NS Bike Suburban (frame) BMX Bike

4.83/5 (6 Reviews)


Product Description

TECHNICAL STREET DIRT
Ultimate frame for technical street, dirt and 4X. This frame is for weight conscious, technically proficient riders looking for something really flickable, something that flies with grace. Will work great with 24" and 26" wheels.
Suggested setup; a low height 80-100mm fork and some well chosen light, but strong parts.
The Suburban uses double-butted heat treated 4130 tubing. After welding it goes through a special heat treating process to relieve the stress at the welds.

Date Reviewed: March 10, 2008

Strengths:    Very light, tight geometry, strong, good value for money and looks sleek, adjustable brake mounts, touch up paint.

Weaknesses:    Colour choice not so good, although mine is from 05, so there was only black, lots of new colours now. Seat tube comes too high out the top of the frame

Bottom Line:   
One of the best frame you can buy for the money, if you want a BMX with big wheels, its pretty much perfect, rides ace with 100mm sus, 80mm sus and rigids, good for anyone who like street, dirt and park!

Strengths:    Perfect street/DJ geometry, Light weight, strong

Weaknesses:    colour choices, but should be more for 2007

Bottom Line:   
The first thing anyone ever says when they hop on my bike is how "natural" it feels. Its one of those bikes you hop on and just feel confident right from the start, even if its your first ride. With the super short chainstays and steep headangle its such a good bike for tech street and DJ. I have ridden loads of street/DJ specific frames before and not one has come close to this. The geometry is so sweet, and cromoly strength at under 2.5kg makes life alot easier. No regrets.
