what is pointless? i take it you like dk bcycles? i like them too. my favorite is my hoffman ep. and taj from years ago.

[eightdip]

Learn to spell, and why the hell did you assume I liked dk? Actually, i'm not a fan but they do make alright value for money complete bikes. And get with the times, hoffman is sooo out of fashion

I think Macneil makes great frames, I think The Take make good frames, So does S&M.

Every mainstream and even some not so mainstream companys make good frames. It's just preferance.

Well apparently he's been a member since 2003. Shows how much he uses the forum still being a junior member after 3 years. Finally banned though i guess

[Brian]

I didn't even get to ban him, someone beat me to it.

Really nice and smooth. My only complaint is that the paint is kinda thin in some spots but ill be painting it soon anyways.

he wouldnt know; i stole it from him.
Haha, not unless you'd like to keep all your man parts you wont.

[premiumbmx2005]

make sure you paint it right. the last thing you want is another haggard camo job.

and for the 2nd part...i have nothing to say to that

[wethepeople]

Haha, kinetic is painting another bike :p.

[premiumbmx2005]

im thinking of painting my haggard frame...suggestions?

[wethepeople]

Orange like your pedals.


And i can paint pretty well if im trying. The reason my old frame looked like **** was because i didn't take it apart and didn't have enough paint of one color :)

If i paint my Solid, i'll be buying the paint just for that use, and it will be a desirable(sp?) color, probly a shade of green.

I just painted my helmet maroon, and it looks pretty good.

When I start riding again, I might paint my my bike... but that won't be for quite a while.

I'm getting my Macneil powdercoated this winter the same color as The Takes minty green.

Your bike would look totally sick if it had two nice chrome rims.

[wethepeople]

No worries, it's getting the front one the same as the back.

[wethepeople]

And the pic in the sig isnt the real color. The camera did some weird hippy bull**** and made it look good.

white is too easy to get dirty.

[KinetikBiker]

Not even.

I ride pretty much all trails and when its muddy my bike stays clean, i just wipe off the dirt when it dries. And the only thing ive done do it thats made it dirty was when i was trying no foot cans at Woodward i would sometimes kick my frame with my shoe leaving like a scuff on it, haha. But that comes off.

[premiumbmx2005]

when i was first learning them i would knee myself in the face and kick my hands..that trick was a ***** to learn

[eightdip]

I can can (haha) but i cant no foot can, any pointers?

Put your feet back on the pedals.

Thats my problem, haha.

I haven't gotten a good one back home or anywhere but the foam and resi.

[premiumbmx2005]

just throw your foot over the top-tube and take your other foot off with it, kick out, and bring them back over...thats more or less the easier part, the hard parts getting/not being afraid of putting your feet on the pedals.
