that video was pretty ****ing dull even by fixed gear trick standards. Not only are the tricks dull there is no ****ing flow. I will admit that the bike you now ride seems much more reasonable than the one you were on last year though.
Yes BMX stands for bicycle motocross. Originally the bikes were meant for dirt courses however the design is also well suited towards freestyle. In fact I would wager that the vast majority of bmx bikes sold today are designed with no thought given to the rapidly dissapearing bmx track. If you look at bikes that evolved seperately but in the end requires much of the same movements from the rider as freestyle you'll see they converge towards a few things(think trials bikes). Small wheels, short frames, high bars, low saddle. Basically the opposite of fixed gear trick bikes.
Believe me. My goal with all of this is not to impress some out of shape / overweight mediocre sprinter from ATL who constantly pulls sub-par seasons at Dick Lane Velodrome.
oooh that hurt.
it's got a dial on it that sets the pawls from free to a fixed wheel. you mentioned that we don't see BMX kids with fixed hubs. we do, and we have for 20 years. if that's not what you meant to argue, mind your semantics.
uhhhhh no a freecoaster is not a fixed hub.
