Modern day complete BMX bikes are at such a high quality at an affordable price and in this video we take a look at the bikes that are in stock at our family's bike shop and tell you the prices and the differences between them. We also test the quality of one of our cheaper BMX bikes by having Matty try to learn a trick on his expensive custom BMX and then immediately try to learn it on the cheap bike!

The modern cro mo three piece cranks that come as standard on most mid to high end completes are pretty damn good , back in the early 90s a crank set like we see today would have been considered a pro level item , and would have cost over £120.00

My first bike was made from a frame me and my buddies got and we built it up with spare parts! Now I just got back into riding after taking a break for 10 years… I may have went all out and got a built s&m around 1500-$2000 bike. I love it. Nothing like I’ve ever ridden it’s insanely light definitely made me get back on the saddle. Love you guys keep going! You were the first channel I subbed to. 15 years ago when you guys started. ❤❤ thanks for always releasing wholesome down to earth videos.

I started riding in the early 90s and started working at a shop in the early 00s and got my first bike for $189, it was a Huffy Supercharger race bike that I decked out w/ all Primo parts and Sun BFR rims and it road great, just different geometry from street bikes which helped my bunny hops.... Later I went to an old DK frame then after that I got an Eastern Dragon 3 w/ some Eastern cranks, Eastern Slim Forks and Stolen Cell Bars and I still ride it now. I'd like to get some new wheels but I can't get hubs in 48h anymore so I'd have to change to 36h rims and hubs... But then I could also get a freecoaster to try out but I think I'd prefer cassette because I like the pedal pressure feeling, or I'm just old. 😂

When I rode flatland years ago, whenever I did backward peg decades on my 88 Haro Master my left foot always touched the ground after I went over the head tube instead of landing on the back peg. I had been trying for 6 months to pull it without touching without success. A friend of mine got a brand new 92 Master which had been redesigned, and from the very first time I did the trick on his bike my foot would land on the back peg. I realized right then how much difference a bike can make! Congrats to whoever ends up getting the free bike. Edit: Years later I had Trend Bike Source build a custom Morales Pro Flat that cost $1300. I absolutely hated it bc the geometry made pulling links I had totally dialed for years nearly impossible. If at all possible I suggest test riding a bike before you buy it, or at least ask other riders that have one what their opinion of the bike is. Just because it's the most expensive doesn't mean it's the best!!!

I’m 51 years old, in the 80’s my best friend was sponsored by SE and we rode our bikes everywhere everyday, I had a mongoose that got stolen, saved up got a GT, damned if that didn’t get ripped. pitfalls of living in Detroit, ended up with a Redline I had for a few years got older sold it, but I still love BMX and freestyle, I tune in to these videos to see what’s new now. my GT cost me 599.00 in 86, which I thought was crazy expensive. my buddy got his free he was sponsored, we would race Waterford a lot, he even raced at the Pontiac silver dome a few times. good to see young dudes still rippin and runnin. 👍🏻

My favorite bike back in the day was a traded frame. Pretty sure it was a DK, had layers and layers of spray paint on it, and pieced together parts. Kink 3 piece, their super thick sprocket and chain, primo head set and Moe bars, decent triple wall rims and tires, mostly out of junk/part bins of my buddies. I maybe had $100 in it all and rode the ever living mess out of it. A expensive bike might last a little longer than a cheap one, but it's more the rider and style that says how long it'll last. I picked up a Eastern Ace of Spades and literally destroyed it within a year of "recovery" riding and it was $900 out the door

I still wish I would have had him sign it. so if you want or need a bike don't be afraid to call SC bicycles and ask them for what you want, they will accommodate you and are very helpful.

It's never too late! There's a lot of older folks who ride and can shred! A few years back, I decided I wanted to get into bmx flatland .. and I ended up finding this channel and was totally hooked! I don't ride as much as I'd like because of work and southeast texas just gets too fricken hot to ride. But that's just an excuse. I'm only 37 ( turning 38 at the end of the month ) and I wish I would've gotten started when I was younger. But yeah, I feel it's never too late to get into a hobby. Being older, it just takes a while longer to recover. But being athletic like you mentioned, I think you'll do well. I spend $450ish on a complete 20" bike, full chromoly frame, forks etc., all that you need. I upgraded some parts along the way, now I have 3 fully built bikes lol. Ugh, I just need to get my ass outside and ride! Good luck!

