We don't really know what to think of this one. She's out there, that's for sure. She's out in the desert and looks confused at the same time. Hopefully the monocoque style 20 inch bike she's on has a motor inside because she has a long way to go. In short, girl on bike = pin-up time. We shut up now. 18+
A little while ago we visited Skatepark Waalhalla in Nijmegen for the first time. From the outside it looked promising because this wasn't just an old abandoned sports hall. The size of the building was huge and the roof was high. What caught our eyes when stepping inside was the full on bar. Beers on tap, hard liquor and of course other healthy drinks as well. We checked the shop which was big but a bit unorganised. It would freak the Coach out if he would have to work in there but the collection of bikes, blades and boards was there. The chill area was probably a bit on the chill side as parents still had their jackets on and those who brought a beanie were lucky they took it with them. Not that it was freezing, but if you just sit there for hours waiting for the kids to be finished it can get cold. But we brought the bike so that complaint didn't come from our side.
The park felt brand new. They had just relocated from down the road which meant they had to start all over again. That's a good thing on one side because you can build whatever you want, but
Like most 2017 complete bikes from Premium, the Subway comes in two sizes: 20.5" or a 21" top tube. But with the size comes a different handlebar. 8.75" tall bars for the ones prefering a shorter bike and 9.0" tall for the taller riders out there. That right there saves you on buying an extra set of bars in the right size. The Premium Top Load stem keeps the bars in place and the FAT Capitol Pivotal seat keeps your ass from getting sore. The fully sealed wheels with Alienation PBR rims will keep this ride rolling for a long time. Pricetag you ask? $439.99.
The word Pura could be added to the La Vida complete bike from Premium. The 2017 model shows no complications so you can enjoy life in the purest form full of good sessions with no worries. The joy it will bring to you for only $ 549.99* is a steal. Full chromoly frame, forks and bars as well as cranks, FAT 2.4 CK tires and 28-9 gearing to get you up to speed for that big gap. Worth looking into for sure at your local Premium BMX dealer.
Ready, straight out of the box. We hear it all the time but this time it's true. No need to replace anything and if maintained properly, the DUO will hold up for years to come. You even have an option in colour, blue or green. Take a look at the photos for the exact blue and green, or better yet, visit a Premium BMX dealership.
