    Baywalk Beach Cruisers Bike Club

    Here's some photos from last Friday and I just wanted to share how far Philippine custom bike building has gone in the past couple of years. The guys in the club are doing amazing things! I hope you like them :-) Built from scratch, all aluminum cruiser/tracker built by Emil Florentino. He's a...

    So that's what it's called! That's awesome! Looking at some other monoshock BMXs, this one I saw was closer to Repco's! Thank you for the info! :thumbsup:

    You guys may be right about the frame being a custom build but seeing that this bike has some age to it and our country having only a handful of custom bike builders who just came out in the last couple of years I feel that this frame may not be local. We have a very tiny community of custom...

    Yesterday I dropped by our neighborhood lowrider bike shop to buy a coaster brake when I saw this 20" beauty sitting outside the shop. The owner told me he just recently acquired it and now uses it as their shop/hauler bike. He outfitted it with a trailer hitch attached to the dropouts. Before I...

    Summer Truss Build

    Here's some photos from the first painting session, I would want to take more time on this than the usual. I plan on painting it metallic black (with a hint of glitter) and hopefully would turn out glassy after a couple of coats of clear. I want this to be my "formal" ride :-) The glitters...

    Summer Truss Build

    Hi Wildcat, how's the weather there in Subic? I plan on using this as my daily rider and yes they are 26 x 1 3/8. I'm not really quite sure if they're locally built or imports re-branded. Patria is the only local one we know of, but closed shop decades ago. I'll dig deeper. I'm also actually on...

    Summer Truss Build

    Summertime in the Philippines is the best time for bike builds! Paint jobs will bake nicely under the scorching heat and it's too hot to ride during the day anyway (between 36°C - 40°C). I'm using one of the truss frames I salvaged from a junkyard...

    Wow, I didn't know that the traffic problem has crept into Subic as well! I guess the traffic situation is not only a problem in Manila now. Where on the seat post did it bend? Was it near the seat clamp or the laid back part of the post? Also, don't get those China-made chromed BMX laid back...
