It's got colour where it should, and it would definetly get painted eventually.
why would you buy a brand new bike and then paint it

Maybe he wants his components specific colors that they do not come in initially... Just a thought.
minichamp31
06-19-07, 02:18 PM
Fuzzy, You wouldn't need to paint it anyhow, 'cause the frame(main part of a bike) is a color.
i guess so FIT but it seems that most parts come in multiple colors but i guess if he wants the certain color then he would have to paint it

my dream bike is most of my current parts plus a tree spline drive sprocket, trailking pedals, and a new chain. a new frame is debatable.

Way too light for me. My frame need to be a bit over 5 pounds or I feel I'd destroy it.

That thing is so gross looking and low slung. If you run the seat too low, i bet it'll hit the tire!
I'm sure it'll be a nice frame, but it looks ugly.
R hub: Profile mini ss 14mm 9t driver 48h.
The Mini SS doesn't come in 48h, only 36h. You'd have to get the SS.

question. what is spline and what does it do?
FitRider 921
06-22-07, 10:32 AM
That Fly frame with the removable brake lugs sounds so cool. Maybe other companies will start doing it as well as a good amount of BMX riders do not use brakes.
FuzzyRyder
06-22-07, 11:02 AM
Most companies simply give you the option of their frame comming with or without brake mounts. And if you really care its not like its a big deal to chop some brake mounts off.
FitRider 921
06-22-07, 12:06 PM
Most companies don't give that option- only some. I really like the Subrosa Pandora frame.

my friend just go a white pandora with no brake lug, he put it on a bike with all black parts. It looks amazing.

minichamp31
06-22-07, 10:23 PM
It's when you don't need that little hole in the sprocket for the cranks to "hook" onto. The sprocket goes just before the cranks like a washer would. I think.

I think it looks really nice, I love low slung frames
The brake idea gives me the option of sticking brakes on if i want or maintaining that oh so clean look of lugless frames.
The hub is a dream hub haha. It's what i'd want

Thank you. It's not really much of a dream bike, it's just the bike that I probably will eventually have. If it were a dream bike, my rear hub would be a Profile and my pedals would be different.
