Dope collection Bernie and Kevin! I like that 26 inch HUTCH bike, that Bernie has! And my favorite is the supercross chrome from Kevin's bike collection!👊😀
Hey gents, my buddy and I came across your channel a month or 2 ago. After the 1st video that I saw I purchased the Monza 26” for myself, 2 SE bikes (29” Big Ripper and 26” Blocks Flyer) & a Throne (29” Pac-Man) for a few of my adult kids. But, I’ve been shopping around and couldn’t figure out a 29” for myself until this latest video. During your video I pulled the trigger on the 29”+ SE Monster Quad while you introduced yours. Thanks for keeping me entertained and re-introducing me to BMX & Big Bike BMX’s. It’s wheelie time!
Thatʻs awesome to hear man! Iʻm stoked you got back into BMX again! You have quite the collection too! I think youʻre gonna love that Monster Quad. Itʻs one of my favorite bikes! Thanks for taking the time to share that with us and for watching! 🤙🏻
Same boat guys. After the early to mid 80's BMX days (Rode a Blue '83 Mongoose) I spent decades looking for a similar experience on high dollar mountain bikes, and clunky beach cruisers until I bought my first OM Flyer in 2008 and then all of the dots somehow reconnected. Now my garage is full of them.
I like your vids. I grew up in the 70’s and 80’s. I had a 20” race inc. and I also had that exact 24” hutch in got in 83 I think. Loved em both. I owned many bikes but never could get my hands on a DG. Mom couldn’t afford it. Thanks for sharing.
This guy named Johnny TrueTorch makes replica frames like the DG so if you want to build a bigger replica, you can! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
DEFINITELY PASSION.....YOU GUYS HAVE ONE OF THE SICKEST COLLECTIONS I'VE SEEN. I REMEMBER YOU GUYS AT THE BEGINNING OF YOUR JOURNEY, YOU'VE COME A LONG WAY, AND THE ATTENTION TO DETAIL IS AWESOME. YOU COULD DEFINITELY PUT SOME OF THOSE BIKES IN COMPETITION SHOWS. THE 26 RACE INC, BLUE AND WHITE IS MY FAVORITE. MY 2ND FAV IS BERNIES 26 HUTCH. 🔥 MY FIRST BMX BIKE WAS A HUTCH. THAT WAS IN 1987. IM 46 YRS OLD NOW. I JUST FINISHED MY CUSTOM SE BIG RIPPER D BLOCKS SNOW CAMO BUILD. ONLY STOCK PARTS ARE THE FRAME AND BARS. YOU 2 GAVE ME THE MOTIVATION TO ACTUALLY GO THROUGH WITH IT. BIG THANKS TO YOU BOTH. LOOKING TO BUY MY NEXT BIKE RIGHT NOW. LOOKING FOR A SKYWAY TO BRING HOME. HARD TO FIND. I REGRET NOT PULLIN THE TRIGGA ON THE MONZA. SMH. KICKIN MYSELF IN THE A FOR NOT DOIN IT. WELL MUCH RESPECT TO YOU GUYS FROM THE EAST COAST. BOSTON MA. KEEP DOIN UR THANG GUYS. 🙏💪🏻💯
I just turned 50 was a flatland guy back in the day ..ordered a 29 ..going to ride again..im in Indiana. The hard part thear isn't many who share the passion anymore in my area..
Yeah, laying them all out like that really made us kinda do a double take on just how many bikes we both have. And we still have three more bikes coming up to build! Thanks for sharing your comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
Iʻm not familiar with the American Eagle. Those bars though! A lot of us had them back in the day! Love that we can still get them now! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
I still have my bmx racebike from the 80s...Stu "The Man" Thomsen was my racing hero back in the day, however the Redline Pro-Lines were pricey back then in Australia. So I never had one when racing, so I used an Australian bike brand at the time. Six years ago, I got my very own pair of Red line Pro-Lines in 20in and 24in sizes. On my recent 60th birthday, I got myself a set of Skyway graphite tuffs in both 20/24in sizes for my Redlines...at last I had the wheels I lusted for, after waiting nearly 40 years. Tuffs wheels were my favorite wheels as I was a mad jumper, spoke wheels were never my fave wheelset as I hated wheel truing. Great collection guys, you both are proud to own your fleet of bikes.
Hey guys , it was great to see all the bikes that have been built by the “ brochanics “ lol …I wanted to comment on the last Monza you were asking about those grips and I thought they were reminiscent to “ Oakley “ grips , although the oakleys were more pronounced and really uncomfortable… anyway that is what those reminded me of ? I have to say the Race inc. is my favorite…and I would say a little bit of both…thanks for the fun keep em coming…I look forward to seeing the GT build…
I’d say it’s a passion! Just found your channel. It’s pretty cool how well you both get along and how much fun you have together. Very cool to have a good friend to share your hobby with!
I think I can speak for Bernie when I say that we both feel incredibly blessed to be able to do what weʻre doing, enjoying just working on bikes and hanging out! Weʻre stoked that others are enjoying it too! Thank you so much for taking the time to share that and for being a new sub! 🤙🏻
Great videos. You guys are great. Like the guys I hung out with back in the day. I just thought it was me that was liking this stuff again. Building Mongoose Californian 1985. Next I’m going with the 24 or 26 Race Inc. love Bernie’s Brake levers and chrome cables. Such nice bikes. Love the videos of you guys riding. Takes me back bro’s. Mahalo.
What a collection! Not sure if you already did but on all those Stems with the bolts on the bottom, I'd suggest some Blue Loc Tite. If the bolts come loose on a ride, the bottom set up will just drop. Still loving the Bro-chanix kids! Can't wait to see the GT and Hutch get built! Mahalo for making vids that hit our Beneration and Beyond.
