What happened to being over the whole "5 pound" phase?

What spokes do you have if you are ravaging them like that?

Wow. It sucks to be you. The most expensive frames (besides the ti grim reaper) is like $330.

Dammit, how much do Kinks cost over there? They're like £400 here! (about $750?)

Wow. $329.95 my friend, for the 06 Kink Freebird

eightdip 01-03-07 05:22 PM

Jeez, cost more in Pounds than it does in Dollers

eightdip 01-05-07 09:43 AM

It does matter! You can't copy me! :p


And i wouldn't get a WTP frame. If i had to pick another frame that wasnt the one i had right now (Solid, you probly know...) I would get a T1 Garret Byrnes(and have them not weld on those cs grind plate things.) or Take Ivy.

If it cracks call FBM and they would replace it. But, for an Auto Pilot to crack you'd have to do something nuts. I have seen huge drops and gaps on them and nothing happens. So, I can't imagine if a flip-whip at 15ft didn't do it what would.

premiumbmx2005 01-05-07 02:06 PM

i would rather my frame not crack at all than have to replace it (which probally wouldnt be free, either).

and tom from empire said himself that hes seen a lot of fbms crack.

Agreed. You're on a roll with me agreeing with you.

eightdip 01-05-07 05:16 PM

Good job i'm getting a t1 then. Premium must be happy

premiumbmx2005 01-05-07 08:22 PM

very much so

irimi 01-06-07 07:27 PM

Light, Strong, Cheap

Pick two.

wethepeople 01-06-07 08:01 PM

[gunz]I'll pick all three and get the Sunday![/gunz]

premiumbmx2005 01-06-07 09:01 PM

i choose light and cheap

wethepeople 01-06-07 09:03 PM

Strong and cheap=heavy.
Light and cheap=gonna snap.
Light and strong=not cheap.

light and strong and cheap=sunday, right guys?

MadMan2k 01-06-07 09:20 PM

'heavy' by today's standards is still pretty light compared to the bikes from the 90s or just a couple years ago. I think with nice parts, even without getting any titanium or super light stuff, a bike would add up to like 25lb.

wethepeople 01-06-07 09:31 PM

Mine is right around there.

premiumbmx2005 01-06-07 10:08 PM

mines like 32 haha

Is this "bag on Gunz" week? A Sunday! is not quite cheap... I am not a rich bag of ****** like that kid with the ti grim reaper and all those amazing and titanium parts. With that being said, the frame is expensive... for me.

premiumbmx2005 01-06-07 10:50 PM
