One of the people I know welded underwater for a while, but he couldn't take the stresses and just became a metal worker. It's a lot harder then most people think.
Also, four of my buddies just got their C-Ticket, makes me look bad

Those are too far away for me to go to, so those are no good.

Crappy pic of the MacNeil as it sits now. I'll get better pics later when it isn't on my repair stand.

I now dislike your bike, just because of the slams. Kinetik is going to have a fit.

I want some of those bars now. Except I think I might bend them, I throw my bike pretty often, either on purpose or by accident, and shorter bars = less leverage to bend...

Get the XLT's, I doubt you will bend them.

I love it WTP!
Allthought it would be cooler if they were chrome and not silver. Damn you S&M!
Ride them uncut for a few weeks and you'll get hooked like me and never want to cut them.
MadMan- I bet you would't have any trouble at all. And if you do, they have a great warranty program thingy. Word.

How do you like the Martinez grips? I hear they're like pop cans on the bars they're so thick.

Cutting stuff isn't bikeguide. I have no problem with people cutting bars, seatposts, grips, pegs and seatubes or even triming your dropouts down a bit. Although i prefer not to do it, except the grips.

Yeah, I think I'm going to trim my axles when I have some time to spare. I just want it to look cleaner.

I've felt like trimming my axles, but I never know if I'm going to feel like getting 2 more pegs and putting them all on so I haven't done it yet. If I build up a new bike next year it'll be pegless so I'll cut them and probably run pegs on this one if it's still in one piece.
