The Bike Shop / Anyone have experience with Fly completes?

« on: May 01, 2018, 12:43:03 AM »

I've been out of bmx for the past few years and my old as shit bike feels bad. I'm considering buying a complete rather than part one together. I was looking at the Kink Whip XL and Cult Devotion, but then saw the Fly Proton, Sion, and Orion and thought they looked great. Any thoughts, advice, and opinions are greatly appreciated.

It's looking like I got screwed over again this year...
Anyone else receive anything?

I've taken 11 Greyhound buses thousands of miles, and in my experience nobody gives a fuck about anyone or anything.

Use a hammer. I've beaten wrenches with a rubber mallet a few times to loosen stuck bolts.

I'm picky about little shit so i emailed T1. Joe Rich is an awesome guy and is sorting it out for me.  Can't say enough good things about the high level of customer service i received.

I'm running a Dirt Harry lever- Odyssey Slic cable-Odyssey hanger- Odyssey Springfield brakes- Odyssey Ghost pads. Everything is new.  They slip and squeal so fucking loud, and will not lock up. What am i doing wrong?

I got my Barcode today after preordering it 5 months ago. When i tilt the frame, it sounds like sand in the seat or chain stays, both of which are closed so it can't come out. What the fuck?
