Those Billet BMX pedals.....🔥

[@ShOwStOpp3rr]

whew gorgeous bike...💣💣

[@TheNostalgicNeighborhood]

It’s such a beautiful build. The whitewalls on those black tires, combined with the white on the grips and cracks really pulls it all together. 🤩 Top notch. You should totally be proud ❤

[@cruisinginthe808]

Totally agree with you there. Those whitewalls just take it to the next level. Thanks man! 🤙🏻

[@RadBMXBuilds]

I love 26” BMX cruisers with taller BMX bars. Such a clean build. Great video as always. Stay rad!

[@cruisinginthe808]

Appreciate it! Thanks man! 🤙🏻

[@chrisparker7815]

Sweet!

[@byronbrookshire8978]

Awesome bike looks great

[@NewHopeBrewing]

Great build, loved the videos. This build got me hooked on the channel, and I just bought a 26” white race inc frame and bottema fork to build up. Great deal on planet bmx. Excited to build it. Damn you Bernie and Kevin for doing this to me! 😂🍻

[@cruisinginthe808]

😂 Sorry bro! But that's what happens when you get back into BMX with adult money! Keep us posted on the new build! And yes, the deals on Planet BMX are awesome! The only thing that kills us is the shipping to Hawaii. Thanks for taking the time to comment and watch the video! Appreciate you! 🤙🏻

[@karlr7088]

The Race inc Looks amazing , 26 in size looks so balanced too , thanks guys 👍

[@cruisinginthe808]

Itʻs a fantastic bike and itʻs become one of my favorites. I really like how it turned out. Thanks for sharing that comment and for watching! 🤙🏻

Thanks man! Appreciate you! 🤙🏻

[@jeff7712]

Love the build! Love the billet parts also, did billet stem, tensioners, deez nutz on the axles and bar ends for my 26 Monza build. You motivated me to do a Monza build after seeing yours and found out about billet from your channel also!

[@cruisinginthe808]

Right on! We love hearing that! Send us some pics or tag us if you post any on IG! Thanks for taking the time to share that awesome comment and thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

[@jeff7712]

@@cruisinginthe808will do! you got me hooked, just ordered a race inc 26 frame with Botega forks and a boat load of billet parts.

[@cruisinginthe808]

Thatʻs a great start man! Youʻre gonna love those parts and that frame and fork set! 🤙🏻

[@chrisseeman2215]

Bike looks awesome! I really like the white and blue.

[@cruisinginthe808]

Thank you! Yeah, blue and white make a good color combo! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻

[@billetbmx]

Bike came out awesome!

[@cruisinginthe808]

Gotta agree with you there! Those parts of yours just take it to another level! Thanks bro! 🤙🏻

[@perfectionpainting4513]

Looks really nice! I just got a black 26" Monza and got a bunch of gold Billet Bmx parts to put on it.

[@cruisinginthe808]

Thatʻs killer! Send us some pics or tag us on IG if you post any. Appreciate you sharing that comment and for watching! 🤙🏻

[@juddosborne305]

Super clean build

[@cruisinginthe808]

Thanks Judd! Appreciate you always tuning in each week! 🤙🏻

[@willetherington4271]

Great build. Seems like the biller prods are made just for that bike the way yal have it. Good call on the blue sticker set. Also, thanks for showing that gt last week. I got same one on Planet, 599. No shipping and no tax since I sent it to NY for my lil brother. What a steal that I found only cause of you guys. Keep up with all ya do and more some day. Yal have something special. Will.

[@cruisinginthe808]

I was all set to pick that same GT from Planet but they wanted way too much in shipping. Glad I waited! Stoked that you were able to get one! Appreciate your comment and you taking the time to watch! 🤙🏻

[@richardburgarella4875]

A+ Very cool build & bike!

[@catmandooitbetter1901]

Awesome build guys. She's cherry!

[@catmandooitbetter1901]

I gave well traded one of my restorations to a father down the block , just trying to keep BMX alive.

[@cruisinginthe808]

That’s awesome man! Hope he gets back into it! Appreciate the kind words about the build and thanks for watching!! 🤙🏼

[@blackbeansmatter1280]

I remember seeing my first Race back in the mid 80's. The welds were so dope.

[@cruisinginthe808]

Back in the day, Race Inc wasnʻt a bike that we saw. I had to be introduced to it late in life as I got back into it. Seems like they were heavy hitters back in the day and itʻs nice to sill see them around! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻

[@RadDadBMX]

Looks awesome!

[@cruisinginthe808]

Just trying to be like our buddy in Texas! Thanks man! 🤙🏻

[@TuesdaysTurn]

Great build!

[@cruisinginthe808]

Thanks man! Hey, we gotta connect to see if we can meet up when weʻre up there in Cali! 🤙🏻

[@RatRacer503]

Looks amazing Kev. She’s a keeper…got a chrome stem from Billet just because it’s so pretty. Got to save up for those pedals though. Mahalo 🤙🤙🤙

[@cruisinginthe808]

Dude, I wanna get me a chrome stem like the one Bernie got for his Hutch just because that thing is so nice! Yeah, these pedals are expensive and while they are really nice, they are eating up my shins! I just move the bike and sometimes Iʻll get caught on the pedals. Breaks the skin everytime. Thanks for the comment and for watching another one! 🤙🏻

[@juddosborne305]

Let’s get it !!!!

