This is the greatest bmx rider hijack ever. BMW BMXER... Hickerson is a true bad ass. Something about going up a 12 stair handrail and tailwhipping out either direction is just not right. He seriously has no natural side. left foot or right foot forward. I makes no difference. Every time he come down to CA from Texas he says at my friends' house.

BTW, how heavy are the bikes you guys are riding now? I got mine down to 26lbs even.

Odyssey hubs esp the cassett are junk. IMO
i had a batch of one of the first set of the rear hubs.

junk....
it was so sad.

My first gen ody 48h Cassette Hub was probably one of the best hubs I ever bought. Lasted me 4 solid years. But it was sooooo heavy. I still have it but its in my parts bin.

My bikes like 34lbs, still pretty heavy but my SOB before it was a damn tank.

Ya I read about how hickerson switches his feet and rotation all the time. Bastard thats hard.

[moatilliatta]

i used to do it back in the day and didnt noticed it. kids would laugh at it.

[TerribleONE]

yea i tried doing the whole switching feet thing but then it didnt work too well so i just stuck to RFFFTW!!

my bike is 30lbs. flat.. thats the lowest i could get it. im cool with it though, as long as i have my 19in. top tube.