That's such a cool trick. I haven't been riding much due to the flu but I went for my first ride in 6 weeks on Sunday and felt great, was really enjoying jumping speed humps (still my favourite thing since I first learnt to jump. It's like an invitation to jump, a perfect little jump in the middle of the road. 😜) then my back went out on me on Monday morning and sadly will have to wait a few days for that to get better to ride again. Speaking of complete bikes, my Division Brookside 20 incher has been holding up a treat. Super strong and it has to be, I weigh 126kg (2.2 pounds per kilogram if you want to do the maths) but I love that bike. It practically lives in my car during the week so I can ride it after work. It's actually improved my skills on my bigger bikes. Now I am 47 years old and doubt I will be doing anything as huge as Matty but it's really impressed me that Division. So I agree with Scotty, those complete bikes are really great for introductions to BMX or coming back to it.

Back when I was a decent rider, I always rode beat up, undialed bikes, some with lots of used parts. Did some really good riding on basically trash. I've seen dudes shred some really garbage bikes. Having a proper dialed bike with reliable parts helps, but it's not a true requirement. Ride what you've got, and don't worry about who says what about it. Rise above and show em all what's up. Obviously, the more you pay, typically, will get you a stronger full 4130 frame, fork, and bars, and a higher quality parts package. All beneficial when you've taken your riding past the beginner stages. Nathan Williams, for example, would destroy the wheels and snap a frame that is Tri-moly with a cheap parts package. Buy what you can afford that suits your level of riding. The rider makes the rider, not the bike makes the rider. Remember that, and you'll be good.

Ok well let me tweak my previous comment. It was made literally 1 sec in. The quality of bikes you have at your shop is a lot different then what I was thinking. I meant like CHEAAAPPPP bikes. Either way I’m almost to the point at my age( which I’ve stated in previous videos) where I’m considering building another bike. Watching the videos y’all make gets me pumped. I’m ready to come up there and ride with y’all. I wasn’t ever on a pro level but was still a good street rider. Maybe I should get in shape and Matt and I should go head to head on the street, but you calling all shots. I absolutely loved yesterday’s videos where Matt and Vinny were recreating your game of bike against Cory from back in the day. I can’t lie you inspired me a lot when I was young and now watching Matt progress has me pumped, wanting to come out of retirement lol.

a noooice explanation of tire setups, like size of the tire what they suited or best for and pressures for the types of obstacles i think tires is the most under rates part of the bike which is the main part the separates the riding from the ground

depends. if a more expensive bike or bike with the parts u want make you ride more, you will become better. if you trust your bike to do wild drops and not brake, you will do more stunts with confidence. so yes it might make you better.

I remember having the most basic Haro Backtrail and beating the piss out of it. The guy that used to always be on the trails would take any bike and hit the huge sets. He could do it on a $300 bike or $2000 bike. Obviously over time, superior parts will hold up. But anyone can jump on any bike and shred.

I can smell this video. Also it doesn't matter what you bike costs. I started riding on a Walmart schwinn tj Lavin bike back in the 90s and I rode it until I cracked the frame. It wasn't meant for actual BMX riding but I landed a bunch of cool tricks on it.

The bike can make a slight difference on how well you can ride because the feel of more expensive bike just makes it feel better to ride. Especially if you go from.a department store bike to a bike shop bike

From my experience with action sports, cheaper gear makes you work harder to do tricks. Which is a good thing, because once you get good gear that makes tricks easier to do you'll be a much better rider

My first bmx bike was a 2013 kink curb before that it was only Walmart bikes. The curb is the best beginner bike imo over time I ended up bending the wheels and snapping the frame but it’s hitense steel so if you evolve so should your bike!

Youre the best Scotty. Giving one away to someone in need, while also helping the family shop by showing how completes aren't worthless. New or prospective riders: almost all of us started with completes. I'm 30, so our completes were heavy mongooses and we did what we could. Every complete bike today is better than the best custom bike when I was a kid. Don't think it's embarrassing to have a complete just cause your buddies have customs. Save your money, buy what feels good, have fun. Complete bikes are still fine. You won't be beating the bike to the point where you need the custom stuff until you are flying and landing huge things. Get a complete, learn, have fun, worry about the rest later. That's what it's all about. You living and experiencing life in all it's wonder, that's what matters. If you have the newest pivotal seat post never will matter.

Hit the the wall in 91. At 250 lbs no sidepull brakes could stop me. Lost motivation due to equipment limitations. 03 post divorce. 990's on my impulse buy specialized 415 pro made me realize that at 37 yrs old I sucked. That bike in 91 would have made me a bmx god.
