Didn't you get an MBA cover not too long ago? Seems to me you're being a bit greedy.

^I did the weenie version of that jump. I was pwned on BF for being a n00bcake, but I still think it's better than going down the freaking roller. Also, you look like a beast.



Circa 1980 Weenie.


High contrast Weenie.


Weenie with weenie calves.

Well...it "appears" as if they're pretty-much bottoming out on the rim. If I took one corner with my tires that low...I'd roll them off the rim. (though I run 35-40psi) Us bigger guys need a little more support.

I run them at 35psi (their recommended pressure) and only weigh 160...

not sure why they look like that in the pic...my camera is also ridiculously blurry with any speed shots
