here's just a thread to brag about your bike.

I have a Standard Cashius with some nice parts. Like Alex Triple Wall rims, Casket Stem, Demolition Pegs, Standard Sprocket and other stuff.

I have been riding since October and i can already get on a top cup grind and almost 180 off of stuff(can't fakie that well)


Well what kind of bikes and trick you guys got?

Marinoni Leggero with Campagnolo Daytona 10-speed, 1997 Specialized S-Works M2 MTB with XT/XTR and Manitou SX-Ti fork, 1992 Specialized Rockhopper used as a city bike/commuter... A couple of sets of wheels... I have my eye on a cyclocross bike, but not until next year...

Cool, in my school there's only one cruiser, but he's cool, he use to ride Street on a BMX but n/ was good, everyone said he was ment for speed not power, so now he races 24"

I ride a freestyle with a fixed gear for circus tricks. My only interesting one is to jam my foot behind the fork to do a wheelie stand (for 1/8 of one second).

For shopping and such, a Bike Totaal BT City Flash (ooh, ooh) city bike with Sachs Torpedo three speed hub & drum brakes, lights, locks, racks, Shimano 324 pedals (and their sandals when it is warm enough, otherwise sneaks), and a Sigma cordless computer. The bike is built by Gazelle for the huge marketing conglomerate - over 220 stores - called Bike Totaal.

For fun, a Vittorio custom steel softened race frame with Centaur 3x9 gruppo and ErgoBrain 10, TTT stem and bar, Ambrosio wheels, etc.

And I do mean fun. :D

Cheers...Gary

Are we talking BMX or Road bikes? I moved this to the BMX forum just now, after a few roadie posts... Jay, to keep confusion down, you may want to post in the BMX forum next time ;)
