Laugh out loud.

Not going to lie though, i'd ride one of their frames if it was free or super cheap.

One of the people i ride with got one of the first Grim Reapers when it came out, and then Eastern pulled them all back to fix something, meanwhile they sent him a brand new Dragon frame to ride and ended up letting him keep it after he got his new Grim back. Good warranty.

That bike looks pretty decent. It would look even better with different grips and no brakes. The Primo pedals are terrible.

When i rode my friend's bike (who coincidently killed his Animal Hamiltons) they didn't feel grippy at all. And we were at the skatepark, not even the muddy trails.

I love my Wellgo Mg52's. They seem to be perfect.

They don't suck, they just aren't as grippy.

It's because they have NASCAR technology (AutoCAD) that allows them to sell stupid products to stupid people, without issue.
