for a 330 dollar bike, it rides like a dreaaaaam. took it to the bmx race tracks in boise(im on vacation) and one of the kids who i had watched the night before and was a hella good racer said that it was better speed wise than half the kids at the races that were running 44 16 and actually had race bikes. pedals dont slip much, bars are a tad to small, and stock tires arent to good on dirt but other than that its pretty much what i wanted.

My bicycle. It's not the best but hey, I don't even ride bikes. I just use it to get from here and there every once and awhile. I really need to find the damn seat post though. I have no idea where it went.

I tried riding my friend's perfect 10's and I couldn't even get the damn bike off the ground, let alone manual it. They were so massive it's almost pointless. Then again he's 6'5"

Honestly, just imagine riding those bars, with a macneil deuce deuce. It's too big.

What tubes do you guys ride? I'm getting so sick of these damn tubes.

Every time I put a new tube on my bike, it very slowly deflates. I've had 3 different kind of tubes and every single one of them have deflated slowly on their own. The first tube I had to fill up every 10 minutes. I checked the tube (with the soapy water trick) and there were no punctures. Second tube was doing the same thing, then one time when I went to inflate it again, it exploded at like 40psi. The third tube so far is doing the same thing as the first one, but now it's deflating faster. So I have to inflate it like every 5 minutes.

Keep note that all three of these tubes are a different brand, they're all the right size, and I run my tubes at 80psi. Well, for about 2 minutes then they're down to about 60. I even tested them all without them being in the tire (I do this with all my tubes before I put them on to make sure they aren't fucked up), and they did the same thing before I even put them on, so I know it's not a problem with the tire or the rim.

I've been battling this tube problem for like a whole year now and it's so damn annoying and it's fucking up my rims. So I need a suggestion here.
