New object of lust
 

I strolled into Bicycle Butler in Spokane the other day and was knocked between the eyes by this frame hanging up ('cept it was a red one):

I know, I know . . . it's not a mountain bike. But it's one of the other objects of my desires: a 24" BMX cruiser. And an FMF (Flying Machine Factory) to boot! I had no idea they made bike stuff (silly me :o ). What a way to tap back into my MX roots.

When Tim told me $150, the wheels started whirring in my head. I think my wife thought I'd lost my mind, getting so stoked about another hunk of metal to pour money into. Dang, I want one . . .

Very nice!!!!!


Don't you hate it when the wife is right???? ;)

Throw on a set of Profile Chromoly cranks, Chris King hubs and it'd be a sweet bike.

Or do what I did and buy a complete Haro and then swap the frame out and parts as you go. Complete Haro was only $285 (on sale) and I had a GT frame!

But then it wouldn't have the sexy FMF logo on it :D

Could I make it go faster by putting an FMF pipe on it?

I've got an FMF headset cap on my roadie that probably makes me a good 20-30 more hp at the pedal, and at least 30 more ft/lbs of torque at the rear wheel. ;-p
