in all seirousness what is the difference i kno chrome is a metal coating sorta but is cromo short for cromoly

ouch life and everything huh?

Yes.

learn to spell.

Shouldn't you know basic things like frame materials since you've been riding since 1995?

Okay.

i was 5 in 1995 and i wasnt really hard core back then and all i miss read something that is what started it but any way who thinks they could break the new Ti grim reaper frame from eastern weighing 2.6 pounds

Wow. Your amazing. Riding bikes since you were 5. Everyone has "rode" bikes since that age... it is another thing to "ride" bikes. No one cares about the new eastern frame because no one in their right minds (besides a racer) would really even think about buying it because of it's price and lack of integrity.

Cro-mo is an alloy, specifically, steel with a better strength to weight ratio than the cheap steel pipe of many lower-priced bikes.

Chroming is a multi-step process of plating metals, involving nickel and possibly brass, if I recall correctly.

[edit] You can have chromed high-ten. Mongoose was know for nickel plating, like a proper pimp's gat.

proper pimp's gat...i laughed

whaaa?

Back in the day, every pimp had a chrome or nickel .38 revolver. Now it's the gold plated Desert Eagle.

Gotcha.

Kinda dirty. Is that an Aitken seat?

Looks like you had your camera in "Night" mode.

If I brought that bike in that house with all that dirt on it, I don't think I would find it in my garage in the morning...

Your parents sound so harsh....

That's because they are... my mom always seems to have something to complain about, meanwhile, she sits around the house and does nothing all day (she doesn't even have a job).

That's what moms are best at, they don't even have to use their brain when they want to complain about stuff, just open their mouth and a steady stream of *****ing comes out automatically.

and breath that reeks of alcohol

hahaha

My wife works full time, and keeps the house spotless, with the exception of my office.

Lucky bastard. If only all mothers were like your wife... your wife rides too doesn't she?

Don't forget you came out of something not unlike that thing called "mom."
