i'm putting canti's on!!! damn with the disc's i'll update later with new pix if UPS ever decides to show up at the shop today!

i want the bike to basically look like its from 1992 but with all sweet new stuff! :love:

eventually i'll be building either a downhill or or slopestyle bike. but thats completely different

Calm down :) canti's are fine. Are you going to keep the tires non-aggressive?

jerseybmx 10-24-08 10:12 AM

i have multiple sets of tires.

SB8's are a good, grippy tire. They suck in moisture, but they grip like an octopus on dry / hard trail.
