lightened up my bike sooooo by soooo many oz's

jcpc's to shadow ravenger pedals.... bout 3oz
2.25 fly ruben folding to 2.0 intense microknobbie... bout 8oz
1.95 folding odsy dirtpath to 2.15 khe park tire... odly enough theyre the same width on the rim.... bout 8oz
railed s&m thin seat to super light tiny cult combo seat/post...  bout 5oz
removed the brakes... wish i was also running pegs so i could remove those too, ha.... bout a pound
removed the bell..... bout 2 or 3 oz
and shitty fly grips to deluxe shovel hands :D


also switched back to my s&m slams and primopro stem from elementry stem and lumberjack bars. supposedly the bars are the same geomeotry but the lumberjack/elementry combo feels like shit... even with my bars forward past parralel, they still ride like theyre in my lap, hate them. old setup may be a tad heavier but feeels sooo much better


bike feeeeeeeeeels sooo diealed now



also purchased cult 510 chain, odsy trigger lever and tree barends

Now put your pegs on.




I walked it through Wal-Mart. Got yelled at, continued to walk it because I wasn't causing any harm.

Damn near ground through a brand new shadow ravager pedal, was kinda bummed as to how short a period of time these lasted, when I ran duos for about 8 months without cracking them or grinding through.

Anybody run Eclat Plazas? how are they?

Also cracked a butcher sleeve which is no big feat

Sanded the rust off my handlebars. Scoured my garage for brakes but no luck. Anyone want to send me some brake arms? Haha.

Just had my first chance to build up one of the Sunday Broadcaster completes.  The Quik Slic cable paired with the Springfield brakes give a damn fine "bmx handshake" right out of the box.

Also built up my flat bike.  Tensioning the front wheel tomorrow and making last minute adjustments.  Will post a bike check with pictures when its together.

Thanks.  I had that version, but a small part of me was hoping they were the older style.  Either one or two versions before this frame.  That was my first "legit" bmx frame back in the day.