Great suggestion as if they ever come loose, those bolts are gonna fall out and weʻd never know! Thanks for sharing that and for watching another one! 🤙🏻
I had a Silver Streak too back in middle school. Loved that bike! I also taught near that bike trail when I first started teaching. Iʻd take my MTB on it after work. Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
Putting them all in one place was a little eye opening for even us! My wife just shook her head after she counted them all. And we still have three more builds coming! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
You should!! See if you can find a local bike shop to try one out to see which size you like the best and just get back on one! There are a lot of bikes out there to choose from! Thanks for the comment and for watching!! 🤙🏼
i allways get the same parts for my bikes... shimano DXR cranks ,shimano DXR brakes, profile elite hubs, rennen chainring, supercross , or crupi half link chain, s&m or crupi pivitol seatpost, supercross , profile, or s&m pivitol seat, s&m bars, odi ruffian lock on grips, s&m , or profile stem, box , or deviant/runway rims, hutch , crupi , or bullseye pedals, tigoa powerblock , kenda smallblock folding, or IRC siten tires, salsa seat clamp, supercross , or haro headset... some parts are getting harder to find. like everything you have to keep up on whats good and grab it as soon as you can because you never know when they disappear for good.
The bars on the Supercross are hit or miss.....some people love ʻem and some hate ʻem. I like them because they are bent like the old school style but are different. Thanks for the comment and for watching!
Very cool! I do remember being in the same situation, the Hutch was out of my price range when they were fresh in the marketplace. Today, I ride an RSD Middlechild. The frame is 4130, with sliding dropouts for the singlespeed greatness. BMXy as the day is long, with a classic vibe. That RaceInc is also of classic BMX goodness.
I'd really like to snag up one of those monza 24 inch and I really like the look of the skyway TA 24 as well. Nice collection it cool that you ride them.
Nice collection. Like all the bike. Much detail. Who sells those tall CW style bars? I like the skyway bars, I think the CW will be different for this mountain bike I’m converting to BMX. Thank you. Great videos.
Thanks man! I want to say Bernie got them either on eBay or from Porkchop or BMX Guru. The CW bars really do make a statement. Thanks for the comment and for watching!! 🤙🏼
Hey, I'm having a problem with my 24 skyways having a little wheel hop, they're brand new, place I got them from said to take air out of the tires for a few days and see if it went away when you air them up again, still have the back wheel hop. Was wondering if your monza 24 had any wheel hop on the skyways?
Sorry man, you're gonna have to explain to me what wheel hop is. I never rode Skyways back in the day so I'm not sure what wheel hop is. I don't recall Bernie saying anything about any issue with the mags when he rode the Monza 24" in Texas on that big ride out. Let me know what this means and I'll ask Bernie. Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
@@cruisinginthe808 back tire has rough time seating itself in the tuff wheels, talking to a lot of others who have same problem, after days and days of trying to solve this, I gave up. Not going through this every time I change tires or get a flat. Had bmx guru build me some custom alloy wheels 😍, on better note got same bike repair stand that you have for my bday, 👍
They all came out super nice. My favorite is the hutch, I m a chrome guy myself, when I was young and raced I had a b and b made by profile, looked just like a hutch
Hard to beat a nice chrome frame and fork if you could afford one back in the day. I have never heard of the A and B before. Thanks for sharing that and for watching!
Thanks for the details on your builds. Can you share who did the decals for the Supercross please? I have an aluminum one and plan to do new ones for it.
Try and look up Rebel Art Design on IG. I believe he made my set for me. Another guy I used for other builds is called Juragan Decals. A new sticker kit in the colors you want just completes the bike. Good luck man and keep us posted! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏼
i had seen some of your videos and had wondered how many bikes you guys had. im still learnnig of the shops and the many brands available. your bikes look really nice. do you think its better to buy just frame and fork and build it the way you want or buy a standard bike and customize it. the video really helped because otherwise you have to ask what part is that or who made it.
Building a bike to what you want is definitely more fun and you can make it just how you want it. But itʻs going to be more expensive for sure to pick up the parts separately. For example, getting a complete Monza is like $695 right now and it comes with parts you can use right out of the box. Itʻs a good place to start because you can ride right away and then slowly swap out the parts you want to improve or change the colors on. If you have the time to pick up parts separately, do that. But if you want to keep costs down, pick up a complete bike and then slowlly change out the parts. I hope this helps! Thanks for the comment and for watching! I am sorry it took so long for me to respond.
@@cruisinginthe808 thanks for the tips. the monza does have some nice pieces on it. some of the colorways on certain bikes just not my style. i did like the yellow gt frame you are building now. just subscribed.
Nice you both finally had time to get the herd together! A couple more and you both will overtake me. 🤣 I don't really have a favorite of your bikes because they all have their own different characteristics and that's how I like it. So you could say all is my choice. LOL!
I really like how they are different. To me it matches the different back triangle of the frame. Yeah, the color is kinda deep so it looks more black than purple. Thanks for taking the time to share that and for watching!! 🤙🏻
We had every intention of going to that show on Oahu, but unfortunately we’ll be in California for DirtyFest, another bike show/race. We were super bummed about not being able to go! I wanted to bring my Skyway. Thanks for the suggestion and for watching! 🤙🏼
Of all the bikes you guys have built, which of the 26"ers would you recommend for bunny hopping, wheelies, front wheel stands, 180's and general street freestyle and loading dock jumping, and just generally acting like I'm 17 yrs old. Is there hope for freestyle fun at fifty or is it just a nostalgic dream on a pretty bmx looking cruiser? Pipe dream (half pide dream), or airborne reality?
Do you watch any of Isaac’s videos over on his Big Bike BMX channel? He is a guy our age who used to freestyle a lot and he ended up on the Supercross and has been doing a bunch of flatland stuff lately. He really likes that frame for riding and for doing some tricks! Hope this helps!! 🤙🏼
After seeing the video. Caught the part with the levers on the Race. Those are nice. Definitely am going with the 26 Race Inc. always wanted a Race Inc when I was young. Way too much. Will use those levers and Bernie’s chrome cable. Those Billet peddles are so cool. Awesome video.
