Actually Scrod, thanks a lot, that picture really helped. I've been kinda laggin with experimenting with brake placement and have just been going on random rides brakeless (it's some scary SHlT for me). I tried that before, but my brake lever clamp was a bit too big, so I was having problems with leaving it on the curve. I think I'll just have to find a new one.

and where the hell do you find all these pictures? It looks like everything you say always has to come with a pic lol. However, it is helpful at times.

Thanks for the suggestion! As a matter of fact, i think I'm gonna go to my local bmx bike shop right now. Riding brakeless really makes me wanna shat my pants, I hate it.

Oh and if I were to get bmx levers, I won't needa change out any of my original parts right? (besides the lever of course).

That pic is actually of my bike (I assume you're talking about that pic and not the one of bloodied Fabio).

What size lever do you need? I have an unused right-side Tektro cross lever with a 24mm clamp that I'll send you for 10 bucks if you want it.

I'll see your chrome right side clamp and raise you an all black one, in 31.8mm.

Hey Scrod, what kind of bars are those?

Nemesis Project 'lil' Weezy' alloy risers. I ****ing love them.

Oh yeah that sounds good dude, just pm me directions on how I should get you the money. Thanks a lot Scrod.

Wth dude? How the hell do you even order from this site? Lol call me noob but I'm confused. How much did you pay for a pair?

try reading next time.

directly from the post:
"Price on our bars are $65.00 + shipping ( EDIT NOTE: We have raised the direct price of the bars to $65 per request from our dealers and dist: to help protect their sug retail prices thank you - Brad )
Please Email me! here to place an order for a set of these bars.
We are always here to help , thank you for your continued support for the upcoming 09 soeason !"

LOL sorry, I do too much reading during the daytime at school. When I come home and go shopping online, I just look for three words "add to cart".

it's cool. I've done that before. I read ****loads too, so i usually just skim posts of that size.

I actually got them from a friend of mine on the west coast right when they came out. As much as I do like them, I'm not sure if I would have paid that much for them. $65+ is pretty steep.

Yeah for that price, I'd probably just pick some nittos up from my LBS.

Forgive the off topic post but -
I'm just stopping by after finishing an Ovid paper to say that I do love Latin (and Ancient Greek), but classical rather than medieval.

@Brian - I know what you're saying about the lack of coherent organization of thought in forum posts - I'm definitely guilty of that sometimes.

Bah! How much does a powder-coating cost anyway? ... Then again, I do own Titec H-bar. So I should shut my mouth is my own shoe.

P.S.

Well, mac ... If you are talking about Metamorphosis, you got a wrong man. I am too immature to appreciate that sorta thing. It's so ... not hipster.

Good lord already! why are all these bars getting cut so damn narrow? Yeah I've heard the "so I can snake between cars" line..come on are you really that close between cars that the two inches you cut off your bars is a lifesaver? how do you get any leverage at all on an incline?

For the love of god try and convince me this isn't just a fashion statement.

anyway i'm finished now, back to your regularly scheduled hate!

Oh and I still like alot of the bikes I see on here, except Gold and white ones..(just kiddin' schrod). nice rig..

"except gold and white ones"

That's pretty much narrowed down to just me! :lol:

Oh just trust me, it's not that narrow, so calm down already. I've seen narrow from all the hipsters around here and mine are nowhere near that.

"Measure twice, cut once." Consider this experience a tuition payment into the school of hard knocks.

And don't feel bad about yourself. The only guys who haven't had this kind of experience are the guys who have never tried to do anything themselves. Our life is richer than theirs.

My friend slapped his lever on his top tube. Pretty sick if you ask me. :P

Not if you ask me. That's actually pretty whack :)

do people not use shims anymore? find rubber, cut it, stick it on the bend mount lever on top.
