Yeah, I kind of forgot about that. That finishes it then. When I have the money, I'm getting the Ody Classic Dirts in white. Right now, I'm about $30-40 short.

You know what, screw it. I'm buying new bars first. Mine are only 25" wide and I can't stand them. I'm probably going to get Slam XLT's, Demolition PA's, or Odyssey Aaron Space bars.

Yeah I think I'm just going to get whatever big bars I can that the LBS has in white. I don't feel like waiting and having to ride my midget bars any longer. If they don't have any in white, I'll get black ones and have my dad powdercoat them.

Here's my '02 MongoosePro I've posted before. Just got new Mirraco M3 grips, anyone else have them? My friend had them and they got beat up pretty fast, but he's hard on them and anything beats my old stock grips and ends.... Still gets it's fair share of riding around town, deffinetely doesn't just sit.

Race bike. Pretty much all stock except bars, cranks, and seat.

Yeah, I would definitely get new tires. And are you actually going to run clipless pedals? How does it feel?

For sure, tires are 1st on my list I just don't have the cash at the moment. Yea I love clipless. I couldn't do it without em. The only part I don't like is if I fall and can't get clipped out. (did that trying to manuel lol)

Haha yeah that happens on occasion. You'll get used to learning how to unclip when your falling. They look like Times though so they're easy to unclip. I have them too.