Hope to cruise one day in the 503 with you. Would be so cool. Maybe if at a meet up somewhere would be great to shake hands and say hi/mahalo. You guys are great. If you and Bernie started a bike shop/sourcing/bike rent business for Hawaii it could work. Give people a place to meet up. Renting a Race Inc or a GT to Cruz on vacation with family in Hawaii would be epic. You guys are getting known. At least to bike people for sure. Love the easy going videos and the technical is on point. Talking about the parts and the thinking behind why purchased is bomb. My next build will be a Race Inc 26. Then GT. But will need to powder coat like you did. Peace.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share that with us! Really keeps us motivate to keep producing more videos so thank you!! If you ever make it out to Kauai, just hit us up and you can ride one of the bikes! Appreciate the kind words and for watching our videos!! 🤙🏼
Most mine are 20inch with laid back post(I'm 6ft tall)My fav ride is 1994 Elf 24inch with white skyways and a 1986 CW Racing Flyer 20" but for some reason is roomy for a 20" I have ACS Z rims on it
I love the cw bars, you guys get me excited about riding as soon as I put your channel on. I already and have been into riding for 4 decades plus I still get kicked up a notch or two with how you guys are so into it. I know what's it like to ride a hutch. I had a 20 inch judge 2. I have a 24 inch dk general lee right now. All your bikes are put together top notch I think. Hey what do you think about these choices on bikes. Vdc, boss, badd, jag, patterson,national pro ,tnt , free agent. Elf. Jmc. Gjs. Torker. Redline. If you guys to do some builds on those would be awesome.
Thanks for sharing that! Appreciate those kind words! Those are some old school names of bikes!!! I don’t recall anyone around me having a GJS but I remember seeing them in magazines. Bernie and I only build bikes we can ride comfortably and so we’d have to find like a 24, 26, or 29 inch frames. Those are hard to come by in those older models. But we’ll keep our eyes open! You never know when something like the Hutch will come along! Thanks for the comment and for watching!! 🤙🏼
I am building a Mongoose Californian 1985 right now. I have a nice pair of pro class rims. I was having problems finding the color strips that wrap the rims, so I bought from Amazon this blue aluminum looking tape. There might be a better product to use, but the color was exactly what looked best. Installed under rubber rim wrap and looks great.
That’s awesome!! How did you find those Pro Class rims? Bernie wants to build a JTT Mongoose like he had back in the day and would love to get a set of Pro Class wheels. I bought a set of similar repops from Peddlepower BMX and the holes are far from the rim tape. They aren’t like the Pro Class rims. Glad you found something to make it work! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏼
Man, you guys are making my wallet hurt. The Race Inc is amazing. I just went to Planet and they have the same sale going on, right now. Just grabbed it for $349 free shipping, but I’m in Northern California. I think I’m going to do some of the same parts. TNT revolver hubs for sure. I have 4 sets of Bullseye pedals just hanging out. I have a white set of Elite Platform bullseye that I was going to use on my white planet 24” T/A build, but I think they’re going to go on this. I like the white crank idea. I have 3 sets of chrome flights waiting to go on bikes, but I like the idea of the white. May do Bullseye, though. I also have a White 29” City Grounds Big Ripper, their Chrome Big Ripper, a 2017 mint Haro Master and a 20” Master Zolatone. I’m also starting to switch parts out on my Miami blue 29 Josh White World Tour. Just started wrenching on my Hazard Yellow RL20ii repop. You guys definitely got me excited to start putting these bikes together. I was in the 6th grade when I saw Rad in the theater, and although, I’d been riding for a while, that movie made all of the BMX Actions magazines I had, come to life. Thanks again!
I've watched this particular video about six times just because I love seeing all the project bikes and what you've done different with each one plus it gives me a little insight on what components are good ones like the infamous Paul brake levers.💥 You've mentioned that on the Super Cross bike, the Paul brakes seem to stick out farther at the top. Does the rear triangle on the Super Cross seem narrower than your other bikes where the brake mounts attach or is it just a characteristic of the Paul brake arms? After all the Super Cross does have a unique rear triangle.
The Paulʻs are shallow where the brake pads are bolted on to the calipers. So you really need a brake pad with a very shallow pad. Even moving the spacers out on the other side of the caliper mount helps but not enough. The levers are fire but Iʻm not a fan of the calipers. Thanks for the comment and for watching! Sorry it took me so long to respond!
That Hutch must shine like a diamond in the sun. I like the internal cable routing on the Race Inc., the white spokes are fancy. I think the custom Monza 26" is my favorite. Where are the Mag Wheels? Too heavy?
The mag wheels we showed a few videos ago are for the GT build coming up. Iʻm waiting on the powder coater to finish it and weʻll begin putting it together. Thanks man! 🤙🏻
I'm kinda into orange so purchased an orange and black cannondale trail 3 mountain bike and I have a verde vario 650b cruiser that I found marked down 50% that too was orange.
Springs inside the headset? Wow, that's a new one for me. I've never heard of that, nor can I conceive what a spring would be for. Would you be able to direct me somewhere online that I might look into this? You've got me wondering what I might be missing out on.🚴♀
The old school grips on the Monza 24" were 1st generation Oakley Grips. And yes they did stink. To bulky, and the knock-offs were always make of plastic rather than rubber.
Right? They are gonna be killer when they come out because you can buy different sleeves to really mix and match the colors. Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏼
I actually have two 20ʻs but I didnʻt bring them out. One is my sonʻs bike from back in the day and one is a gift from a friend. Iʻll have to bring them out sometime later.
IF it motivates you to ride often, what's wrong with having healthy obsessions? Which one is your favorite though? What frame rides best so-far? -Sorry if you cover this... typing in comments while watching.
