#6 - Subrosa Malum - 11.32 - bit.ly/3sgCdyQ
The 2022 Subrosa Malum BMX Bike is built for extreme riding. Subrosa knows how to keep their finger on the pulse of what is in and the 170mm Rant Bangin' cranks, Contender 2.35" tires, and TSC Crow pivotal seat prove it. Other aftermarket components such as the 100% chromoly frame and fork, Rant Party On V2 hubs, and Subrosa Rose top load stem put doubts on strength and durability to rest allowing you to ride harder and go bigger without worry. Jump on a Subrosa Malum if the best is what you need.
#5 - Kink Switch - 11.5 - bit.ly/3vGDJKo
The 2022 Kink Switch utilizes a dialed in geometry designed for those that want a bike for technical riding. To help this style of riding, the components chosen have characteristics to help such as geometry and material used to make them. The Kink Trident fork has a 26mm offset, 1-piece steerer tube, and is constructed from 100% chromoly. The Mission Deploy freecoaster helps chain tricks together whether you are rolling forward or fakie, meaning fakie manuals just got a whole lot easier. Kink even took grinding into consideration and included 2 Mission nylon pegs. The Kink Switch slays manuals and 180's bringing more lines together in the streets and in the park.
#4 - Cult Control - 11.6 - bit.ly/3gLnW8l
The Cult 2022 Control BMX Bike is built to shred featuring a 100% chromoly frame and fully sealed bearings all around. Cult aftermarket components such as the Forged Salvation V5 Top Load stem and Cult Match rims ensure that both strength and durability are top notch. The possibilities are limitless with the Cult Control BMX Bike.
#3 - Subrosa Letum - 11.74 - bit.ly/3smshnM
Pegs? Check. Hub guards? Check. Freecoaster? Check. The 2022 Subrosa Letum BMX Bike is ready to wreck the streets right out of the box. The Rant Moonwalker II freecoaster wheel allows you to coast backwards without the need of back-pedaling letting you concentrate on the next part of the line. 100% chromoly is utilized in constructing the frame, forks, handlebars, and the cranks creating the strength needed to go big without hesitation. Factor in the Shadow, Rant, and Subrosa aftermarket components and it's pretty obvious why the Subrosa Letum is one of the hottest bikes on the market.
#2 - Cult Devotion - 11.93 - bit.ly/3gGt2Ca
The Cult 2022 Devotion BMX Bike is a top of the line model designed for pro-level riding. 100% chromoly frame, forks, bars, and cranks provide extreme strength for peace of mind that going big won't be a game ender. Hubs, headset, and bottom bracket feature fully sealed bearings for a buttery smooth, reduced maintenance ride. Even the geometry is dialed in to create the best possible experience for seasoned riders. Step up your game with the Cult Devotion BMX Bike.
#1 - Kink Whip - 13.8 - bit.ly/2Vl4dVC
The 2022 Kink Whip BMX Bike takes things to the next level with components made from chromoly and every bearing being fully sealed for pro level strength and performance. The frame, forks, handlebars, and cranks are constructed out of 100% 4130 chromoly, the same material that can be found on top level bikes. Kink didn't stop there. They also included many other parts that can be ordered as aftermarket upgrades such as the Bold stem, Hemlocks, Nexus 25 tooth sprocket, and Duran stealth pivotal seat. It's hard to believe the price when seeing everything the Kink Whip comes with. - บันเทิง
I won't lie Doug. I have gone to great lengths to avoid your channel. The snow has gotten so depressing,i found you at the end of summer so i have been suffering immensely seeing you grow and post more. I really appreciate your compassion to bmx and helping people get into and or understand it.
same they just built a really nice pump track right next to my house and i road there with freinds every day just made it last year now i cant
every time i buy a bike this dude shoots it down and says the bike brand is trash so im unsubscribing
The effort you put in the videos is the best!! I really appreciate you for that!
So many things to consider these days buying a bike, was so much easier back in the old days.
Thanks for your guidance.
I have a 2021 Kink Whip XL and it’s been doing well on the trails. I have added a odyssey 1999 front brakes, rant rims front and rear, odyssey 28T La Guardia front sprocket, and maxxis maxxDaddy tires.
Just found this channel and I'm really glad I did. 👌👌👌
Thanks man. Was thinking about going with the Cult Devotion. You’ve gotta admit, it’s easily the best looking bike on the list.
12 year old me had a Mongoose Hoop-D that I got at Walmart in like 1998 for I think $150 when my Diamondback was stolen. If not for Mongoose I wouldn't have been able to afford another BMX bike. Mongoose holds a special place in my heart. I bent the forks and flipped over the bars at the park when I clipped my front wheel but 12 year old me was able to bend them back into shape.
