Gyros are great and fairly simple to set-up....but make sure when you buy one you purchase a couple of spare cables as well. I used to freestyle back in the 80's and I remember when the odyssey gyro was first introduced - it was a better version than anything that preceded it (sr spintech, acs rotor, etc) but unlike those other detanglers, it required it's own odyssey made cables. I did eventually see the sport evolve to the whole brakeless era....the tricks simply didn't seem to really require braking anymore...they also got a whole lot harder for an old schooler like myself
I switched to
fixed gear bikes some time ago but lately I've been thinking about building a freestyle bike and getting out there again. I've got tons of 80's era parts....relocating my old
General Osborn Pro f&f set could be tough though!
