all the cranks with splines are crap, I seen so many broken cranks I prefer the 19mm square spindles over the spline to difficult to remove I seen a many riders banging the crap out them in order to replace the crank arms.

Haha. I just got a bike today, i'll post pictures eventually.

Like a 2005 or 2004 Haro Backtrail X3, like this brownish goldish color, i took off the brake's since it was gyro, and i got a new seat i don't know what it is, my friend gave it to me. I traded it for my 16.

There's a whole bc a few pages back, but I swapped out the stem for a green odyssey elementary and added raw profiles with an FSA Ti spindle. It weighed in at 23.7 pounds making it the lightest cruiser in my class for now. Stock it was 27.8 lbs.
