I kinda want the bars off your hoffman.

wethepeople 01-27-07 11:57 PM

I have the same ones on my MacNeil, pretty comfy bars.

FitRider 921 01-28-07 12:00 AM

I'm in desperate need for new bars... I'll probably end up with the Sunday Colors.

wethepeople 01-28-07 12:02 AM

I'll suggest it before Kinetic does-SLAMS.

I'll suggest it before Beerman does-BERINGER

I want to try out Piff Bars.

Too big for me... not a fan of the Beringers... the Piffs look cool though. They aren't heat-treated and don't have a warranty though.

I also really liked my Haro Slims when I was learning, pretty comfy bars and they were cheap. In fact after I broke them I bought another pair, then a few days later bought the Wethepeoples.

Yeah, the Ody skim milk bars are better though, just a wee bit more expensive.

wethepeople 01-28-07 12:14 AM

Ya, but it's hard to complain about a decent part when it's free.

Sorry bro, but your not allowed to say 'hella' until you have at least one Solid BMX product on your bicycle.


And just get some S&M or Sunday bars.
Slams, Mediums, Berringers, and Triumphs are all awesome.

You can always give back to the bmx community and give me free parts. ;)

I'll probably end up with Sunday Colors... I hate wide bars.

Yeah, yeah Mr. Slams Man. I like Sunday! and the bars look hella nice.

P.S. I used the word "hella" just to annoy you.

Haha.
Sunday makes like 25-25" bars. They look nice. Tudors or whatever...
But those like 23" Sundays are like small. How do people ride such small bars? Fly makes tiny bars too.

I just don't get it because i think with handlebars you should put your arm's straight out and wherever they sit on the bars is where you should grip them/the size you should cut them too. And for me that's in the middle of my Slams. And i hate riding my friends bikes with tiny bars where i have to like crunch up my shoulders.

EDIT: By middle of the bars i mean the middle of where my grips are. Not the crossbar like Fit rider would say haha.

eightdip 01-31-07 12:48 PM

Like whatever man. Like Like

Eh. I'm just not a fan of wide bars at all because it doesn't feel comfortable for me to have my hands that far apart. I like smaller bars and they are a lot easier to throw barspins with and I don't know, I just like smaller bars better... maybe it's because I'm a New Yorker. Sunday, Fly, and Fit were the major companies I was looking at... but I heard some people messed up their Fit bars, and Fly doesn't have a good warranty, and everything Sunday makes is amazing.

New piccie of the Ruben

That's a cool wall... and a cool bike. I think it would look even better with a black seat.

MadMan2k 01-31-07 04:21 PM

Nice. I actually like the seat.

eightdip 01-31-07 04:31 PM

Thanks madman, it is an aquired taste

premiumbmx2005 01-31-07 04:57 PM

not too fond of that seat but it looks so nice.

btw, i recovered my seat. came out decent.

mude 01-31-07 07:14 PM

actually i like your bike

KinetikBiker 02-01-07 07:29 AM

I like it eightdip.
The seat looks cool. Ya just can't sit on it. But i love the frame color and all.

New stickers. Haha.

This is my friends (he doesn't ride anymore...) Shadow wheel that i'm running until they give me my driver. (The tire is his too, and it's terrible. I can't even pedal in wet grass let alone ride trails.) If i wasn't so lazy i'd put my tire on it.

http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j3...e/HPIM0081.jpg
My first loaner wheel. R.I.P. The driver is skips, There are plenty of spokes broken and missing. It's custom laced by me so it will spin! :)


http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j3...e/HPIM0083.jpg
Nice Myspace-esque angle of my bike.

And last but not least! Everyone's favorite bars!

Yeah if you can't tell i got bored. Like those couches they are old and in my garage for some reason. The wood in the backround is for my ramp. Too bad i'm too lazy to build it.

FitRider 921 02-01-07 10:48 AM

I like the shadow stickers... and since when does someone just have a shadow hub and haz light rim just laying around? I need to live where you live. I'd buy it from him.