Great comment and I agree with you 100%! Riding is a great way to stay active and anytime you can get together with friends, itʻs always good for your mental health. I really like the Supercross, Race Inc, and the Monster Quad. Those are my favorite bikes to ride. The Skyway is another favorite because I built most of it and and it came out really well. Thanks for taking the time to share that comment with us and for watching! 🤙🏻
HAVE YOU GUYS NOTICED THE BENT SEAT POST MAKES THE FRONT WHEEL TOO LIGHT , I CANNED OFF ON THE SHINGLE ROAD AND F&@CKED UP MY HAND PRETTY GOOD LOL , OR WAS IT MY 20 " SKATE PARK TIRES ? ANY THORTS ?
The bent seat post does place you further back on the bike and so is your center of gravity. Makes sense that it might be easier to flip back when trying to do a wheelie. Try and sit up on the seat, closer to the bars. You might just have to play around with your seat to see where is a good balance point. Good luck man!
Weʻve tried all sorts of things to give that caliper more space and nothing weʻve found makes a difference. Not sure if we tried scooting the rear wheel more inward though so we can try that next. Thanks for the suggestion and for watching!
Agreed! Bernie is as cool as ice! He is Filipino. Iʻm too white to be Filipino! Haha! But I do have Asian blood....half Japanese and half Irish. Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
For sure. It’s still a little of money but so what. I realize I have always liked these Uber cool bike, just couldn’t afford when younger and life happened. Bmx is super rad. Can go tough look or super pimp. I look really clean and shiny.
All you have is new school bikes. No old school bikes?? I collected for 20yrs and had around 30 bikes. I only kept 4 now and am pretty happy. 85 pk, 83 24” raceinc, 2000 20”&24 “ ub . I do kinda miss my 24” technique. The hanebrink forks made it look different. Dan is a really cool guy and made a unique fork.
I don’t remember what happened to my Mongoose, I sold my Diamond Back Silver Streak to buy my Kuwahara Laser Lite, and then my mom sold it while I was in college for $50. Oh man, how I wished I still had them! So yeah we only have new school bikes. And we only buy bikes we can now ride as adults. Thanks for the comment and for watching!!🤙🏼
@@cruisinginthe808 I understand. I still fit on my 20” 2000 gt ultrabox. My 24” ultrabox is still in a box for that reason. 20” bikes just rip with a 45/15. I may build a 26”. Bmx bike. unfortunately, I can’t put a 44 or 45 tooth sprocket on the front of 26” size frames. I use to race velodrome and like big gearing.
Had a mighty goose and a ammaco 202 when I was a kid broke all the local records on that might goose that bike was the nuts thinking of getting an adult BMX and looking at s.e bikes p k ribber or big ripper?
What size bike do you think you’d want? Have you had a chance to ride any yet? The 24 is the closest to what we knew back as a kid. It’s smaller and much easier to handle. The bigger you go up from there adds stability but you then have a harder time to rip it up on a track or jumps. Not sure what you want to ride this for. If you’re just looking to cruise around any of the SE bikes are good. Same with the Monzas that just came out with a 27.5 they have as a pre-order right now. My best advice is to see if you can get to a local bike shop to jump on a few to see what you like the best. Good luck man and keep us posted on what you decide to get! 🤙🏼
obsession or passion . very obsession require some degree of passion . maybe it neither . maybe you just like to collect bikes and so what . Just enjoy .
i love the race inc the best . only thing i dont like about is the HUGE american BB , but i think that could be worked around . most frames allways got 1 thing i dont like aboit it. lol
I actually wanted that so I could use the Knight Bike UFO BB. But I hear ya, itʻs hard to get something that everyone likes. Appreciate the comment though and for watching!
they make up to a 29 inch mag wheels ...not skyways unfortunately .....but they do make em.....the quad angle is beautiful & would look sick with a set of black mags
They make metal mags in that size but not in that plastic like the Tuff Wheels. They still look pretty good though! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
Weʻve come across a lot of guys still riding 20s so you are not alone. Even on some long rides weʻve seen some adults on 20s so there are still guys like you out there! For me, the 20 is too small. I like to have some room and just cruise. But hey, you do what feels good for you! Thanks for sharing that comment and for watching!
Im 55 years old...no matter what you may call it obsession or passion. As long as i have a bmx bike with me.... Makes my day brighter,.... Active
Dope collection Bernie and Kevin! I like that 26 inch HUTCH bike, that Bernie has! And my favorite is the supercross chrome from Kevin's bike collection!👊😀

I’m a chrome frame guy but the blue and red skyway is my favorite !
Mine too!!
Thanks man! The Skyway came out really nice! Appreciate the feedback and you guys watching! 🤙🏻
I just turned 50 was a flatland guy back in the day ..ordered a 29 ..going to ride again..im in Indiana. The hard part thear isn't many who share the passion anymore in my area..
Supercross, love the blue & purple. Between all the bikes from you two, you can have your own bike meet/show
Yeah, laying them all out like that really made us kinda do a double take on just how many bikes we both have. And we still have three more bikes coming up to build! Thanks for sharing your comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
That hutch looks just like the American eagle I got in 1983 & I got those handle bars awww man imma get one. I love this
Iʻm not familiar with the American Eagle. Those bars though! A lot of us had them back in the day! Love that we can still get them now! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
All beautiful bikes sirs! That Race Inc. is da one brada! Made me jealous and brought back the fire in me. Thank You for that.🙂👌
Haha! Thanks man! Hey, anything to get you back into it we'll take! Let's goooo! 🤙🏻

You are right! Itʻs both! Thanks for taking the time to comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
I’d say it’s a passion! Just found your channel. It’s pretty cool how well you both get along and how much fun you have together. Very cool to have a good friend to share your hobby with!
