That’s awesome man! Congrats and welcome back to BMX🤘🙏

Ya man, I’ve been doing lawnmowers, tailwhips, boomerangs etc on my big ripper. Still trying to figure out a solution for a Potts mod on the PK Ripper with hydraulic brakes🤘

Thanks man, it was the movie RAD that got me in to BMX. Kudos to you.👍👍

Thanks brother! It’s my favorite bike right now.

Thanks man! It was a fun interview to do

Thanks man! Stoked you found that Beastmode. They’re super similar. I tried the model C too and it just sits in my garage. I gave up on BMX. Saw the Haro Master 26 but couldn’t find one. That Big Ripper was a game-changer. This PK fits the sweet spot for me though. Grats on the Beastmode and welcome back to BMX 🤘

Brian Cockey Sr that’s awesome!!!

It’s a fun bike to ride🤘

Bro, yes! Please tag me on Instagram when you get the profile cranks on it! @bigbikebmx on Instagram🤘

Dominic Soto it’s only about two and a half each way. Casual pace would be about 45 min each way depending on traffic and lights

Mr Foreman sweet! Good luck!

That’s a great tip Dara🤘

Fog City RC you totally need this bike bro🤘

Yes, you do need it. I'm 47 and spend about an hour a day practicing my wheelies. I'll get there one day, definitely not where I was 25+ years ago though but this bike is awesome.

Pinstripe Jim do it at your own pace too. I find myself getting frustrated with re-learning old tricks sometimes and I have to remind myself it’s just about having fun now🤘

Ya man. I’m 5’11. Love the size of this bike

Sweet! They're fun

Hey man. I replied to you on IG. I think you would fit well on this bike for both jumping and carving at the track and skatepark. I am 5 feet 11 inches tall or 180.34 centimeters

It’s definitely a fun time to ride BMX🤘

I’ll be honest, the 20” bikes feel small and squirrelly to me. The 26” Haro and the 27.5 PK feel like BMX bikes to me. I couldn’t go back to a 20” now.

@@BigBikeBMX thanks for the feedback! I'll definitely ride a 27.5

I’m 5’11 and love my PK. Very agile bike and it doesn’t feel small at all. Changing any stock bike usually voids the warranty so I wouldn’t worry. Just make sure you have enough thread to run them. I added pegs to my PK Ripper🤘

I'm wearing a ProTec in this video but honestly hated that helmet. I just recently switched to a S1 lifer retro helmet and LOVE it. Way better fit than the ProTec in my opinion.

That’s great! The Thousand Heritage Bike helmet looks cool too!

Yup. Black ops makes a potts mod bolt. Check my channel for the install video. Works great.

80sBMX Craig bro, you’re is so legit with that Bullseye elite stem and those red parts🔥🔥🤘

Überholverbot any of the fat tire bikes will make wheelies easier. Jumping rocks and things? Fat ripper wins. If you’re wanting a nimble wide tire bike that rides like a BMX bike though? PK wins that debate. They’ll both be fun though🤘- thanks for watching brother!

We put them side by side with the Maniacc Flyer and the PK is shorter (height wise). I’ll see what I can do to have someone ride both🤘

Isaac Irvine you guys should make a review video of that. pk vs beast mode

If you find one CLOSE to $1000, buy it. It’s the first year SE made them in 27.5. Now, is it a big deal? Not to me, but some folks like that collectible aspect. I don’t know if they’re shipping 27.5 PKs still so it makes me think the new ones are close.

@@BigBikeBMX thanks so much man.

Dan Turcas thanks Dan!🤘

5446moto I know some people hate the look of the money wrap but I’m ok with it. I’m an 80s kid. I had a Haro wrapped in Vision Street Wear stickers don’t I’m used to it 🤣🤘

Ace Money thanks brother🤘🙏

I don’t know man. You’re sure it’s not the hydraulic brake pads? I’m running tubes in mine.

Hit up @phoenixbikeco on Instagram and see if Shaun has any suggestions. That’s where I go for my random tech questions🤘

Fellow Aussie checking in, I also bought this bike. I do get a little bit of spoke noise, but only when I do some hard pedalling (I weigh 80kg), only a little bit though. Check out my profile, I’ve uploaded a video of my PK 27.5, tell me if yours has any cassette wobble like mine?

Couldn’t agree more. It goes where you expect it to go when doing basic flatland stuff which is my “test”.

Hawaiian Punch keep an eye on shops posting on Instagram. I know two guys that scooped them up that way. “#pkripper275” 🤘

I’ve ran the stock 2.5 tires since day one. 27.5X2.5

DeJuan Longley these have cassette hubs so you’ll want to look at Elite Hubs. Freewheels go on my Big Ripper🤘

Isaac Irvine sorry I’m new to this so i have to change the whole hub

DeJuan Longley all good. We’re all learning as we go brother. What are you trying to change with the new gear? The sound or the gearing so it’s easier to pedal?

Isaac Irvine I want to do wheelies and be able to keep up with long distance riders

SS396RAT makes a huge difference 🤘

@@BigBikeBMX 😂😂

Lifting the seat helps you wheelie better? Hell its day 2 for me.... good work out

Thanks brother! I’ll let ya ride it when I make it out. I’m dying to ride your Cult🤘

Not at all, I’d say it’s perfect if you’re looking for an agile feel with a comfortable feel.

Great question. I’m 5’11. I’ve loved both the 29 big ripper but I personally love the 27.5 PK more. It’s a little more peppy but still doesn’t feel cramped.

Isaac Irvine my buddy is about or 6’2 or abit taller and keeps insisting I should go 29’ even with my height. It will be my first big bike so I want to get the right bike out the gate. I’ve had BMX bikes when I was younger so I know this is big change. But I do trust your reviews so I think 27.5 it is! Just need to find one in stock.lol which is real tough.

