Switched wheels and sprockets. You probably save a bit of chain weight by going down in gear sizes. Going from 36t to 25t.

Got tired of how ratty my raw Solid 4 pcs were getting. Busted out the sandpaper and spraypaint. Fresh satin black

Went to the skate park and tried working on airing quarters a little. This is best I could get without getting sketchy in the air. Any tips for airing higher? It's scary going at a quarter pipe fast haha.

my advice would be learn on a big quarter but that one doesn't look a bad size. its also good in a pipe because you build up speed without realising as you do them so you go faster

Really just bars with better old man wrist geo. I'll try and get a decent pic when I get off work at stupid o'clock

I took apart my 3 year old DK cassette and found that both the pawls and ratchet ring are worn to shit. Kind of sucks because I called up DK and they don't have any replacement pawls for the specific hub, which would at least help.

I'm surprised this hub has lasted as long as it has, it came off an '09 DK 8 pack complete.

Getting a profile totems>sun envys wheelset soon.

That sucks. But you should have worn a helmet.
