I have a deep hatred and distrust of that front wheel, lacing a 32hole 6 bolt xt disc hub to a sun mtx rim.

Between $350 and $450, depending on what model you want. The lock out option is great!

Gotta tension and true it tomorrow when I get a spoke wrench.

I liked it because it was nice and simple. I had an Odyssey Elementary stem before but it was just to complicated, nice and light though. I ended up selling it and "downgrading" to this one, which I'm actually running upside down .

I was actually referring to a post that has since been deleted for some really weird reason, of a green and white WTP, with an awesome stem.
But you have a cool BMX though, almost makes me want to buy a 20.
Wait, no, i want a 20.
