Really pleased with my Birzman pump. I had a Joe Blow but kept having problems with the smart head after using it on prestas.

I live out in the suburbs but talk to the guys at Let's Roast Bmx.  They're all really cool.

The last one is episode 8 from December 24, 2014.  Hopefully there's a new one coming soon.

I'm addicted now.  That mini is going to be a monster when it's done.

The Bike Shop / Re: When your Sunday Soundwave is cracked in 3 places, is all hope lost?

« on: February 25, 2015, 04:24:59 PM »

I just ordered a soundwave and the guys at full factory told me they rarely get warranty calls on them.

Really though, what did you expect? "Yeah, you fuckin shitbags break these things all the time...".

Of course theyre going to tell you they're awesome. They're trying to sell it to you.

*this is not meant to be a dig at FF or Sunday. Nor am I implying they are lying to you. Soundwaves are great. Unless you're Laz apparently.

I know they're in the business to make money but in all the dealings the shop I work at has had with them they have always been helpful.

I somehow went a month without tacos. Never again.

I think the biggest thing is price.  I've got a set of unsealed aluminum trailmix pedals because I won't ride plastic pedals but didn't went to spend a crazy amount on something I know is going to get trashed.  I really like the slim aluminum pedals like the Diety's and others but can't justify spending $100+ on something I step on.

Thanks guys.  It's currently freezing here in Illinois but it feels awesome just cruising it around.  I just changed the tires to Maxxis DTH's today and am taking it to Ray's Milwaukee Sunday Sunday Sunday to test it out.  Can't wait.

Sold my buddy my Agua fork and Twombolts so I could buy an R32 fork and Thunderbolts.  Put on United Williams grips.  Plus a doctor finally diagnosed me with ankysoling spondolitis and started me on Humira so now I'm not in pain everyday and can actually start riding.  Just took a Rays Milwaukee trip and am starting to hit the bigger stuff.  Can't wait for summer!

Google Maps.  Snappy Cam is cool too. It allows your camera to shot at 30fps or do time lapse.
