I'd take it.. but the red spokes don't catch my fancy.

that brake setup looks so haggard

premiumbmx2005

are those fly brakes?/

Brian

Pink more your color?

FitRider 921

No. It just looks stupid in my opinion. If they are primo spokes, then they suck, if you spray-painted your spokes, then I would find a different color to spraypaint them if I were you... but then again, I am not you.

Brian

Black spokes for me.

premiumbmx2005

same...or white cause they look cool.

Beerman doesn't like my snowmobile. I don't care, at least I can ride in the winter. My daughter will probably ride my Backtrail X3 with me in the snow.

Yep, it is a fly brake but i need a new cable so ive got tape holding some of it together, not cool. Thats why it looks haggard. I'm not even sure what spokes they are, they just came with my wheel, i know they're not Primo but they definatly havent been spraypainted . I like the look of them myself which is the only thing that matters, not anyone elses opinion.

premiumbmx2005

you shouldnt have fly brakes on the seatstays; youd be better off with evolvers or something along those lines

eightdip

I know i shouldn't but i got them working sweet, better than any evolver i've used.

FitRider 921

That is one sick bike. Just fix your chain.

premiumbmx2005

2. loose chain
3. bars forward?
4. GIVE ME YOUR CRANKS!

wethepeople

5. I'll take the pedals.

FitRider 921

they look dope.

FuzzyRyder

Primo and demolition are the only companies with coloured spokes. and demolition just released theirs not too long ago. Plus its a primo hub, and rim? so they probabally are primo spokes. As for spokes sucking. When are you even going to notice that they suck. They are probabaly better then most spokes that come stock on completes, and I'm sure you havent had a problem with your spokes have you guns? I have never snapped a spoke, and unless you are a complete sketch bag, or you get things stuck in your wheels often its pretty hard to do. There are obviously better choices like DT swiss and marwi. but the only time your going to notice which spokes are really better, which is probably a minimal difference is when you are lacing the wheel. Once it's built it should be fine.

FitRider 921

I think you are on a bit of a warpath.

FuzzyRyder

Warpath? wtf?:S

Hassan347

Hadn't gotten a chance to get the chain situated at that point did that earlier to day and now it's nice a tight, Bars are not forward they are at my preferred position im building up an new front wheel at the moment i just took a front wheel from my basement that wasn't on my other bike.

cranks = the Fly's and they are teh ****

thanks alot for the compliments everyone

FitRider 921

And I would rather have spokes that come stock than primo spokes.

FitRider 921

I want those cranks. I'd honestly much rather have the fly cranks than the wombolts... there's been a bit of trouble with the wombolts with one of the bolts. (hinge bolt possibly... I dont remember)

FuzzyRyder

Hinge bolt? The wombolts only have one bolt. Hence the name WOM BOLT = one bolt. I'd trust ody over fly anyday. And what do you have against primo spokes. Just cause a couple people said they are bad. They are spokes, how bad can they be. Colour is pimp.

FitRider 921

Yes, the one bolt they have is a bit screwy. I heard many people have had problems with them... spokes can be bad, just like any other part can be.

premiumbmx2005

i guess the anodizing on primo spokes make them get loose easier, but im only going by what i heard...i heard it a long time, btw.

i would rather the fly cranks. in my opinion they are designed better, and look better.
