Pretty sweet bike!

Although, as an old geezer of 40, I still can't get past the goofy slammed seat on these new bikes. :lol:
 
Yeah...I get the part about it not being in the way, but I don't think I ever see any kids around here raise the things for casual riding.

As matter of fact, I nearly busted a gut the other day watching some kid riding one down the sidewalk while sitting in the slammed seat and it was about the most dysfunctional thing you've ever seen. His knees were about up to his ears and his butt was just about rubbing the back tire. He nearly ditched it a few times as he was going along.

My perspective is....why even bother with a seat. Just run it like the Trial bike guys do. :lol:

Anyway, I guess the low seat BMX crowd just has to keep that cool look going. But you are right, you can't sit down on those things and maintain the coolness factor when you are looking like a cat trying to poop down the stairs.

:lol: :lol: :lol: wow that was funny as heck....

When I used to hang around my BMX Friends, I watched them ride with their knees in their face, as I was comfortable on my schwinn 10 speed.

I can see it being out of the way for tricks, but they never thought of quick release? Thats what i planned on putting on my azonic.

What do you think of that?

Those tires come in black, tan, white, red, or teal sidewalls.

Nice bike, but was that picture mirror because the chain ring is on the other side