I think I can speak for Bernie when I say that we both feel incredibly blessed to be able to do what weʻre doing, enjoying just working on bikes and hanging out! Weʻre stoked that others are enjoying it too! Thank you so much for taking the time to share that and for being a new sub! 🤙🏻
Good thing y’all did this video and caught a couple things
Great videos. You guys are great. Like the guys I hung out with back in the day. I just thought it was me that was liking this stuff again. Building Mongoose Californian 1985. Next I’m going with the 24 or 26 Race Inc. love Bernie’s Brake levers and chrome cables. Such nice bikes. Love the videos of you guys riding. Takes me back bro’s. Mahalo.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share that comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
What a collection! Not sure if you already did but on all those Stems with the bolts on the bottom, I'd suggest some Blue Loc Tite. If the bolts come loose on a ride, the bottom set up will just drop. Still loving the Bro-chanix kids! Can't wait to see the GT and Hutch get built! Mahalo for making vids that hit our Beneration and Beyond.
Great suggestion as if they ever come loose, those bolts are gonna fall out and weʻd never know! Thanks for sharing that and for watching another one! 🤙🏻
I believe Tange has always made those grips on the Monza. I thank they also made the old school Hutch grips that look pretty similar.
Nice collection definitely very hard to pick just one. But I like the race inc bike came out super clean.
It did thanks to those killer Billet BMX parts! Appreciate you my friend! 🤙🏼
I miss riding in Hawaii paved trail around Pearl Harbor,from Catlin Park,When I lived there I rode a 1984 PK Ripper and a 83 Silver Streak DB
I had a Silver Streak too back in middle school. Loved that bike! I also taught near that bike trail when I first started teaching. Iʻd take my MTB on it after work. Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
You guys got a bike convention going on the details on your builds are next level💯
Putting them all in one place was a little eye opening for even us! My wife just shook her head after she counted them all. And we still have three more builds coming! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
It's nostalgia all the way and as a 51 year old man it makes me want to go get one :D
You should!! See if you can find a local bike shop to try one out to see which size you like the best and just get back on one! There are a lot of bikes out there to choose from! Thanks for the comment and for watching!! 🤙🏼
@@cruisinginthe808 Ordering one soon, only £300 !!! :D

For my next set of bike tires I want Goodyear wing for with gum wall. Also interested in some Michelin pilot tires
Great vid as always ! What are the tires on the 26” hutch shown first ? Thanks
As always, great content, fun video great Bikes obsession I think it’s a lifestyle
Thanks man! Appreciate you tuning in each week! Yep, maybe itʻs an obsessive, passionate lifestyle! 🤙🏻
Love the Super Cross but the bars. The Skyway is awesome
The bars on the Supercross are hit or miss.....some people love ʻem and some hate ʻem. I like them because they are bent like the old school style but are different. Thanks for the comment and for watching!
Very cool! I do remember being in the same situation, the Hutch was out of my price range when they were fresh in the marketplace. Today, I ride an RSD Middlechild. The frame is 4130, with sliding dropouts for the singlespeed greatness. BMXy as the day is long, with a classic vibe. That RaceInc is also of classic BMX goodness.
Glad youʻre still riding! Thanks for taking the time to comment and for watching the video! 🤙🏻
I'd really like to snag up one of those monza 24 inch and I really like the look of the skyway TA 24 as well. Nice collection it cool that you ride them.
Thanks man! Monza has a pre-sale going on now with their 24s if you are interested. Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
Nice collection. Like all the bike. Much detail. Who sells those tall CW style bars? I like the skyway bars, I think the CW will be different for this mountain bike I’m converting to BMX. Thank you. Great videos.
Thanks man! I want to say Bernie got them either on eBay or from Porkchop or BMX Guru. The CW bars really do make a statement. Thanks for the comment and for watching!! 🤙🏼
Hey, I'm having a problem with my 24 skyways having a little wheel hop, they're brand new, place I got them from said to take air out of the tires for a few days and see if it went away when you air them up again, still have the back wheel hop. Was wondering if your monza 24 had any wheel hop on the skyways?
Sorry man, you're gonna have to explain to me what wheel hop is. I never rode Skyways back in the day so I'm not sure what wheel hop is. I don't recall Bernie saying anything about any issue with the mags when he rode the Monza 24" in Texas on that big ride out. Let me know what this means and I'll ask Bernie. Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
@@cruisinginthe808 back tire has rough time seating itself in the tuff wheels, talking to a lot of others who have same problem, after days and days of trying to solve this, I gave up. Not going through this every time I change tires or get a flat. Had bmx guru build me some custom alloy wheels 😍, on better note got same bike repair stand that you have for my bday, 👍
They all came out super nice. My favorite is the hutch, I m a chrome guy myself, when I was young and raced I had a b and b made by profile, looked just like a hutch
Hard to beat a nice chrome frame and fork if you could afford one back in the day. I have never heard of the A and B before. Thanks for sharing that and for watching!
If you Google search b and b racing you can see one
That bike is so sick ❤️😮😮🤙
Its a little bit of both "passion and obsession"
My favorite bikes, Bernies Hutch. The Blue Skyway and the white Race Inc!
I’d have to agree with you on that. I think it’s a little bit of both myself! Thanks for the comment and for watching!! 🤙🏼
Thanks for the details on your builds. Can you share who did the decals for the Supercross please? I have an aluminum one and plan to do new ones for it.
Try and look up Rebel Art Design on IG. I believe he made my set for me. Another guy I used for other builds is called Juragan Decals. A new sticker kit in the colors you want just completes the bike. Good luck man and keep us posted! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏼
Will do and thanks. Maybe see you guys if you come out to Austin again!@@cruisinginthe808
i had seen some of your videos and had wondered how many bikes you guys had. im still learnnig of the shops and the many brands available. your bikes look really nice. do you think its better to buy just frame and fork and build it the way you want or buy a standard bike and customize it. the video really helped because otherwise you have to ask what part is that or who made it.
