Eastern Reaper (2011)


$600.00 Released January, 2011

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Super lightweight, won't drag you down or hold you back. Pedals are very grippy on sneakers. Assembly easy enough for those moderately comfortable with tools.

The Cons:Not as stable or smooth as the Eastern Growler, wheels are fairly small. Doesn't come fully assembled, will need a few tools to get it done right.

The Eastern Reaper (2011) is a professional-grade BMX bike designed to be ridden hard by bigger or more experienced riders. It hosts a plethora of professional-grade components such as helix tubing for greater resistance to denting, and a low-boy seatpost clam that allows for a shorter seatpost.

As a direct upgrade from the 2010 version, the Reaper (2011) trades in a KMC chain for a half-link chain, Eastern Curb Monkey tires for Eastern Fuquay (improved traction, enhanced resistance to street damage), and of course a standard 4130 chromoly frame with lightning rod tubing for one with the aforementioned helix down tube.
