I don’t know if this is the correct place for this but I got a Beamer complete for sale. Indy 215s, 97 spits, Bronson bearings. I don’t know how to post pictures but I got it up on my eBay. Happy to sell it through slap if you PM me and I’ll knock a lil $ off.
Tbh I can’t get along with this board. The tail is just insane and that is coming from someone that loves weird ass board shapes… kudos to all the brothers n sisters that can skate these SOBs. https://www.ebay.com/itm/186893888152?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=chlXX5kSSaW&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=chlXX5kSSaW&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

We have a Classifieds Section but here is a pic of your beemer

Sick looking Beemer. I'm sad you're selling it.

Side note, Krooked is dropping a rad looking pair of new Beemers on Skate Shop Day.

Any one running 169s on the Baby Beamer? Or should use this as an excuse to order a set of 9.5 Slappys or Ace 77s...

169s sit flush on the Baby Beamer, wouldn't go wider.

I don't think is not beamer, but

Agreed. I set mine up with 215s and it hot rodded like crazy. Swapped them for Ace 66s and that’s been perfect for me (though I’m also running 58mm Radial fulls)

Spacecase · « **Reply #65 on:** January 24, 2025, 04:46:52 PM »

Thanks for the advice, here it is with 169s and 55mm lock in fulls

I have Ace 77 on mine, when skating you can't see the wheels looking down with those little 53 bones, and 60 Anderson nanos. I can actually measure it if you want.

Spacecase · « **Reply #68 on:** January 25, 2025, 10:44:06 AM »

The Baby Beamer is roughly 9.25 over the trucks, 169s with a wider wheel work well but I can see 77s or 9.5s being awesome as well.

Took it out for a quick hour sesh this morning and its a really fun board, think i had the best time on the slappy curb outside the park.

Skookum · « **Reply #69 on:** January 26, 2025, 07:36:20 AM »

I think the baby Beamer is the one I need. The tail on the baby has a taper unlike the OG. On the OG beam I felt like I never knew where my back foot was.

Also thank you @too Frank to Fred for the the tech support.

set up a coupe with 215s awhile back, love it. Cut up some clear sweatpants grip for the top and it came out pretty nice I think...

There is no clear grip?

Grabbed a SSD Beamer today. Stoked to set it up! Ordered some 215s. Biggest trucks I have on hand are 9”. Thinking about seeing how insane they feel on the Beamer…

They do taper a bit more than you expect, I’m riding a baby Beamer which is 10.2” wide or something and my 10” trucks were hot rodding like crazy. 9” actually work way better so it probably won’t be so bad on a full size. But I’m also running 58mm radial fulls which help make up the size difference.

I also grabbed an SSD Beamer but my Indy 215s are currently on my horse pill so it may be a bit before I move them over

Yeah I’m going to try it until my 215s come. I mean why the hell not? Very stoked on my first Beamer.

Edit: They don’t look too psycho.

Burton Ernie · « **Reply #76 on:** February 15, 2025, 08:02:58 PM »

What does it mean for trucks to hot-rod? I got 215s o my Beamer coupe with no risers and 51ish wheels. I would like to know if I’m hot rodding haha

The SSD beamers are sick with the pearl paint. Gotta see em in person.

It just means your wheels are showing a bit when you look down on the board.

Still got a set if anyone is looking. A little bit less than what other shops are charging as well.

ah yeah in that case I might as well be Rat Fink with the 215s on the coupe. It is kinda wild to look down at.

BartHarleyJarvis · « **Reply #82 on:** February 16, 2025, 06:36:48 PM »

So how’s everyone planning on gripping their beamers?? Honestly the top graphic is so good I think I’m just going to go clear grip. Not sure how the white ones look but the black pearlescent on top is great and the rails are dipped white too. I hate to cover it up. I *almost* hate to skate it….. almost.

Too Frank To Fred · « **Reply #83 on:** February 16, 2025, 07:48:22 PM »

Kinda Jelly of all your Beemers, especially now that Ace make an 88...

The ones that came out yesterday look sick. Enjoy and post some pics/ footie. I love seeing these things being used.

BartHarleyJarvis · « **Reply #84 on:** February 27, 2025, 11:03:29 AM »

Big Board Little Board

Only had half a sheet of clear Mob and half a sheet of Black Mob and was just barely able to make it work. Should look better once it's skated a bit. Full size beamer is significantly larger than the Baby Beamer and the shape is noticeable different, specifically the tail is a lot squarer and it's much fuller over the front truck. Still very flat. Can't wait to get on it this weekend.

Big shout out to @BartHarleyJarvis for this Baby Beamer. Took it out for a solid sesh yesterday, it’s perfect for making the weird little park by my house more fun which was the use case I had in mind.

Currently running 77s and 60mm x99s, but may swap to 93 F4s.

Lou Strux · « **Reply #86 on:** March 05, 2025, 12:07:46 AM »

Shout out BHJ on the stunner grip job.
Seent Barker at the spot, riding a full size beemer like it was 8.5 popsicle & made me question just how important the equipment actually is in so many of our cases.
Seems that when you’re good enough, a 2x4 will do (see: Chico Brenes) & when you’re not, it’s probably the fault of the pivot cup or some shit.
Had me rethinking what I thought I knew.

I've seen what this man can do on a board, pray for this beamer. It's about to get ripped.
