poopipe Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 It's to look cool and in doing that you MUST have a light bike. So yeah they all suck. And don't tell me you've just gone and done, haven't you. I tried but I couldnt carve my way through the "kevlar-like" material coverOn a plus side i've ordered a flip flop hub.why?

minicrack Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Thought i'd get some pics up before i recieve my new shit from the source: S&M thin seat, Fit OG grips (yeah thats right haha, new seat).Last weekend 'cause of the rain i decided to do some weight whoring so yeah got some pics up of that . Also cut the seat tube down as well so the seat sits lower.Anyway on with the pictures:Drilled out the guts and seat clamp, all the top peice with the notches that clamps onto the inner peices are drilled out as well but i couldnt be botherd to strip it to take pictures of it all.Removed the reflector mounts on the pedals, removed the replaceable pins, then drilled holes in the pedal body ( i do know they won't be strong, but i'm a light rider, and pedals are the next thing on the list anyway)Drilled the seat post out, and removed the taper at the top so it can be fully slammed.*next update when the new seat and grips arrive*Your bike is looking nice as ever, although i think you went a bit over the top with the drilling craze.
