Nodding to reissuing old school sneakers, classic BMX bikes look to be the next best accessory to pedal around on while sporting those checkered Vans. In honor of it’s 30th anniversary, SE Bikes (yep, they are still around) has decided to reissue the iconic PK Ripper ‘LoopTail’. The Ripper inspired a lot of other designs at the time and this version has all the signature bits. The bike rolls on Skyway Tuff II nylon rims, it’s got a set of pads, and comes sans paint in a ball burnished finish.
While this one might not get the respect from owners at the BMX Bike Museum, it beats dropping serious cash on a hand restored model.

Wait.. this New old-school BMX bike is cool, yet New old-school Nike sneakers from the same era are whack? I’m a bit confused..

I had a Mongoose back in the day. I still have scars on my shins from the pedals stabbing me when my feet would fall off after unsuccessfully taking a jump.