Same I had a redline got stolen at the liquor store and bought a mongoose at Walmart. Circa 2011
Thanks For making me choose the right bike and I have to go with the kink whip
Went with the Kink Switch 2022 thanks to your info. 😎
Thanks, went with the Subrosa Letum 2022.. pretty new to BMX
thanks mate , my 11 year old son just starting and your vids are great thank you
Thank you my friend!
Hard to fault that list. Doug's really built a great formula to break a bike down from a variety of angles for comparison. Personally, I think the Colony Premise trumps everything on that list but it's also a much more expensive bike over there in the US. Here (in Australia) a 2012 Whip costs AU$800 and while a Premise's RRP is AU$1100, you can get them as low as $680 (I paid $798), which is quite a bit cheaper than the Whip and features a far better fork and front hub. I picked up a near-new Devotion frame and stem just recently and built it up with a Wasp wheelset and the spline-drive Fiend sprocket I was going on about in Doug's live stream a week ago. Rides like a dream and is the only bike I have and won't be putting pegs on. All in all, anything from Doug's list should satisfy a mid-level rider.
I have a 2022 Kink Switch and love it!
i'm so glad i did your bike recommendation and got the Kink Whip
Thanks for the review. Great information. I actually have s subrosa letum and I really like it.
Good choice!!
@@Dougsterbob thanks
@@Dougsterbob appreciate your videos alot of good information 👍🏼
Hello.
What do you think of the Haro Midway, is it a good option for a medium level?
Thank you, best regards
Getting back into riding after many years (80’s)just messing around stuff . Just got a new crome dk hellio 24” for $500 and some change on sale , salesman said it had full cromoly parts, etc . Is it a decent bike or did I get screwed
Another shout out....awesome lol. If I was going to get the Letum, I'd probably do the red fade as well. But I'm going with the Switch because of the colors and comes with pretty decent parts. However, my son likes the Letum. So I'll let him ride my Switch and if bmx is something he'd be serious about, I'll get him a Letum.
I don't remember seeing Mongoose being sold at walmart until the late 90's.

Welcome!!
Kink whip.....called it 😂 🤘
Cult control or kink switch which is better overall for freestyle tricks. Thanks for sending that info on the sizes.
The switch is better quality and comes with pegs and freecoaster. I think the switch is a better bike for you
@@Dougsterbob Thanks for the help.
Is the website u linked where I should get a bike from or from the manufacture
Where can I get the 2021 kink whip. I cant find it anywhere it’s not even on kinks website
The kink whip is 339 right now at dans.. my favorite bike has been the l500 the legion That's the Best Buy the Chrome one is 500 but they have a black one that's like 428..oh the kink is the xl for 339 wow that is a steal omg
looking for a flatland bike...do they even exist anymore? or do I gotta go used
You can get all 4 hub guards, the right one for the hubs, directly from Cult for about $20 plus shipping
When they're in stock at least
I have a budget of 700 and am very new to bmx but would like a quality bike to last for years to come wich bike should I get Doug?
dougsterbobsignup.ck.page/b83a412a6b fill this out so I can learn a bit more like height, riding style and so on
Do you recommend them for beginners?
how about WTP reason? I'm planning to buy that.
I have the malum got it from albe’s it’s really good.
Cult juvenile 18 for an 8 year old ?
Is the aluminum strong enough ?
I assume so
Like the weight vs the kink
what is perfect height for 20.75 in I am 6ft looking into kink switch.
Hey mate, I ride street only and I’ve got a decent budget $800ish. I’m 5”7 what do you recommend?
You got one?
The subrosa letum would be an easy choice if the colours were better. Definitely not a fan of the red.
Great video doug
I had the Kink Williams before it was stolen and man i loved that bike more than anything it was a dream to ride coming from a used beat up verde cadet that i put way too much money into. Would 100% buy another one if i had the money
Theft sucks👎😪
Man, I hate to hear that. You'll get the money and get another one soon.
what about Cult Devotion 26" BMX?
Hey brother! Can you talk about the Stranger Royale Complete 2021???
Honest Opinion Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have got to get me a new bike. My old diamondback weighs almost 34 lbs with no pegs lol yikes.. coming from that I think I’ll enjoy a more modern bike in the 25-26lb range
I'm 5' 5" would this bike work for me?
is there a difference between "aftermarket chromoly" as you say, and normal chromoly? little bit confused by that statement about the kink whip...
So generally aftermarket chromoly is heat treated, sometimes butted tubing, and made from sanko chromoly which is better quality and more reliable. The after market chromoly parts are just more reliable with better quality manufacturing
@@Dougsterbob that makes sense, thanks. im eyeing up the fiend type A 2022 complete, the frame is listed as "Fiend Embryo Full Chromoly Frame" on source bmx, is this like their way of saying good/trash cromo? forks and bars are listed as the same too
Just bought the Cult Devotion, ill weigh it and let you know
Im 6 foot and just bought the sunday scout 20.75 you think thats okay for me ?