I haven’t tried but I believe I heard Perry say you could in his KZfaq reveal of the bike

I like it. I grew up with quieter free wheels so I don’t mind the lack of noise and it’s been smooth for me. Great question 🤘 - how about you? Like it?

I miss the noise lol. I still have my assassin and there is more engagement. So getting used to that little space before engagement will take some time. She is smooth though. Digging it.

shirkers I’ve been looking at some profile elite hubs for down the road. Have you tried those in the past?

No I haven’t tried those. I had GT mowhawk hubs on my assassin. But sold all of my hop up parts when I moved to AZ in the late 90s.

Now my assassin is back to stock, except for bear trap pedals and the boss knee saver bars.

Definitely look at the PK, Maniaac Flyer, or Beastmode for agility type riding. They’re a little more nimble in my opinion

Get a 24in not so small and you can still whip it around

I'd love to see a new color scheme of the PK 27.5 - I love mine.

As a former flatland guy I would go straight to the 27.5 personally. That’s my fun bike. When my office opens up again though, I’ll be on the 29er to and from work because it’s easier to ride that longer distance on that bike. Hope that answer helps🤘

It’s got 10 speed gears now. When it was single-speed I ran a rear cog that was one tooth bigger🤘

Peter Ristevski none of mine have any wobble at all. You might want to take it back and ask them to fix it for you

Peter Ristevski SE will tell you to have the local shop warranty it. Chain tensioners can be tricky if not adjusted perfectly. Good luck bro. I love my PK Ripper🤘

​@@BigBikeBMX I really appreciate your response, Issac! Yeah I already sent an email to SE Bikes warranty department here in Australia last week. Soon after I realised that the warranty department's address was the same as the shop where I bought my bike from, who are the main distributors for SE Bikes in Australia. The guy who replied to my email is probably the same guy who assembled my bike lol. His response was… “From what we see your rear cassette is within acceptable tolerance. This small movement will not affect the function of the bicycle.” This was in response to the video demonstrating the issue. I've also sent an email SE Bike warranty in the US, let's see what they say in head office. It's just good to know that I have yourself and many other SE Bike owners saying that you don't have any cassette wobble. Thanks for the response bro!

Great question Tom. These are the BrokeBoyzBMX Santos bars. You can get them from Phoenix Bike Co if you call the shop or DM @brokeboyzbmx on instagram. These are the 8 inch rise two-piece bars. They make them in a four-piece model with the same geometry as well.

How much ..... it doesn’t really matter I’m going to get them anyways.... just out of curiosity 😁

@@tomlalonde1249 they’re about 80-90 bucks made in the USA by a shop that makes Motorcycle bars. 👍

@@tomlalonde1249 search my channel for “Brokeboyzbmx bars”. I’ve done two unboxing and reviews on them both.

@@BigBikeBMX Thank you sir 🙏

Brother, they’re out of bikes everywhere globally right now. Nobody could predict Covid so when factories shut down bikes dried up. They’ll be back on western shores soon. SE got as many of their orders fulfilled from the factory but the demand is through the roof right now so stores are empty.

Isaac Irvine I’d love to chat if you’re interested. (778) 735-1413. Txt me if you’re interested. I have some questions about bikes and parts. I’d like to wrench on my bike that I don’t have yet.

Buy this bike yet ? What about locally Lynn Valley bikes on the north shore ? Or order from Harvesterbikes.ca , looks like they have stock.

@@jasong728 I picked up a Sunday high C and was delivered early July from @SourceBMX. Lynn Valley bikes has no cruisers and @Harvesterbikes is great but the did not have stock at the time either. A bike shop on Commercial ave can get SE but again had limited stock when I was looking.

Thanks man! Welcome to the family🤘🤘

Al P I asked Todd and he jokingly said between 250 and 2,500. It’s not a limited edition bike. I hope they make a lot more because it’s the perfect bike in my opinion and I want as many BMXers as possible to enjoy it🤘

Would you change the gearing on the bike?

Bugsbunny808 not at all. It’s great for wheelies and riding around. I changed the gearing on my big ripper to make wheelies easier but the smaller wheels make this bike easy to get the wheel up

Vee Speedster 27.5 x 2.5” tires. Not sure about 26. They make a bunch of different sizes though.

Yes sir🤘🤘

I’ve seen people 5’3” up to 6 foot ride and wheelie it comfortably. You can set it up with new bars to customize the fit

Jackeline Lopez they make affordable bikes and the best place to check is your local bike shop or sebikes.com to see what the retail price is. People are asking lots of money on eBay for bikes because they’re sold out in many shops. More bikes are coming soon though and prices will go back down

@@BigBikeBMX do you know when it's going down

Don Amigo SE says 33.1 on their website.

Isaac Irvine indeed, that massive heft affect ride ability, cruising, and jumps?

Don Amigo great question. Not even a little bit. It’s bigger and less whippy than a 20inch but if you look at my most recent video. I can tailwhip and ride it like my 80s flatland bikes👍 - great question Don!

Isaac Irvine fantastic - great to hear as that was my only concern. Think I’ll order mine tomorrow ;)

Redline makes great bikes. Congrats!

EL DNERO 100 they’re so fun! Welcome back to BMX🤘

You can definitely change things up to make them ride how you like them to ride🤘

You just described well over $1000 in parts...lol... Nice choices though 👍🏾

I would look at the retaining locking nut that holds the cassette driver nice and tight. I haven't had any issues with mine, but I tinker with things a lot on my bike and checking bolts etc. It's bot in Arizona so when it's too hot to ride, I'll spend my leisure time tuning up my bikes. Let me know if that helps resolve the issue.

naw, you can add a laid back post if you need a little more room. It'll feel like a BMX bike vs a big cruiser feel.
