Well my parents have decided that its not my descision to spend my own money from my own bank account to buy my new frame and wheel, so its probly not going to happen soon.

Anyways, in the meantime, what color should i paint my current frame, because the paintjob it has now is horrible. And my back is also bothering me, so im taking a day or two off riding to let it rest, therefore making me bored.

Also, any tips on how to bribe my parents?

The only problem is that i got the back account when i was like 7 so its under both me and my moms name, so i cant make withdraws without her present.

I have almost tripple the money i need, so its not like i would be emptying my bank account...

BLAH! This sucks.

I like polls, so vote for your color, haha.

Im not spending all my money either, it wouldnt really even make a dent in my bank account, considering each week i make around $15 plus other jobs like house and baby sitting...

$600 is how much it would cost for my frame, wheel and sprocket.

I have at least $2000

Thats gay. Just whine and complain and cry and throw big fits about it until they let you. And for the colour, do a fade thing like black into lime green or some other bright colour. My old frame was black into neon orange. Although the fadingness wasn't the best, only the headtube and about 4 or 5 inchest past was black.

Haha, good luck getting to VA from England...

Im thinking some sort of green fade to another shade of green.

My freind wants me to paint it maroon so it can match his Sputnic frame...

Premium, I was just scouting around and saw a pretty cheap frame you might like on staffs... the Felt Sheriff frames actually does not look that bad, and it comes with an integrated headset and bb. It does however have gyro tabs (which you could cut off if you really want to), and can only run 30-11 gearing. If those two things don't bother you, then it looks very good for the price.

09-27-06, 08:59 PM
That's not half bad. Which one? And what exactly do you mean by "hooked up"? Does that mean: for free, good deal, or just getting one at the normal price?

premiumbmx2005
09-28-06, 12:21 PM

Yes, we could, but he still needs a back wheel (if i give you my current one, you have to give me the $5, haha, and you have to give him your current wheel) and your bars, and i have a stem and seat/post and a few chains.

Do you still have your:
se forks from Mat?
and
we need a front wheel.

mude
09-29-06, 01:17 PM
i have a bad front wheel
i dont want your back wheel.
i'll give you a few bucks for you S&M bars (old ones) and give josh my old/new poverty ones
and we pretty much have a biek for him

Take the money and put it in a money market, if you're not gonna spend it you might as well make some money on interest. Most money markets are paying 5% or more now so you'd make some decent change.

And paint the frame pink, chicks love pink.

09-29-06, 08:09 PM
money market?

Stock market maybe? That still makes no sense though.

Haha, the biketopia sticker looks good on the forks, since it blends in.
But they arent your trails either, so im sure if you stole it youd take it off.
But your not going to steal it because you cant ride because you said you were crippled and you live in NY, and if you did i would probly sterilize your with some sort of knife and or kill your entire family right in front or your eyes.

Anyways....

Yeah, we should have.
How about Tuesday, and maybe Monday?

I have to say, that was one of the most graphic things anyone has ever said to me. I think the inability to walk factors in a bit more than living in New York. Also, unfortunately for me, I happen to be a good person and can honestly say I have never stolen anything in my life.

Haha.

The only thing ive stolen is guest passes to the skatepark.
And maybe a pencil or two from someone at school.

I wouldn't mind some passes to a skatepark. I kinda have never gone to one. I usually make sure to give pencils back, but sometimes I do forget. I don't consider that stealing.
