Having admitted to myself that I was never going to get on with a 20" BMX (on account of being 6'4" and 16.5st), I went and put this together for arsing aboot. Keewee Stealth 4130 frame (£70 on sale), and some parts stolen from the underused FS, hey presto, adult sized BMX.
Yes,I know the steerer is long, but if I cut it, it won't go back into my enduro, same for the rear brake hose.
looks fun
how's the weather??
Well Ton, let's just say that the tyre of choice is the Small Block Eight...
we got flooded yesterday
swampthings!!!!!!
Didn't know Keewee were still going, must look them up.
[Bemused]How can you say that is an adult sized BMX?[/Bemused]
The only think similar to a BMX other than it is a bike is the fact its a singlespeed
Sorry to offend the BMX purists :-), however, this I can actaully ride without fear of going right over the bars!
i really like that frame... where did you get it from?
With a saddle at that angle, where do you put your privates?
mahoosive forks for a bike like that!
wind then down, and while your at it...sort that seat angel out soldier!

Its nothing like a BMX
Its much more like a too tall Dirt Jump/4X/Street Bike
Wind the works down, put the seatpost down (you're not supposed to sit on the saddle), and get the stem lower (and ideally shorter)
A Quote from the Keewee website...
The Stealth has been designed to take a 100 to 150mm single crown fork
Leave the forks where they are mate, I'm sure they'll be great on it...
Seatpost down and shorter stem though would definitely improve it lots.
Oh, and nowt like a BMX indeed, but looks a hell of a lot of fun...
