For anyone on the fence on this expensive Soundwave purchase, I say do it!! I got mine a year ago from my wife when I turned 46. Been out of it for 30 years and couldn't do jack. Being over 200 lbs at the time, falling, landing awkwardly, re-learning hops, 180s, rock n rolls and so on. I've done big drops, bowl riding etc and not a thing has squeaked or even come close to breaking. If you want to buy something and not have to worry about changing stuff all the time, you buy this bike. Another equal complete if you want more choices is the WTP Envy and Battleship.

The funny thing is I wanted to get back into bmx and actually bought a new 2022 GT performer heritage, but as soon as I saw this review I returned my GT performer instantly and got this instead, your review really got me intrigued by the Sunday Soundwave, can’t wait for it to arrive 🤞🏼

That's going to be tough. People that own this bike, including myself are holding on to these. If anything, people are marking them up being that these bikes are in high demand. I can probably sell my Soundwave that I got a year ago for pretty much what I paid for it, especially with the mark up on them that happened this year. I recently sold a pair of used Odyssey Path Pro tires for the cost of new. Literally posted them on offer up and got 3 different buyers asking for them that same day. Maybe once the demand goes down....

I don't know where you are from dude but in the UK i have seen four of the 2020 models of these sell 2nd hand recently. Currently i know 2 that are on sale for around £600. I just haven't got that cash right now otherwise id have one :(

@@avidgamer5676 I wish we had deals like that here in Cali. I'd get a second one just to have it. Out here, bikes are in huge demand. Especially for the higher end stuff. I've been wanting a higher end WTP bike and can't find one. Shops don't even know when they'll be getting new stuff either. Plus, most people know what they have and want top dollar for it. As they should. Out here anyway. I personally wouldn't sell my Soundwave for $600-700 USD. Unless I was desperate, which thankfully I'm not. I'd wait for the right buyer and get the price I want.

@@LittleBigKid707b From what i gather a few of the sound waves have been reluctant sales from result of the lockdowns and starting work again. Im broke myself so unfortunately i still cant afford one lol. I had to settle for a hardly used WTP Nova for £140 just to get me riding. added a few parts, wtp bar ends, wtp 17m socket seat post, federal pivotal blue camo seat, Eclat front and back hub guards, Plan to ride it out for 6months until i can hopefully afford a decent upgrade for the frame forks and rims. Im liking WTP even for a entry bike it rides nice... plus im only pulling noob stuff currently.

Willams($900) 26.9 lbs but remove 4 pegs and hub guards and brakes and you’re under 24 lbs too. Also colony premise ($600) 23.7 brakeless🤤 killer bike but not much aftermarket parts except tires are 110 psi.

You can throw in the Battleship into the mix also. All 3 have very very similar quality. High end frames and components on each bike. It's like saying a Ferarri and Porsche 911. Eclat and Odyssey are the only Bmx companies that have lifetime warranties on their parts and bikes and it will come down to which companies you like and want to support more. I grew up with Odyssey back in the 80s and went with the Soundwave.
