customer wanted red nipples, so that's what he got. all of my wheels are brass nipples. i'm alot less concerned with color coordination

i ride with 4 or 5 other guys depending on who's wife bitches. all but one of us ride 29ers. the only person that's had issues was a guy who is 6'3 and about 235 lbs. he's trashed 2 front wheels racing. hope hubs, velocity disc rims, 3 cross, double butted, alloy nipples. i am notorious for...

they are really pretty. they have that dr dre lowrider dayton wheel kind of sparkle in the sun. i had to wait 4 months for the rims to come over from austrailia because no one makes 48 hole non-machined rims as a regular item. i'd wait six months after all the compliments i've recieved. they are...

wait till you start taking down paintings and hanging up bicycles. my living room currently has: 1. 78 or 79 Viner , powedercoated white sparkle with red lead luglining, dropouts changed to track, custom 48 hole non-machined deep Vs laced to phil hubs 3 leading 3 trailing, paul cranks, phil...

one of my good friends owns a shop, he has a pro rider that is sponsered by IF as a customer and preps all of his IF rides. I got to mess around on a new IF 9er prototype and it is pretty damn mean, tons of clearance, nice tight, snappy geometry. only downside, you cant, no matter what you try...

soma really sucks to deal with, that's why i passed on thier frame. the el mari, is nice, but i didn really want a 1x9. when i actually replace my frame, i'm most likely going to jump right into an IF 29er, or have bilenky knock one out for me. i love my monkey though, especially because it...

nope, i'm not really a racer. a couple of my buddies do though. i'm more of a grownup bmx monkey, so i just like to jump s***. every single freaking log pile, not matter how tall. i eat s*** alot, but i always have fun. we normally just hit belmont plateu. it's close and has some fun trails. i...

wow i can't believe i'm the only one rockin' a surly! i ride a karate monkey at least every other weekend. rigid, single speed, yadda yadda. i enjoy the 29er for straight up mountain biking, but i still take my 26" fireman's bmx cruiser out when i feel like acting like a kid and jumping...

if you have a metal welding table, weld a bending point to the table, tack weld the shift to the table, the proceed to heat the shift in the spot you want to bend it with the torch and bend it slowly. if you have patience and take your time, it should work out just great.

any 4wd vehicle that you throw 30 grand out will outperform any mildly modified 4wd vehicle regardless of what it is. the comparison the tundra guy is making is like comparing a genetically engineered super fighting chicken to a chicken with thumbtacks taped to it's legs and questioning why...

based upon this statement, you realize your cruiser is now going to completely implode the first time you push it right? :) why not just take it step by step? if you want portals... do them! wheel it, see how it feels, if you are starved for ponies, then embark on a motor swap! as said before...

damnit if this again doesn't chap my ass. i've been on the hunt for an 80 and this makes me angry. i keep missing out on great deals by a matter on hours and this makes me :mad:. the hell with it.... i'm buying an extreme tundra that will walk all over an 80 series.:flipoff2:

used fj-60 factory carb. not rebuilt, just a takeoff. i was having carb issued with the 60 i had and bought a few takeoff units. the 60 is gone and this is the last carb i have left. to my knowledge this is a working used carb. again it has not been rebuilt! $50 bucks plus the ride to where...

perhaps rhetorical but... if you want a ford motor, trans, tcase, possibly axles... why not just buy a ford? :confused: you're fastly approaching have nothing toyota aside from the body. i can absolutely see the line of thought in grafting portals into an 80 series. enough room to run 38s...

he doesnt have it advertised well aside from a tiny tradin times type rag here locally. i left him a message tonight after talking to him yesterday, telling him i'll pick it up saturday morning.. hopefully i get a call back. :)
