Extra stuff: My seatpost, is the orignial hoffman one that i cut down to 3 1/2 inches in length to save weight, and my fork is off of a mongoose wild card, that i cut the 990 mounts off of. I had to use it cause my orignal fork and front rim got screwed up when my bike got ran over by a car. Im gonna be picking up, an Odyssey Race fork, Skim Milk Bars, Thomson Seat post, and some chain tensioners for my birthday. Maybe once i get my new job, ill pick up some Hazard lites laced to 7ka rims.

FireTeamCharlie 03-01-07 03:08 PM

FireTeamCharlie 03-01-07 08:03 PM

first off, bummer that your bike got ran over. second, imo i would recommend you save your money and don't get a thomson for the bmx. ESPECIALLY if you plan to cut it. if you're a weight weenie get a macneil (or other "pivotal system") seat and seatpost combo. otherwise just go with a traditional seatpost. next, i think you mean "hazard" hubs. i've never heard of a "hazard light" hub.

Saw the vintage ones--very nice! At first I thought the bike in your photo here was a mixte (hey, it was at the back of a dark garage, 'kay?) and just didn't think that quite fit in--unless it was a significant other bike :p . After all, I've got uh, four of the things myself....But now I see it is a BMX bike...cool...

V-Brakes are so good when you set them up right.

premiumbmx2005 03-03-07 09:32 AM

I have brakes on my DYNO like the one's that are on that Scwhinn. They aren't regular V-brakes.
