39 YR OLDS & BMX BIKES

[CCR]

Yeah Clancy...that was the first thing I thought about...I need a helmet.

this comes to mind :lol:

 

[Rat Rod]

Yep...that would pretty much finish the..."Hey, I'm almost 40 and I'm trying to feel young again" look. :lol:

I'll just have to shove a giant wad of watermelon Bubble Yum in my mouth and stick a HUGE neon plastic comb in my back pocket to complete the ensemble. :lol:

 

[CCR]

... dont forget the neon oakleys

 

[Rat Rod]

And my Member's Only jacket and parachute pants. :lol:

 

[CCR]

I dont know how i missed the members only thing, I remember the parachute pants though :lol: I did have some rockin BIGFOOT and Carolina Crusher t-shirts I was pretty proud of in grade school. The mullet / buzz cuts with lines and lightning bolts shaved in the sides. Silk shirts didnt hit until the 90's though. Even after remembering all that cheesiness the gumwalls still seem cool to me :lol:

my lbs says theres a difference between gumwalls and skinwalls ... and tanwalls could mean either. from the pics those demolitions look closer to traditional gumwalls to me.

 

[Pinche]

I'm voting for the white walls. The gums may of came on the bike originally but they just don't flow with the bike. It's the saddle that kills the gums.

 

[outskirtscustoms]

I vote for the whitewalls too, they just look "right" I'd also go with the white grips.

 

[Rat Rod]

There will be a blue seat on the bike soon. :mrgreen:

[Rat Rod]

You ain't kiddin'.

That's why it's so much easier to kill yourself on one of these at 39. :lol:

 

[outskirtscustoms]

Just need a bigger bike that's all

 

[Rat Rod]

 

[outskirtscustoms]

Nice! Trade ya?

 

[A.S.BOLTNUT]

Got that same white dominator seat on my 26'' bmx not very confortable :| sure looks cool though ! :lol:

 

[Rat Rod]

Got my 20" x 2.00" Demolition Momentum Skinwalls in and got them installed.

Also...Justin from Porkchop BMX hooked me up with some of his SWEET DiaCompe MX1000 brakes and a new Power Disc.
