Word.

I ended up ripping part of my purple Ed's right where my palm goes, so now when my hands sweat they get throttly. So i'll be getting some new black ones soon. I think it'll look better.

FitRider 921 08-31-07 09:50 AM

Haha. I never had a problem with my Edwins. I never had a hole in either pair of mine. But yeah, black would look a whole lot better for your bike. Plus, you can't have my purple grips. They are mine. :p

Nice bike. I think the stickers, and color's sort-of ruin it. My opinion though. Nice bike.

FitRider 921 09-02-07 09:43 PM

The colors make it look pretty unique and different.

minichamp31 09-02-07 09:53 PM

Where's the red-and-white chain like in the other picture? It's definitely the coolest chain ever.

wds178 09-02-07 10:31 PM

I only painted that old chain like that because I knew I'd be replacing it when replaced the sprocket & driver to 30/11. It was fun, but a bit too gaudy. And I was bored on a rainy sunday.
And I like the stickers - The Club Homeboy & Freestylin' stickers are in the same spot as I had them on my bike back in 1987.

KinetikBiker 09-04-07 07:55 AM

WDS, i like the parts. But i can't really say that much for aesthetics.

wethepeople 09-04-07 05:10 PM

jonly 09-04-07 06:58 PM

lol @ trebuchet.
have you hit anything/one with it?

Lancerob2 09-04-07 07:16 PM

Hey wethepeople... You got any video links to a bike being thrown by that thing? :lol: (or a kitten, or my ex-wife, or her lawyer...)

wethepeople 09-04-07 07:52 PM

No, we were test firing it today in a feild, and now the home owners association is filing a police report because throwing water balloons and stuff makes it a weapon :rolleyes:

You might want to get rid of it sometime soon then. The last thing you want is George Bush knocking on your door and saying that there are "weapons of mass destruction" in your backyard.

wethepeople 09-04-07 08:56 PM

George Bush can [edited for kiddy goodness], he cant govern over the people in CANADA!

It's simple, I took the boom off. If the cops call it a trebuchet I ask how does my chin-up bar throw things?

You say that now. Last I checked, he's behind a whole bunch of things being done on the other side of the world...

Knowing that they are cops, they will still probably badger you until the whole thing is disassembled. It's like an underage kid having a gun with no barrel- there is still danger for others if it can be put together.
