I don't know how you guys remember all this stuff.

I went through a stage of swapping frames with people all the time, I must have had 20 frames in the last 5 years.

I went through that phase real bad. not as ready to buy bike stuff anymore ha. guess I'm finally growing up.

wal-mart mongoose
haro 540
se quadangle
dk 4 pack
department store schwinn
haro revo
wtp primate (still have this frame)
fit flow trail
khe zenith
t1 barcode
proper ttl
eastern reaper
fly mosca
hoffman strowler

sunday forecaster (sitting in my closet if anyone wants it stupid cheap)
t1 ruben
mutiny rune (my red bike)

barcode with orange tires and camo parts actually looks good, but i like more unique bikes so this comment probably doesn't matter lol. i'd keep it as is

So I just got my taska ufree from flatland fuel, wheel looks amazing. i held it in my hands and when i spun it forward it felt really gritty and rough...but backwards was really smooth. I looked at an article about maintaining it, and found no matter how much I turned the driver anti-clockwise, it would not come off. Is this something anyone has dealed with? Or should I just email FF and see what they think? I should also mention this will be my first freecoaster....(i've been learning with a cassette the whole time!)

Just got a st Martin Alex jumelin frame, fair Dale headset, two sets of brake with gyro cables. Just need wheels and pegs and my flat bike will be ready to roll

Every-pedal-makes-Monty-smile? Pretty excited to see your flat build.

Installed a china-made dropper-post on the MTB. Swapped bars on the two BMXs, pics to follow once the new bars arrive.

every pedal makes you more attractive

That's cool man, I hope you get a setup that helps you progress and have more fun with your flat friends. So very nice is it when you are able to put everything into learning how to interact with your bike and finally succeed in doing what you wanted.

yea, i'm stoked as hell. I was always riding with people who were jsut too negative for me. The flat crowd I hang out with is older, but better quality friends. real friends. already learned funky chickens!

I sent him a present last year for secret santa, and his bikes were always sick...shocked and saddened. RIP Brian, shred the ramps up in the sky. My condolences to his friends and family.
