.

How do you like that sunday frame.
I have been buying my parts for another build.
I was thinking about the Funday or the 2nd wave

Thanks guys. I didn't think it was 27 either. Before the rebuild, it was at 30.

I took it to the park today. I didn't realize how quiet those plegs are. Had fun cruising around and trying to re-learn stuff from over a decade ago.

Yep, I just got on here mainly to ask something about a road bike, and decided i would try to add to the bmx discussion here as well.

I recognize the bike, I was super surprised you had a GT frame, because it didn't look like it till i took a closer look

Yeah it's a GT frame. It also weighs 8 pounds. Haha. I can't wait until probably this Christmas to get a new frame.

Yeah, I had a Stock DK General lee frame (actually, i rebuilt it after i upgraded all of the parts on my bike) that weighed like 7 pounds. It's incredible how much you notice things like that. The whole bike is a tank.

Ill give this a shot, im just getting back into bmx after i took a few years off to get back into skateboarding(i missed the feeling of just coasting through a parking lot with no hands on the handle bars)

so heres mine, i got it from a friend so i know nothing about it.



My friend just gave it to me so i really dont care whats on it, it works for me, and being over 6' tall your options kinda slim down quite a bit as to whats available.

I'm 6' 5", i can still ride a 20" but i look awfully funny doing it

I would rather look funny doing some awesome flatland tricks than sitting on a bench saying, look at that guy go! tbbh
