2021 Sunday EX Julian Arteaga Bmx Bike Check
Вставка

- Quick overview of my 2021 Sunday EX. I'm kinda all over the place on this one and I forgot a few details (The cassette hub is shite) but this is like my 100th time trying to do a bike check with this bike so this is what you get.... If you have any questions, leave em in the comments below 👇
I got thy 2020 EX Chris Childs, & luckily since I live in Nevada We get no humidity & not too much rain or snow.
I'm 48, & got back into BMX after 25 years, & it's really cool to still be able to buy the brands I relied upon on the 80's like Odyssey & Profile to name a few.
I have Profile chain ring(spline driven) Cult Hawk Cranks, The Shadow conspiracy brake & Colony Bretheren Lever, BSD Swerve rear Cassette, Hazard Lite rims, but still have to overhaul the whole drive train from stock, I want Odyssey R25 forks, BSD Leezus Bars, & a Profile Stem
It must be the ocean air (combination of sun and salt) because mine is holding up well: I ride often, leave it out in the rain/snow and no rust whatsoever. I live 6,000 ft above sea level so the weather is harsh. So I assume it should be fine as long as you don't live by the ocean? I do clean it every few rides though, as it gets very dirty. Great review.
@Victor Velasco I can see the ocean right now.. The rustyness has grown on me. I really like this bike👍👍
Beautiful bike😍 puts the scrap pile with wheels I ride to shame.
@Captain Neo All bikes are beautiful 👍 👍
@@thebikehippie6562 you've never seen my bike😂😂
@Captain Neo 😂
To take the rust off get a tin foil ball, water and and a cloth, dip the tin foil ball in water and scrub against rust for a couple of mins, then dry it up with the cloth and you will get the rust off
@oBlansky.. Thanks for the tip.. I'll give it a try 👍
Have you thought about clear coating it or clear powder coating it?
I bought the EX raw, just for those lil touches of individuality to each one, & to the uninitiated it looks like a rust bucket on wheels, but those who are in the know, know what's up
@R3v0lt_e-Vlogs No, I just left it as is.. Looks kinda cool all rusty
Damn, I was about to buy this bike until I saw how easily it rusts. If you could go back in time what would you get instead?
@Dr Shockter I was stuck between this bike and the Cult Devotion.. Should have bought the Cult.. I do like my Sunday, but I don't like the rust
Full disclosure though. I do live near the ocean, so that might have something to do with it
@@thebikehippie6562 It's super humid where I live so I can almost guarantee that would happen here too lol, thanks for the response man!
@Dr Shockter Yeah, I'd look at something else if I were you.. The red Sunday EX looks good, but it has a freecoaster, so I don't know if you want that one.. But that paint job looks sick 👍
@@thebikehippie6562 It might also not help that it’s in a raw finish, Sunday itself is good
Why did it rust? Have you had falls and was it scratched or just started to rust from being outside? I am about to acquire it and I would not like it to rust after a while
@Fufherman farfan No falls.. Any little scratch rusts.. There's a zip tie holding the brake cable. It slid down my top tube causing very small scratches in the Finnish. They were very visible.. Then those scratches got rusty overnight.. I do live near the ocean, but my old frame is raw and did not do this.. My bikes do not get left outside 👍
@@thebikehippie6562 Muchas gracias por la ayuda. Voy a tener mucho cuidado con ella. :/ Lastima que no vi tu videos antes. Si no hubiera preferido algún otro modelo. De nuevo gracias y mucho éxito al canal.
i think thats design
$900 bike, it's $509
@Frank Bailey Canadian dollars with tax and shipping $950 👍
@Ethan Vaughn I'll buy new parts when the old ones break. I'm old, I don't ride that hard👍
