That is well nice. Looks good with Tuff's, but think it might look even better with some chrome 7x's on it.

If you plan on racing it, you may want to re-consider.

i can only just ride it without stabalisers there is no way i can keep up with some of you guys, i know what you mean though, brakes tend not to work with tuffs
Title: Re: my ride for bournmouth
Post by: Sanmarcopizza on August 01, 2005, 11:47 AM
I was thinking more the bend, wobble & flex effect, but I could probably make a wheel with scaffold spokes bend with my weight LOL.

this sport is about speed, therefore brakes are for pussys

It looks amazing with the 7X.

Post by: Dingobmxer on August 02, 2005, 07:15 AM
Matt, that is a hell of a nice bike, but I like the spokes better, do you have a pair to put on it?
I would love to have two pics to compare
 :) DINGO :)

Love the tuffs! My only nitpick is the age of them, alloy hubs would have been better, but that bike is da BOMB yo! (see, I'm down with the kids!) I feel like an ar$e nitpicking on such a righteous ride!
Title: Re: my ride for bournmouth
Post by: Zippy on August 02, 2005, 07:49 PM
Obviously it doesn't look like a Burner.
Looks like a Super Tuff Burner.
It's a completely different machine.
You should accept the compliment as it was meant as the Super Tuff Burner was the daddy of all bmx's

keep the tuffs. if you want super unflexible performance, buy a nu skool.if you want a cool ride, its tuffs all the way.
Title: Re: my ride for bournmouth
Post by: dirtyvans on August 04, 2005, 02:02 PM
yeah keep the tuffs they look cool when racing, plus you wil probably flat spot spokies on the concrete jumps :o
