all my eastern components are holding up really well. the thing with the coaster is that they are really the only decent coaster on the market and they are the same weight as a stock hazard.

I really like my eastern cranks no clicking or noise whatsoever. I am going to put a Ti spindle in them soon. and then i will get some sunday forks. and some magnesium pedals and my bike will weigh about 10.9kg or 24lbs-ish and i will be killing it.

And i also might be selling my frame for frame by a brand called "Tempered Bikes".

That's not white. It's putty. At least that's what Haro's catalog called my X3 which was that color.

I love my white frame. But i can't wait to get it powdercoated green.
