-If the bike looks lame with stickers, remove them.
-If you dont grind yet, take off the pegs while you learn to bunny hop(they weigh a ton).

-Remove front brakes unless you are riding flatland.

no way man. my bike doesnt need to be lighter, it already is super light.....something like 50 pounds so its ok.and i called up huffy today to see if i can get some better stickers for it. im going to get green and gold ones if i can.they said they would call me back. and im also thinking of switching my bike from having pedal brakes to the ones u pull with ur hand.
