A friend of mine cracked the frame on his Sugar-2 while attempting a jump. Fisher sent him a replacement Sugar-1 frame but it was in "bling-bling" gold.

I've done a lot of jumping on the Sugar.. I can't wait for it to crack...I so want a new frame! Just kidding. I am really pleased with this bike... it does what it's meant to do, and if I want to go real jumping, well, I have a Turner DHR for that!

The lawn chair is my favourite part of that picture. I once saw someone carry a 7-foot ladder in their hitch-rack. it was one of those that clamps to the top-tube so the person just had it clamping one of the rungs. There were various other things held/strapped to the rack too... none of which were bike related however.

Hmm... is that direct from Giant? I know they made a special edition gold TCR bike. I was wondering if they were going to extend the concept to their MTB lineup.

If I see you while I'm out in CO you'll have to let me ride your bike for a round or so.. Though I think you are much taller than me I don't know if that will work out. I ride a 18.5 to 19 frame.

if you want bling, look no farther than good ol' campagnolo.

campy bmx crank :


they made the cranks, pedals, and hubs in both blue and gold anodized, but i can only find pictures of the cranks.

bling enough for you?

No Offence thats an ugly set of cranks. Raceface has a gold looking crank arm as well (on the holeshot above I think)...

Chris King makes hubs of multiple colours too...gold I believe is one of the top sellers
