Do it

Put new grips on it. Straitened my bars out after a bail at the skatepark a few nights back. And ordered the parts I need for my spare bike. Hopefully will have it done by next week.

Brake mount ripped out of a mates Fly Tierra.

Fly put that grub screw in to hold the posts in the frame instead of the bolts that go through the posts so the spring cap wouldn't rotate relative to the post, but what stops the springs from making the posts rotate when you release tension on the grub screw? Is it keyed?

I hope that can be warrantied, that frame can't possibly hold up to much without some drilling/gusseting especially with how thin tubes are on bike frames these days..

Not to mention the lower the frame triangle the lower the strength.

My Marmoset is tightening really stupid in my forks. I have dual knight guards on it. When i tighten it one of the guards is fine but the other acts like a screw and pushes my wheel to the other side, like really bad. It doesn't do it when i put the wheel on backwards though. I would like to keep the knight guards on but don't know what to do. Only things i can think of is dishing the wheel to the other side or taking my tire off and putting it facing the right way with a backwards wheel. pls help

Fixed that problem today. I trued my wheel so it's in line now and doesn't hit. Went to ride it then my ratchet skipped, took my wheel off and lubed my driver up. Noticed the helicoil coming out so i clipped the part that i could not push back in but while i did that ,even more helicoil came out so i had to push it in with 2 screwdrivers. My bike feels nice kind of.

Cult chain, wheel is slammed now my shit is too tight. Upgrading to a 28t soon. Still rides awesome I live this bike.

Replaced my chain and noticed my profile driver is missing 2 teeth....

I'm still kicking myself over this shit ass trade I did months back. Fuck you Zachbmx for not giving me the full extent of how shitty your wheel was....