[@80sbmxkid]

Another kick ass build.

[@cruisinginthe808]

Appreciate you saying that man! Thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

[@jasondunlap9823]

Beautiful build . Continue to really enjoy the videos.

[@cruisinginthe808]

Thanks man! Really appreciate you saying that. Thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

[@chrisstephenson8311]

Man cruising in the 808 love the bike and colors👍🏻👍🏻 I am gonna get the race inc RA24” here in a few days with the blue accents👍🏻 looks like a great built bike and really want to get a 24” skyway white frame and do white skyway mags and make an almost all white bike👍🏻 I think that would look sweet! Or I could do blue skyway mags on the ra24” race inc bike🤔

[@cruisinginthe808]

You got some good ideas there! Either way is gonna look killer! The Race Incs have the wider dropout and use that spacer if you run regular wheels so keep that in mind. Keep us posted on your builds! Thanks for sharing that with us and for watching!!🤙🏼

[@thebikefam]

Super nice. Been eyeballing the Race Inc bikes at my bike shop…

[@thebikefam]

I don’t think anybody really cares about your relationship with these guys by the way. You’re trying to build a cool bike, and make a good video… They’re trying to sell cool parts. It’s all good to me.

[@cruisinginthe808]

Thanks man! Appreciate those comments. Just want to be open about how we do things. Now is a good time to check out a Race Inc. because they seem to be dropping their prices. They are nice bikes! 🤙🏼

[@buddyjune8673]

Awesome job!! Looks amazing!!! I just finished my RA26 and would love to send you a pic and get your feedback. Again, Awesome job!!

[@cruisinginthe808]

Go for it! You can find me on Instagram or go to my website at www.cruisinginthe808.com to send me photos. I’d be happy to give you some feedback! Thanks for watching! 🤙🏼

[@alansaltiban1639]

i'm looking to pick one up, was wondering where do you order your bikes from? so many sites/shipping to choose? i live on maui so looking at reliable shipping options too, if you don't mind sharing. much apprecited, luv the OG content!

[@coldcrush9]

Can we get a Billet BMX discount too?🤣

[@billetbmx]

We have sales during the year for major holidays. Sign up on our mailing list to get notified. Thanks

[@403Pantera1]

The rhyno lites are my personal favourite, the only thing I’d do differently is run a machined/polished edge so you don’t get that worn out look, especially when you go single brake like I do

[@cruisinginthe808]

I love the Rhyno Lites too! Solid rims! Great idea on the machined/polished edge. That worn out brake pad look isnʻt very appealing. Can you buy them that way or do you have to do the polishing on your own? Thanks for sharing that and for watching! 🤙🏻

[@403Pantera1]

@@cruisinginthe808 I got a set of rhyno lites for my 24 on eBay from 365cycles I believe, they were supposed to be one brand of hub but got black ops sealed bearing flip flops instead but they did have those exact rims still I believe let me know if you luck out!!

[@espresso1967]

What cog and how many teeth? 36t front, how does she ride on flatlands cruising?

[@garlenhennig29]

What height S&M bars did you go with? Did you cut them down? Awesome build

[@cruisinginthe808]

I want to say the bars are in the 9 inch range. I like taller bars so I'll usually go with 9, 9 and a quarter, even 9.5. I can't remember if we cut the bars down. Some are really wide and need like a half an inch to an inch off both sides. Thanks for the comment and for watching!🤙🏻

[@anthonystockfleth4278]

Awesome job!Have you ever thought about a chrome seat post?

[@cruisinginthe808]

To be honest, I think I kinda want a white seat post. But the chrome would look good too since itʻs a blue, white, and chrome build. I did that with my Big Ripper where I got my bars, cranks, and seat post all powder coated white. If you check some of my older stuff or go back in my IG feed, youʻll be able to see it. Appreciate your feedback and thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

[@anthonystockfleth4278]

@@cruisinginthe808 Powdercoating the parts would be nice.The crome seat post would balance out the fork and bars.Loving the videos.

[@cruisinginthe808]

Thanks man! Appreciate that! 🤙🏻

[@quanglu2359]

So nice how much the bike total weight?

[@cruisinginthe808]

I've never put it on a scale but it's gotta be about 30 lbs? They usually fall in the range of 27 to 33 lbs or so. Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻

[@wstanford5]

How was installing the Billet BMX spacers in the rear dropouts? Am i gonna need 4 hands to spread the frame lol About to start putting together my 29" just waiting on the tensioner. Sick bike brother!

[@cruisinginthe808]

Thanks man! Yeah that rear dropout (and your forks too) are a pain in the you know what to get wheels on. Bernie got the fork on himself but I had to help pull apart the rear end to fit the wheel on it so be warned! Good luck with your install and keep us posted! Mahalo!! 🤙🏼

[@roberthull959]

Awesome build bro!!! I know its just preference, but even back in the day, the brake lever covers to me screamed gimicky. Think they were lizard skins? But hey, just my opinion

[@cruisinginthe808]

For me, it was always just a way to keep the lever from getting banged up when I crashed in a race. The Paul levers arenʻt cheap either so I guess itʻs still the same way now! 😂 Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
