Going to pick up some brakes today at my LBS, won't be fly though. Gonna probably be getting some white demolition's.
I'm not exactly sure on the total because I had to order from a few different places. Over $1600 though. Worth every penny.

That wheel can be yours...for a mere $255. Custom built from Flatlandfuel.com
Since I got the Hazard's, I have no need for the Sun Lite's it came with. Anybody wanna trade for something? The rear is a LHD.

Light bikes < Medium weight bikes.
Why compromise the strength of your bike to save weight. Go to the gym
By the way wtp, just noticed your avatar. I have that album, In flames are great

Alot of times, if you know what you are doing and are smooth you aren't compromising any strength.