Building a bike to what you want is definitely more fun and you can make it just how you want it. But itʻs going to be more expensive for sure to pick up the parts separately. For example, getting a complete Monza is like $695 right now and it comes with parts you can use right out of the box. Itʻs a good place to start because you can ride right away and then slowly swap out the parts you want to improve or change the colors on. If you have the time to pick up parts separately, do that. But if you want to keep costs down, pick up a complete bike and then slowlly change out the parts. I hope this helps! Thanks for the comment and for watching! I am sorry it took so long for me to respond.
@@cruisinginthe808 thanks for the tips. the monza does have some nice pieces on it. some of the colorways on certain bikes just not my style. i did like the yellow gt frame you are building now. just subscribed.
Nice you both finally had time to get the herd together! A couple more and you both will overtake me. 🤣 I don't really have a favorite of your bikes because they all have their own different characteristics and that's how I like it. So you could say all is my choice. LOL!
Thanks man!! Appreciate that!! Thanks for tuning in to another one!! 🤙🏼
I like the race inc blue one the best
I love those bars on the Supercross!! Maybe if they were a little lighter shade of purple they would even better, but still..
I really like how they are different. To me it matches the different back triangle of the frame. Yeah, the color is kinda deep so it looks more black than purple. Thanks for taking the time to share that and for watching!! 🤙🏻
Agreed they go well with the unique design of the frame
Heck yeah !!!! This is the video I’ve been waiting for !!!!
Glad you liked it! Appreciate you always tuning in each week brother! 🤙🏻
It’s both….it’s an obsessive passion
I’m gonna agree with you there!! Thanks for the comment and for watching!! 🤙🏼
Bike Show on Oahu April 13th would be great if you guys come visit, btw great video, love all the bikes
We had every intention of going to that show on Oahu, but unfortunately we’ll be in California for DirtyFest, another bike show/race. We were super bummed about not being able to go! I wanted to bring my Skyway. Thanks for the suggestion and for watching! 🤙🏼
Of all the bikes you guys have built, which of the 26"ers would you recommend for bunny hopping, wheelies, front wheel stands, 180's and general street freestyle and loading dock jumping, and just generally acting like I'm 17 yrs old. Is there hope for freestyle fun at fifty or is it just a nostalgic dream on a pretty bmx looking cruiser? Pipe dream (half pide dream), or airborne reality?
Do you watch any of Isaac’s videos over on his Big Bike BMX channel? He is a guy our age who used to freestyle a lot and he ended up on the Supercross and has been doing a bunch of flatland stuff lately. He really likes that frame for riding and for doing some tricks! Hope this helps!! 🤙🏼
Loved it!! Great video. I’d go w the super cross. Those colors wicked
Good choice! The Supercross does have some killer colors thanks to George at Knight Bike!! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏼
After seeing the video. Caught the part with the levers on the Race. Those are nice. Definitely am going with the 26 Race Inc. always wanted a Race Inc when I was young. Way too much. Will use those levers and Bernie’s chrome cable. Those Billet peddles are so cool. Awesome video.
Thanks man! Thatʻs awesome! Appreciate the comment and you watching! 🤙🏻
Hope to cruise one day in the 503 with you. Would be so cool. Maybe if at a meet up somewhere would be great to shake hands and say hi/mahalo. You guys are great. If you and Bernie started a bike shop/sourcing/bike rent business for Hawaii it could work. Give people a place to meet up. Renting a Race Inc or a GT to Cruz on vacation with family in Hawaii would be epic. You guys are getting known. At least to bike people for sure. Love the easy going videos and the technical is on point. Talking about the parts and the thinking behind why purchased is bomb. My next build will be a Race Inc 26. Then GT. But will need to powder coat like you did. Peace.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share that with us! Really keeps us motivate to keep producing more videos so thank you!! If you ever make it out to Kauai, just hit us up and you can ride one of the bikes! Appreciate the kind words and for watching our videos!! 🤙🏼
Race Inc white bike for sale ? Or your affiliate link to buy all the parts ?
Much appreciated
I actually use silicone motorcycle grips on some of my rides due to color combinations.Few my bikes have Ame
Really enjoyed this video. Passion I’d say. Life’s short. 😊
Right? Life is short so might as well enjoy it! Thanks for the comment and for watching!
Probably a little bit of both, either way, its a hell of a lot of fun!
Absolutely! Couldnʻt agree with you more! Thanks for that comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
THE COLOUR SCHEME ON THE SUPER CROSS IS RAD , YOU HAVE A GOOD EYE FOR COLOURS KEV , WELL DONE .
Thanks man! Appreciate you saying that and for watching!! 🤙🏼
My fav from Kev is the Race Inc. my fav from Bernie is the 26” hutch
Great collection
i think it's a passion. my favorite is the supercross. damn sexy bike
I really like the Supercross too. Thanks man! 🤙🏻
@@cruisinginthe808 i changed my mind, mine is an obsession. i'm up to 30
i love all of your guys bikes . 💗💗
Thank you!
Great video, I need some custom Supercross decals if you know where? Love that Skyway!
Try BMX Products. They nave all sorts of decals and I think if you contact them, they can print them using different colors. www.bmxproducts.com/
Most mine are 20inch with laid back post(I'm 6ft tall)My fav ride is 1994 Elf 24inch with white skyways and a 1986 CW Racing Flyer 20" but for some reason is roomy for a 20" I have ACS Z rims on it
I love the cw bars, you guys get me excited about riding as soon as I put your channel on. I already and have been into riding for 4 decades plus I still get kicked up a notch or two with how you guys are so into it. I know what's it like to ride a hutch. I had a 20 inch judge 2. I have a 24 inch dk general lee right now. All your bikes are put together top notch I think. Hey what do you think about these choices on bikes. Vdc, boss, badd, jag, patterson,national pro ,tnt , free agent. Elf. Jmc. Gjs. Torker. Redline. If you guys to do some builds on those would be awesome.
