Thank you peabodypride, I'm glad I have something you like By the way I live in Reading, any good rides down there?

frankenmike, my bass is just a $400 Epiphone nothing special, but yes it is also electric with a 5 band eq. It has uneven frets that I never took care of so it buzzes quite a bit when played on the wire.

Notice how most of the positive commenters somehow feel the need to post their full names. Plus they all write with some cheesy overzealousness. Makes me think that these guys are all the same person.

I just think it looks awful with that frame.

Honestly though, who cares what any of us think? You like it, ride the hell out of it, and **** what everyone else thinks.

Sweet. Any particular parts you're looking at? I'm just curious as to what you're going to be racing on.

I'm sorry, I'm not sure that is posuer, I think it's Ghetto...HUGE difference. Ghetto is doing something dumb with stuff you have because that's all you can afford, but it works. Poseur is more daddy gives me his credit card look at this "pista" bike I bought! Like the pink aerospoke! Maybe we should have a separate Ghetto thread.

jackass because you could buy a cheapo $5 seat and post on there and ditch the ridiculous banana seat that puts the rider way back over the rear wheel and probably cost the same as a less idiotic seat. probably something suitable in the free box at any lbs.

also flipping the bars costs $0

Nah that bike would look all sorts of wrong with the bars flipped over.
If it had some ape hangers or bmx bars I would so rock that thing hard.
