I feel like your work rate and detailed videos are beneficial for the bmx scene, especially for those with less knowledge than some. On that note I'd love to see your subs and views skyrocket and you get the recognition you deserve. Keep doing your stuff man. Thanks

I built my own. All aftermarket brand new parts. I spent around 3k usd including the shipping. I got the right geometry/size i need. But it took me quite long time before i ended up choosing the size that suits me.

Thanks for the video! Do you know if the listing weight of 27.7 is with or without brake and pegs?

Hey, thanks for the reviews! Would this be a good deal for 800$ brand new? Im a complete beginner btw, did some bmx riding back in 1992-1994 😅

What about buying this ride and throwing all the parts onto an aftermarket Williams frame further down the road?

The long fork offset and low rise of the stem confuse me. I think a steeper offset (20-24mm) fork would suit the Williams better, more so given the 21" toptube. Personally, I'd be looking for another 13/14mm of stem rise, too. While the Williams complete DOES NOT feature the aftermarket Williams frame, I want to point out that the Williams complete frame has butted top and down tubes. Also, if you look at the Williams complete on the Kink website, it states the fork has a 1.5-piece steerer tube, whatever the f*ck that is? Not impressed with the 19mm diameter crank spindle either; it should be 22mm to meet today's street riding standards. The pinned rims are another concern. At the least, the rear rim should be welded at the seam. However, I do appreciate the 21" toptube. I can't give this bike any more than 7/10 for its asking price; it's a very good bike for an intermediate rider but I feel it's advertised as a Pro level bike, which it just is not. The WTP Battleship and top-tier Sunday completes are a better choice for the slightly higher asking prices.
