BMX led to freestyle, mtb, fixed and permanently encoded on my DNA cyclist for life.
It all goes back to my first Redline MXII.

Definitely worth a look at, even if you don't like riding bmx. Just a buttload of rad bikes.

this is infact a death cycle for anything other than super casual rolling around in lowtraffic areas. mostly it gets ridden around in circles around the bike shop.
the wheel is a fixed gear wheel from an old exercise bike with steel rims and solid rubber tires. I think the wheel weighs as much as the rest of bike. Fixed cog no lock ring, I am fully aware of how stupid this is but the bike was made entirely out of things that were laying around and there were no free lockrings to be found.
