I guess it was too much to expect a ****up willing to put a new wheel on so that he could do barspins to think about what other implications that have. For that I am sorry.
good god.. okay. Reasons for upgrading to the rush from the bowery for me were simple. I got the bike even though it wasnt exactly right for me because it was cheap. I had issues with pedal strike on the giant. I never really got comfortable with it and by going with a track frame, I wouldnt have to worry about it unless I was really really leaning (higher bottom bracket). With the Rush my positioning and posture is better. The steeper head tube combined with the 650 front put me forward over the bike more. I have short legs so going with a 53 would be better for standover, but not for reach. So I went with the 55. Stand over was sort of an issue at this point, but the 650 also helped in that area. The steeper seat tube is another plus for getting better posture. In the bowery I felt like I was riding farther back and more upright. The fork was something that could have been adapted to either frame, but I went from a 44 to a 38 rake. My goal was to get the best of both worlds. I like to ride and I like to do tricks. There were a few options available, I went with the Rush.
quit being such a hater. Why are you in this thread anyways? Just to talk ****? Id find your threads and come argue with you about **** youre doing if I felt like wasting my life away.
