[photothug123]

o crap here we go kids, is everyone ready to go on a shopping spree. i just found out about a bike shop from a friend, over the phone sounds like he can get me whatever i want, and beat dans comp by a lot. i was ganna go with the intragel bel air but he says he can put me together a hell of alot better bike for less.
from what i can remember, he has a cory matinez fedral fram. eastern ultra light forks. ummmm, any chain wheel i want. and a ton of other we the people stuff marked down cause his holder lost his partners and it all has to be sold sooon!
and i get it
so can we all make suggestions on some good parts to ahve in mind while making this bike into a complete

and does anyone know about that t-nez frame and ultralight fork

[photothug123]

o and theres a fot flow front wheel and a bel air rear wheel hes got for me

[KinetikBiker]

The Federal frame is nice.

Stay away from any product by Eastern with the words light involved.

The Fit flow front wheels are just Sun rims and sun hubs. Nothing too special.

Stick with the Integral Bel Air or any one of the Fit Flow's.

[photothug123]

ok, so i should stick with the fedaral frame. stay away from the light stuff cause it probly wont hold. anything else i should know about before spending 600-700 bucks on a costome bike

[Fed3ral]

I do beleive what Kinetik is trying to say is "Just get the Bel Air or Fit Flow" as he mentioned. +1 to his idea.

[photothug123]

ok
well the bel air doesnt come out for another 4 weeks

word.

[KinetikBiker]

Then either wait for it, or get a one of the Fit Flow's.

[photothug123]

but why not make a costom bike
i dont understand, if anyone would have a chance at making a costom set up why wouldnt they do it.

[FitRider 921]

The Bel-Air pretty much is already custom. Just get the Bel-Air. It's more than worth it.

See what happens when a 9 year old gets on the internet?

[FitRider 921]

See what happens when you give a mouse a cookie?

[photothug123]

the dude i was talking to says the intragal has good compnets. but says the frame is poor.
i UNDERSTAND the intragel is a good bike, im not saying it isnt. i just might go with that. im looking for alternitives

[FitRider 921]

the frame is not poor... he is just trying to make you spend more money... and also, you are not an OG.

[photothug123]

haha
i know
i just ****in felt like making something. so yeh

What do they teach in English classes these days?

I gather spelling is no longer taught, for starters :D .

Nor is grammar.

[gnr rocker]

Actually they stopped teaching spelling in my school district. they feel that it is not "important"

But you were the rebel, and had to go ahead and learn spelling and grammar anyway. Dang kids.

[eightdip]

Haha my italian teacher calls herself a rebel for listening to opera music.

[new_dharma]

What do they teach in English classes these days?

--how to fill out an application at McDonalds
--how to fill out an application at Wal-Mart
(filling out job applications)

teaching begins at home and parents are not reading to their children...they use the TV as a baby-sitter...and that doesn't help a child learn!

...i'll step off my soapbox

[FitRider 921]

Then get the Integral and a new frame.

It's your money you can waste it if you want. But i would 'bet the farm' you wouldn't have any trouble with that stock frame. Gunz is right he's just trying to get you to buy more stuff.

[FitRider 921]

Gunz is right he's just trying to get you to buy more stuff.

[photothug123]

well i c what u guys are saying to where he wants me to spend more money. but heres the thing. he just lost his we the people holder and i think federal. 2 holders of some kind. so he has a ton of stuff marked alomost 20-50% off because he has to get rid of it. well lets say he can beat dans comp on anything.
so i think im still ganna stick with the bel air to be safe, but im going into his shop today. if i can get a new complete buy scratch for less would it be safe. its a lot of wethe people stuff, federal. and other componets arent too much of a difference.
im just trying to make a good purchase

Word. I don't speak jibberish.

[photothug123]

dammit i just lost my last post
now i ave to rewrite it so its ganna be short
and i agree with what u mean on the frame and how hes trying to get me to buy more stuff. im probly going with the 07 bel air anyways


so he lost 2 of his holders of i think federal and somebody else. he needs to get rid of it quick, so basically its all 20-50% off
he can beat any product on dans comp by a chunk of money, and soo i dont see how i cant build a better bike for less money with all that coming into play

im just trying to make the best purchase possible

[FitRider 921]

Do you speak English?

[photothug123]

nvm
im an idiot
i didnt mean to type that again
ill take the og thing off
i didnt mean to make anybody mad
haha, i didnt think it was offensive

[FitRider 921]

You wrote the same thing a few times. Just go with the Bel-Air and pick up on your grammar studies.

[MadMan2k]

Do whatever you want. You're the one who's going to be riding the bike, not us. Get what makes you happy, but keep in mind that when people recommend a product, there's usually a reason for that, and if there's one product that everyone recommends, there's usually a big reason for that.

For instance, Odyssey Jim C. pedals.

[FitRider 921]

Word to ya muther.

[eightdip]

And to your brother

[MadMan2k]

From anotha motha?

[photothug123]

ok
well heres what i got picked out, this frame for 250$ http://www.danscomp.com/211471.php

odessey forks for 50$, yes its used. but honestly who has had that many problems with a fork. eastern bars for 50$ an animal stem for 50$. odessey 7k backwheel with yellow spokes and a shadow consperisy hub. and a decent front wheel. and we the people cranks. 25 t chain wheel
dawg its ganna be sick!!!!!

be jelous ya all

[photothug123]

and its all still ganna be under 700
hahaha
he garenteed it under 700 since im buying a complete from him

[MadMan2k]

Nice. I don't know about the wave thing on the tubes of that new Sunday frame though. Looks pretty ugly in pictures, but if it really does make it stronger I guess it's fine.

[eightdip]

Eastern Bars = No no

Shadow Hub = BIG no no

[photothug123]

why no to the shadow hub?
and i have some other odesy bars i can go with also.

[photothug123]

theres another wheel set i can go with for the back
its heavy but its quite heavy
which just might be worthet
yeh u help me make the decision im ganna go with the heavy! but sturdy one

[MadMan2k]

its heavy but its quite heavy

Damn, there's a trade-off if I've ever seen one.

[East Hill]

Well, if you're going to go for heavy, you might as well have it be heavy.

East Hill

[KinetikBiker]

why no to the shadow hub?
Mine has given me nothing but trouble. Stick with Primo or Profile. Odyssey is ok too.

True that.

[FitRider 921]

I think I'm reading another language.

[eightdip]

What 'heavy' wheel is it?

[photothug123]

Damn, there's a trade-off if I've ever seen one.

i meant to say it is stronger but heavier, whic most ppl can figure out i know.
its the intragal. http://www.danscomp.com/402078.php?cat=PARTS