Thanks for being on the live to ask your question!! glad you finally got a bike, i know you've been looking for a while
@@Dougsterbob thanks bro your the best keep up the hard work
I wasn't aware that Mongoose was now a 'Walmart brand' until recently. Back in the 70's and 80's, Mongoose was one of the dopest bikes a kid could plant his ass on. I moved on to Dyno's in the later 80's but I had a lot of good memories on a Mongoose. I didn't even step foot into a Walmart until I was like 30 because we didn't have any Walmart's in NYC. Unfortunately I left all my bikes and frames in my father's garage when I moved and the son of a bitch sold them for vodka money.
I just picked up the 2022 whip because of your review...changed out pedals , changed out stem , cut bars , cut seat post.. Got Ti nuts on front and back wheels , changed tires to demolition momentum...bike weighs 25.5 now. Much better ride.
Not too expensive to shave off a few pounds huh? Sounds like you make the right choices!!
I did too for christmas yet it got stolen so im getting a cult devotion tamaro for only 350 brand new upgraded
Hi Dougsterbob, I just sent you a request for a free bmx bike recommendation. I've been looking for a bmx (street/ park) use. What do you recommend? I'm 6'3" and I want a bmx with the strongest frame and components possible. Price is not really an issue to me, but I'm not looking to spent $1500 either. Thanks for your help.
Did you get the recommendation I sent?! Was it helpful???
@@Dougsterbob Yes, I got the recommendation, thank you, but I decided to go with a 2022 Subrosa Malum 22" bike.
Nice video. Except you said, "the Letum is the best street bike". You should be jailed for that. Lol. The best street complete is without a doubt WTP Battleship. After market frame and forks and 100% full pro parts package. Only street bike that I can think of can be 2nd place is the Sunday Street Sweeper. Still, I like your list for those of us on a budget.
As a 2020 Battleship complete owner, I agree with you but it's also in a whole other category due to its far more expensive cost.
I was going to say the same,Battleship is out of most ppls pockets Doughster List is about the cheapest and best quality you can get..That's like saying if you want to save weight get a Ti frame c'mon man be reasonable
@@motosapien2310 It's actually not as impossible as you think getting a high end complete. Instead of rushing out and buying something so so that will break, then you have to spend more and get another frame or whatever else. You end up spending more down the road. Discipline yourself and save longer and you get the EXACT bike you want.
I knew a 14 year old that got a Battleship last year doing that. He mowed lawns and did other odd jobs. I am a 100% believer that there is ALWAYS a way for those that look for it. Ambition counts. I remember being a kid.
My parents didn't always have extra money to buy me what I wanted. I would save birthday money, Christmas and work doing odd jobs to sometimes buy me R.C cars, video games or whatever else. So I don't it pay attention when people say, "oh I'll never be able to buy this or that".
Your last comment about "being reasonable". If people were "reasonable", then the car, airplane, etc wouldn't have never existed. Think about that for a minute,
when I was young, here in Australia the top bike brands were mongoose,torqer,bully,haro and Hoffman, if you didn't have one of those you were a loser and laughed off the trails or out of the park 😆
LED light
ABS brakes
LCD display
ATM machine
PIN number
BMX bike
These are redundant abbreviations.
I had a kink gap in high school and cracked the frame lol. Not even riding hard.
can you convert the cult devotion to LHD ?
If you buy a new lhd hub or wheel
And lhd cranks
@@Dougsterbob Thanlkyou!
yeah but the quality of the chromoly on the mongoose isn't good bars and forks bends easy and the frame dents easy
I never got the bike recommendations and got a message saying you only do it once wth
try to open the link in a private browser window
At some point, maybe think abou only noting if the bike DOESN'T have chromolly.
my crank snapped on my letum for only having it for 4 days sad :(
What cranks are those?
rant banging
Mafia super kush is way better now at the price of 199$
You know why I don’t trust Mongoose? Even their pro riders don’t ride actual Mongoose frames. They’re all riding custom made Laird Frame’s. If your best people won’t ride your product, why would I?
Fuzzy Hall used to ride them through and through without an issue. The L100 and L500 models are a reasonable offering from Mongoose. I just find the geometry a little off on them.
@@kirkwickham3336 Dont forget they weight a ton
Sure mongoose had their name on Wal-mart bikes but they have been in the game for a long time their old school bikes were sick and they now still make real nice race bikes and frames. Personally I can’t stand those elite bikes they are total posers
want a good bmx bike? Never buy cult. thats how i roll.
i broken so many cult parts with beginner to mid level tricks.
Also you literaly forgot the best bmx brand which is Wethepeople. I rather have a Wethepeople than a subrosa, kink, cult or mongoose.
That GT Fueler ⛽️ Should of been on there for $700🏁
