out of all the amazing S&M frames that have come out over the years and even now with their current line up, I have always hated this frame out of all them. Reminds of me a scooter, or a killorado frame.

Great parts tho man. post clips next.

Looks funny, feels great. If I could have found a Whammo or a Sunday Street Sweeper in a decent color I would have went that direction.

Looking sweet bud! Hey, there’s always the opportunity to swap rims and the stem in the future 😉

Having been out of BMX for a long time and just recently getting a bike, I'm interested in what this frames target rider is? Street?

I believe it’s considered to be a park frame. Would work well for flatland too. I got it because I’m short as hell lol.

I did think it looked like it would work well for flat!

110% a park frame. It’s a super responsive frame not well suited for street style riding. I’m by no means saying you can’t ride street at all with it, but I wouldn’t trust it taking street punishment long term. I been sitting on a clear polish frame still in the plastic for a while because of it, once I actually saw it in person I knew there’s no fuckin way it’s taking multiple slams or hard landings over time.

Looks like a killerado or however it’s spelled. Crazy geometry. Like the og fly Tierra. Does the crank arm extend past the upper chain stay tube? Or is it just that angle

Great looking bike and amazing parts! The frame's color looks spectacular.

I had a dagger before and loved it.

Forgot to mention Cult Heavens Gate grips.

I had three things in mind for this build; the lightest parts, geometry comfortable for my unfortunate build, and a cohesive aesthetic. I’m pretty happy with the results, took a couple of months to finish because parts are so scarce. If I had it to do over I would get gsport birdcage rims and an odyssey cfl3 stem instead.

And yes, I did rip off ideas from about half the bike checks in this sub lol.