Thanks for sharing that! Appreciate those kind words! Those are some old school names of bikes!!! I don’t recall anyone around me having a GJS but I remember seeing them in magazines. Bernie and I only build bikes we can ride comfortably and so we’d have to find like a 24, 26, or 29 inch frames. Those are hard to come by in those older models. But we’ll keep our eyes open! You never know when something like the Hutch will come along! Thanks for the comment and for watching!! 🤙🏼
I am building a Mongoose Californian 1985 right now. I have a nice pair of pro class rims. I was having problems finding the color strips that wrap the rims, so I bought from Amazon this blue aluminum looking tape. There might be a better product to use, but the color was exactly what looked best. Installed under rubber rim wrap and looks great.
That’s awesome!! How did you find those Pro Class rims? Bernie wants to build a JTT Mongoose like he had back in the day and would love to get a set of Pro Class wheels. I bought a set of similar repops from Peddlepower BMX and the holes are far from the rim tape. They aren’t like the Pro Class rims. Glad you found something to make it work! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏼
I found the rims on EBay. $500. Kind of pricey but they where in good condition. @@cruisinginthe808
Man, you guys are making my wallet hurt. The Race Inc is amazing. I just went to Planet and they have the same sale going on, right now. Just grabbed it for $349 free shipping, but I’m in Northern California. I think I’m going to do some of the same parts. TNT revolver hubs for sure. I have 4 sets of Bullseye pedals just hanging out. I have a white set of Elite Platform bullseye that I was going to use on my white planet 24” T/A build, but I think they’re going to go on this. I like the white crank idea. I have 3 sets of chrome flights waiting to go on bikes, but I like the idea of the white. May do Bullseye, though. I also have a White 29” City Grounds Big Ripper, their Chrome Big Ripper, a 2017 mint Haro Master and a 20” Master Zolatone. I’m also starting to switch parts out on my Miami blue 29 Josh White World Tour. Just started wrenching on my Hazard Yellow RL20ii repop. You guys definitely got me excited to start putting these bikes together. I was in the 6th grade when I saw Rad in the theater, and although, I’d been riding for a while, that movie made all of the BMX Actions magazines I had, come to life. Thanks again!
Super wicked builds Bernie & kev !!!!
Thanks Charles! Can’t compare to you but we’re trying!! Thanks for watching!!🤙🏼
@@cruisinginthe808 welcome Man !!! You guys have some serious cruisers!!
I rode a quadrangle as my first bike for years, bought it with my own summer job money
Thatʻs awesome man! I had to do the same with my Diamond Back and Kuwahara! Appreciate the comment and you watching!
I've watched this particular video about six times just because I love seeing all the project bikes and what you've done different with each one plus it gives me a little insight on what components are good ones like the infamous Paul brake levers.💥 You've mentioned that on the Super Cross bike, the Paul brakes seem to stick out farther at the top. Does the rear triangle on the Super Cross seem narrower than your other bikes where the brake mounts attach or is it just a characteristic of the Paul brake arms? After all the Super Cross does have a unique rear triangle.
The Paulʻs are shallow where the brake pads are bolted on to the calipers. So you really need a brake pad with a very shallow pad. Even moving the spacers out on the other side of the caliper mount helps but not enough. The levers are fire but Iʻm not a fan of the calipers. Thanks for the comment and for watching! Sorry it took me so long to respond!
I'm torn between the Race Inc. and the customized Monza and Bernie's Hutch. When can I test ride all three?
Come to Kauai and you can ride them all! 🤙🏼
Nice bikes ! Bernie I like that hutch !
That Hutch must shine like a diamond in the sun.
I like the internal cable routing on the Race Inc., the white spokes are fancy.
I think the custom Monza 26" is my favorite.
Where are the Mag Wheels? Too heavy?
The mag wheels we showed a few videos ago are for the GT build coming up. Iʻm waiting on the powder coater to finish it and weʻll begin putting it together. Thanks man! 🤙🏻
are the wheels on your bikes considered 26 / 29 bmx or cruiser wheels.
on the chrome monza , what is the rise on the gt 4 piece bars
@@cartracer64 Itʻs around 9 inches or so. Canʻt remember exactly the size but I know itʻs a 9 or higher for sure.
I'm kinda into orange so purchased an orange and black cannondale trail 3 mountain bike and I have a verde vario 650b cruiser that I found marked down 50% that too was orange.
Nice! You gotta get what you are into right? Thanks for the comment and for watching!! 🤙🏼
The hutch headset reminds me of the old headset that had the spring inside of them
Springs inside the headset? Wow, that's a new one for me. I've never heard of that, nor can I conceive what a spring would be for. Would you be able to direct me somewhere online that I might look into this? You've got me wondering what I might be missing out on.🚴♀
The old school grips on the Monza 24" were 1st generation Oakley Grips. And yes they did stink. To bulky, and the knock-offs were always make of plastic rather than rubber.
Yeah, these arenʻt my favorite grips to use. Prefer the old school Ames! Thanks for the comment and for watching!
Run your Zooz at around 30 psi. It's game changing. An you can get pedal spacers to open up the space on the saddle to inner thigh.
Great idea! Iʻll have to try those things to make the Zooz more comfortable. Thanks for the comment and for watching!
mr dice guy for the supercross!
Yep, getting some custom dice for the Supercross would be sick! Thanks for that suggestion and for watching! 🤙🏻
Those Monza grips are like the old Oakley’s
Right? They are gonna be killer when they come out because you can buy different sleeves to really mix and match the colors. Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏼
Kev, I can’t believe you and Bernie don’t have at least 1 20” just for display
I actually have two 20ʻs but I didnʻt bring them out. One is my sonʻs bike from back in the day and one is a gift from a friend. Iʻll have to bring them out sometime later.
