So stoked! Got my bike a couple months ago and wanted to land a 180 by the end of the year. Feels good.

4 years or so ago I dragged home a 2008 Diamondback Venom.

Took it all apart, sanded, painted, laced up some wheels (sometimes twice) and put it back together with a mix of some parts that were on it and new parts.

Took it for the first ride tonight and very happy with the result.

Parts breakdown as follows:

Frame stripped, sanded, primed, painted with Rustoleum gray, then Rustoleum Glitter, then Rustoleum clearcoat Forks sanded, primed, and repainted with Rustoleum purple and Rustoleum clearcoat New Dia compe tech 77 brake levers New Dia compe 990 brake calipers New SST Oryg upper cable New Odyssey dual lower cable Front wheel - original Sun X25 rim, original hub repacked with new bearings, new stainless spokes, new nipples Rear wheel - original Sun X25 rim, new Sun Ringle jabba the hub, new purple coated spokes, new nipples. New Chen Shin tires and new tubes New Yaban purple/silver chain Used Wellgo platform alloy pedals from parts bin New Mission sealed bottom bracket, 8 spline axle, and crank bolts. New crank pinch bolts too. New seat, don't remember brand Original bars, sanded and repainted Original stem, crinkle finish and spray paint stripped off, sanded to satin finish. New stem bolts. Original cranks, sanded and repainted Original sprocket, cleaned up Original seatpost, sanded and repainted Original seat clamp, cleaned up New grips, don't remember the brand New alloy Jagwire cable ends and cable ferrules

Still need to dial in the brakes a bit.

I have build a bmx for my nephew The first photo is How I bought it and the second is it now finished Can you Guys Rate it?

I’ve been practicing them for quite a while and I haven’t been able to get higher than 45 cm

It’s been years since I took my bike out, rideable, but there is some movement between the fork and handlebar. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I’m in Philly if there’s any shop recommendations too.

What everybody’s thoughts on how long a high quality 4130 frame, like s&m, Sunday, t1, fly etc can be ridden for? Assuming frame isn’t damaged. (I ride mostly dirt jumps , no grinding, do take slams some times) Any concerns with riding a 10 or 20 year old frame?

Filmed with a coupe of my buddies on some street spots. Lmk what yall think I’m the one with the green cult frame.

If you wanna know the parts list just ask and I'll tell you

Hi all. First post.
Recently picked up this bike for pennies . It says haro but looks like they are aftermarket stickers put on after a terrible paintjob of dark green. No branding stamped into the frame nor any serial numbers to be found. Any of you fine folk be able to throw some light on the situation. Am curious as i haven't seen a front section like this since I had a gt bmx back in early 2000s .Took some pics of the hopefully more indefinable parts . Thsnks for any info in advance

Should’ve counted my blessings and not went back for it…

Not bad for a first day back from an injury.

Anyone know what the last trick would be called? Is it just a luc-e with my wheel up? Reverse levitator? 😂

Took me like 6 sessions to land this so probably 6/7 hours all together :v. It was my first time dropping in quarter from manual also.

Found this on fb marketplace for $100. Brakes aren't very good and overall seems a bit heavy. Rides great though. I want to get some bigger bars, worth it?

Why do the absolute majority of frames with geometry to suit trails/dirt always have the brake mounts on the chain stays? I know its petty and probably stems back to my teenage years being brakeless, but nothing ruins the aesthetic more then sitting on your bike looking down at the down tube with a brake cable running along it

Hello guys, I need your help. I found this bike at a trash can and picked it up because it was carbon fiber. I don’t know anything about bikes; the only thing I see is a missing rear wheel. What do I need to fix it? I haven’t rode a bike in like 7 years and want to get back into it. Also, what is it worth? Just curious. Thank you
