I think you're just crazy. I rode this kids Flow street (the brakeless one) and it felt like 100% custom, dialed, out of the box stock. Really smooth and nice. Knock on wood if i ever had my bike stolen, i'd get the trail version and some new Slams, and i'd be back in action.

Speaking of Slams, I'm buying some cut ones from a friend for $21.50. They are a bright yellow.

I'm happy now. You'll love them, especially if they are cut to like 24-25ish.

Yeah, I hope I like them... hopefully they will save my wrists. I think they are cut quite a bit, maybe even more than I like. I haven't seen them in a while.

Shush. Anything is better than my stock bars. I got them pretty cheap.

Everything sucks compared to Slams.

EDIT: I cannot believe I said that.

The bars just hurt my wrists and I need something with more rise.

True that.

The rise helps your back.

That's cute. Man if your parents don't park their cars in your garage you should build ramps in there!

I have a big garage, with heat and ac (it used to be a room with fake doors before the people before us converted it) but my parents park in it. Otherwise, i'd be Mat Berringering it.

Bikes: Nishiki Nut! International, Pro, Olympic 12, Sport mixte, and others too numerous to mention.

So how long are you going to be on the crutches? Is there a cast?
