Remember a Poverty G-ride isn't the best frame/fork/stem combo. But, the rest is dcent.

Ok i bought it, Its a older haro frame. He cut the brakes. Im not sure what frame because he spray painted it black. I also know its a gyro, im trying to get ride of the gyro part, you know like below the headset that sticks out and connects the wires. How can i get that out, do i have to take the top part apart, or can i just like hit it off or something? I like it alot, its really light and i like the components. Its bassically like my project bike to get to know all the parts of a bmx, and have fun fixing it up. I bought it for $40. Ill get some pics up later. Someone please answer my question fast im working on it right now.
Thank You,
Pantelis

Omg...People call me that too though lol. Ok I bought the bike and it use to have Gyro Brakes but he cut them. And now you know how there is those 2 big pieces between the headset and the stem im pretty sure between the headset and the stem. Im wondering how i can get those off, and if i have to take off my handlebars, and stem and all that and have to put like spacers, or if i can just get them off a different way with out taking that part apart.
Now can you answer my question
