So you .... you... wait, WHAT? This post is so convoluted, I can't really understand what you are saying. I am not really a grammar nazi, but when it makes the post difficult to understand, I think you may be onto something.

 

i have no clue whats going on right now guys

 

long time no see chris :bang:

 

No, this is how he talks too.

Yeah Chris, I'd love to give it a shot.

 

for you peeps that dont no me.....im here to MANGLE the kings ING glish.....

uh i forgot to menshun that these bikes are 20 inch frames,slick tires,no cranks.pegs on the rear axle,turned over bars. like road race style motorcycles. k?

 

My brain just popped decoding that.:bang:

 

wat?

I have no idea what is going on in this thread.

I like going downhill? Maybe that will make sense.

 

ok you got my attention now, sounds like fun, full leathers ?
pics??


research , thanks something to add to my want to do list

 

jason, sorry to hear about your brain. yes ricky THATS what im talking about. you dont need full leathers. i had a 661 suit,dickies shorts,my nee/shin gaurds and my d/h helmet. you dont need alot to get started in this.

 

if i can find a beater 20" around Ill build one just for kicks, ill check my neighbors he has every old bike in the neighborhood in his backyard

 

in the old days

back when these started or not so long ago TOMMY BRAKENS, use to use a full suspention cheepo from walmart/target brand. my bike is an old cheeta with a banana seat and flipped bars.that wood be the stock class/un mod. his wood be the suspension class. lots-o-fun

 

what type of bars are you flipping ? bmx bars? I was thinking of using a normal bmx type bike, with a 100mm mtb stem upside down to stretch it out and some mountain bars. Sounds like a fun inexpensive project , weld on some rear sets and head up the montain

 

You can seriously die doing this on public roads.

Seriously consider the repercussions and try to keep yourself off the Darwin awards eligibility list.

If you can't read or understand the words with more than 4 sylables: Go for it doood!! Have Fun!! Do it before you has kids

 

i have some hills by my house that are public but not busy that would be fun, Ive luge'd a little bit at least these kind of have brakes
and for any real roads with cars etc you nead a spotter

I will have one built in a week or two to play on

 

downhill + fast = fun. how much do tho things cost?

 

cheap
old beater bmx bike
take off cranks
flip the frame, forks bars,
weld on a new seat or fab something up
go downhill fast
im trying to find a good candidate for mine right now then maybe we should have a ride

 

buy an old bmx frame off of disco for cheap

 

lookin for a beater complete so can use the wheels, also needs to be 1 1/8 for me to use the handlebar setup im planning on

 

You can hit some seriouse speeds on GPV bikes! I use to do this back in the late 80's, good times. Any old cheap BMX bike will work, nothing fancy needed for this. I think I had some old Schwinn Predator frame with mag wheels and a big ol bannan seat. I could never get past the low 50 mph mark, always chickened out and started to break. But my neighbor got into the 70's, flying!!! The old beater car we had was stuggling to keep up and clock him...LOL He also blew a tire once, not at 70 mph. But it was fast enough to really mess him up. We use to go to the top of Palm Springs Aerial Tram road and race down to HWY 111. Shuttle back and forth. Ahhhh, to be a teen again!
