Maybe I will do a proper check and some better pictures, but I probably won't. You can probably figure out whats on it. It might be the only 22 with a coaster though.



I have only gotten a chance to ride in front of the house, but it feels incredible. I had to take 2 years off riding while I waited for a knee surgery and after coming back my BMX bike just felt really cramped and uncomfortable. I put off buying a 22" for over a year because I wasn't sure if I would like it, but i finally bit the bullet and it feels great. I have been waiting a long time for this bike.

Makes me wanna get a 22". I love that green

The wife and I saw it again, this time at a drive-in. Was pretty cool experience for my first drive-in.

As far as, Rey origins, I think she's Obi Wan's grand daughter/Luke's daughter.

I see him as a bullied teen ready to shoot up his school. I enjoyed him as an early villain, tantrums and all.  From how it looks now I can see him being a very good villain.

Suprised this thread hasn't popped up by now. I can't be the only nerd here who has seen the movie already.

 Then they'd have to make a lever to fit for the few of us still using brake(s). I think it's dumb, but kids will buy it because of Churchill.

Duggans are out? Where?

They're one their way to shops now. Dan's has them in their catalog, but not on the site, iirc they're $17.99.

i hope they dont replace the jcpcs cos those things are awesome. just gotta crank em down nice and hard if you dont want them to spin much

I meant they might replace my JCPCs, not that the Dugan's might be replacing the JCPCs in Odyssey's pedal repertoire permanently. No matter how much I tighten my JCPCs they develop a wobble shortly after, no big deal just bothers me a bit knowing it's there, otherwise I love them.

G, I saw a couple posts on Instagram about the Dugan Grandstand pedals, but nothing showing anything special about the bearing system, spindle, or the like. Dan's has them in their catalog as well and they mention something about an unsealed bearing, I was under the impression they didn't use any bearings, but bushings instead.

Bushings/Plain Bearings. They are a teflon filled plastic. Couple of little design details help make the pedal easy to make so we can make it super affordable without having to use looseball which would make it either very thick or have a piss-weak axle. So far we've only really been showing the plastic ones, but we also have an aluminium version with steel pins which I am absolutely loving. Hopefully we will get the issues with tooling sorted out soon and actually start selling them!

I just hope the spindle is as strong as the JCPC spindle.

Yeah that's the one. I'm a bit confused as well. Hopefully it's bearingless and solves of the minor wobble of the JCPCs that they might replace.

I don't care about the origins of the First Order troops. I wanna know about the new death star(snow planet) that popped up on 30 years.
