Man, what a months it’s been. I ordered this Stolen and got it mid-August because had some car trouble and decided my commute was short enough to ride. After feeling demoralized by the selection of normie bikes, I took a chance on BMX again after giving it up for skating (aka: getting scared out of it as a 5th grader bc of a severe concussion I still feel the effects of today)
I’m 29 now and god damn.. it’s just as fun as it was when I was a kid. I feel really grateful that *most* of my skills are still around. I can’t believe how far bikes have come, 10 year old me never imagined in his wildest dreams a bike could be 23lbs and still be strong. IDK if anybody remembers those boat anchor Yellow X-Games bikes, but that’s what did me in all those years ago. That being said, I’m gonna take it easy, and this time I’ll refrain from finding out the hard way which dirt jumps are beyond my skill level 🤣💀

I should add: these photos are from delivery day, I don’t have the reflectors anymore. Also sorry for the angles, I was really never deep into the BMX scene so I’m “new” to the foul of not showing off the sprocket side. I think the bar pad is staying. I’m a sucker for tastefully corny accessory gimmicks, especially ones that remind me of childhood.