Passion is my thoughts...😊
Might be both!!! Thanks for the comment and for watching!!
Love the vids and graphics. Keep it up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You might know me. HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHE
I bet I do!
Bernie needs a Kos Cruiser
IF it motivates you to ride often, what's wrong with having healthy obsessions?
Which one is your favorite though? What frame rides best so-far?
-Sorry if you cover this... typing in comments while watching.
Great comment and I agree with you 100%! Riding is a great way to stay active and anytime you can get together with friends, itʻs always good for your mental health. I really like the Supercross, Race Inc, and the Monster Quad. Those are my favorite bikes to ride. The Skyway is another favorite because I built most of it and and it came out really well. Thanks for taking the time to share that comment with us and for watching! 🤙🏻
Love panaracer tires
I do too!
So race Inc used Tange pipe too ?
I’m not sure. I just know the Monzas use Tange.
@@cruisinginthe808 I’d have to check, but I’m pretty sure they do
Enjoying your vlogs bra!
Thanks man!!!! 🤙🏼
all i need is my Skyway T/A 24"
Thatʻs a beautiful bike so I can see why youʻd want just that one! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
HAVE YOU GUYS NOTICED THE BENT SEAT POST MAKES THE FRONT WHEEL TOO LIGHT , I CANNED OFF ON THE SHINGLE ROAD AND F&@CKED UP MY HAND PRETTY GOOD LOL , OR WAS IT MY 20 " SKATE PARK TIRES ? ANY THORTS ?
The bent seat post does place you further back on the bike and so is your center of gravity. Makes sense that it might be easier to flip back when trying to do a wheelie. Try and sit up on the seat, closer to the bars. You might just have to play around with your seat to see where is a good balance point. Good luck man!
Scoot your rear wheel inwards and reset your Paul brakes to straighten them out.
Weʻve tried all sorts of things to give that caliper more space and nothing weʻve found makes a difference. Not sure if we tried scooting the rear wheel more inward though so we can try that next. Thanks for the suggestion and for watching!
Bernie is cool as a fan. You guys Filipino? I grew up with so many Filipino cats. Big navy town here in Jax. Huge Filipino population
Agreed! Bernie is as cool as ice! He is Filipino. Iʻm too white to be Filipino! Haha! But I do have Asian blood....half Japanese and half Irish. Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
For me it’s definitely an obsession. Worse than a drug addiction and probably costs more
For sure. It’s still a little of money but so what. I realize I have always liked these Uber cool bike, just couldn’t afford when younger and life happened. Bmx is super rad. Can go tough look or super pimp. I look really clean and shiny.
Haha! Yeah, it definitely costs a lot to keep up! But man, it sure is fun! Thanks for the comment and for watching my friend!
All you have is new school bikes. No old school bikes?? I collected for 20yrs and had around 30 bikes. I only kept 4 now and am pretty happy. 85 pk, 83 24” raceinc, 2000 20”&24 “ ub . I do kinda miss my 24” technique. The hanebrink forks made it look different. Dan is a really cool guy and made a unique fork.
I don’t remember what happened to my Mongoose, I sold my Diamond Back Silver Streak to buy my Kuwahara Laser Lite, and then my mom sold it while I was in college for $50. Oh man, how I wished I still had them! So yeah we only have new school bikes. And we only buy bikes we can now ride as adults. Thanks for the comment and for watching!!🤙🏼
@@cruisinginthe808 I understand. I still fit on my 20” 2000 gt ultrabox. My 24” ultrabox is still in a box for that reason. 20” bikes just rip with a 45/15. I may build a 26”. Bmx bike. unfortunately, I can’t put a 44 or 45 tooth sprocket on the front of 26” size frames. I use to race velodrome and like big gearing.
Had a mighty goose and a ammaco 202 when I was a kid broke all the local records on that might goose that bike was the nuts thinking of getting an adult BMX and looking at s.e bikes p k ribber or big ripper?
What size bike do you think you’d want? Have you had a chance to ride any yet? The 24 is the closest to what we knew back as a kid. It’s smaller and much easier to handle. The bigger you go up from there adds stability but you then have a harder time to rip it up on a track or jumps. Not sure what you want to ride this for. If you’re just looking to cruise around any of the SE bikes are good. Same with the Monzas that just came out with a 27.5 they have as a pre-order right now. My best advice is to see if you can get to a local bike shop to jump on a few to see what you like the best. Good luck man and keep us posted on what you decide to get! 🤙🏼
@@cruisinginthe808 thanks bro will let you know what I go for.

i love the race inc the best . only thing i dont like about is the HUGE american BB , but i think that could be worked around . most frames allways got 1 thing i dont like aboit it. lol
I actually wanted that so I could use the Knight Bike UFO BB. But I hear ya, itʻs hard to get something that everyone likes. Appreciate the comment though and for watching!
they make up to a 29 inch mag wheels ...not skyways unfortunately .....but they do make em.....the quad angle is beautiful & would look sick with a set of black mags
They make metal mags in that size but not in that plastic like the Tuff Wheels. They still look pretty good though! Thanks for the comment and for watching! 🤙🏻
no HUTCH pedals??
Ya’ll making me sound like weirdo lol.
You are just really well accessorized, brother!

The hutch 24 rims look similar to Araya 7b rims.
Good eye! They really do! Thanks for sharing that and for watching!!
Oh, y’all got thorns ?
Am I the LAST person riding strictly 20’s and 24’s? I find that anything over 24 stops feeling like a bmx to me
Weʻve come across a lot of guys still riding 20s so you are not alone. Even on some long rides weʻve seen some adults on 20s so there are still guys like you out there! For me, the 20 is too small. I like to have some room and just cruise. But hey, you do what feels good for you! Thanks for sharing that comment and for watching!
