Yeah, it has massive tubes but it was nowhere near my calculations!
Instead the USA Backtrail Pro i have weights more than i could imagine...lol
Schwinn did a good job on the BEAST

Re: 2000 Schwinn Canadian Beast Jay Miron
Are you still there? I have a set of mint 48 hole Araya RBJ1's w/ XS hubs front and rear. I guess the 14mm front XS only came on team bikes. They would look nice on your Canadian Beast, plus they would be factory parts. They came off of a Team Automatic. The guy I bought them from only rode them literally three to four times. I was going to build a Garcia Automatic for my son but never got around to it. I have pics if interested.

Re: 2000 Schwinn Canadian Beast Jay Miron
I already have a set of those wheels, 4x4 V2 XS hubs, rear one has 14mm hollow axle and front one has a 3/8'' solid axle.
The downside of my set is that the front RBJ1 is badly pitted....if you don't mind pm me with the pics so i could see them
Thanks for the interest.
Oh! Btw, i got it a set of the classic Diatech TECH-77 levers (non-locking ones).

Araya rims, XS parts, Diatech levers, 4 piece bars, and Canadian Beast frames!
Truly the golden age of BMX products.
I was in a bike shop this winter and grabbed hold of a set of lightweight bars. I swear if I really wanted to, I could have bent them in half. I wonder if they would have made me pay for them?
BTW, I finished putting my Beast together this winter and will submit it to the museum shortly (I need to find some stickers for my fork first).

Let's see it! Us mid-school tank jockeys eat that shit up!!!!
Elect clowns, expect circus...
If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles an hour, you're gonna see some serious shit.

A little it more weight in a bike is good...weight=momentum...plus it gets you stronger. After riding a heavier bike jump on a lighter one you feel like superman!
I actually test ridden a S&M Stricker last month, built up with all the "right" lightweight parts....and the bike just flew off my feet when i tried to bunnyhop over a ledge

Yes, they do....good eye in the detail there!
They are almost the same as the Haro Jack Hammers and Bully 4pc bars. Though these are bit taller than the Jack Hammers

Re: 2000 Schwinn Canadian Beast Jay Miron
No, there's nothing dead in here......i still have it & in the very same condition as shown in the pics.
It's been missing the seatpost, cranks and tires to be a complete bike.
The parts are very hard to come by, if you know what you are looking for.
Schwinn XS special parts are uber rare, unfortunately.

Re: 2000 Schwinn Canadian Beast Jay Miron
Killer bike! Love that color! I've got a full XS addiction right now, have 5 in the basement with 2 more frames on the way....one is a raw Joey Garcia El Jefe USA made and the other is a Pro Mod USA built. Going to sell my chinese made pro stock 2 and 3 I think... I have NOS XS seats, cranks, stems, post clamps, chain wheel, hubs and chain tensioners for them
Hope you finish it soon and post pics!
I love everything mid school... That's how I roll
Into Schwinn XS currently, if you have parts or need something PM me

Unfortunately, i've left it as is, as i am more focused into GT midschool bmx bikes
I managed to come across the XS Hucker tires...and a set of BASIC, Whammy bars...as i've learned that Miron rode these exact handlebars.
It is a shame that i haven't build it yet.
