Got some Primo Samsquanch bars, got to ride on my lunch break today and my back feels a million times better with the 9X29s.

the only calipers i have is a piece of string, a 4.25in long phone and a quarter.

Fit FAF-K tires and a Profile Elite sprocket on my FBM. Also switched up the stickers.

Probably down to the boss spacing rather than the caliper, though switching out the pad spacing is often all it takes to get the space you need.

Mine too, though mostly for the big bikes. There's literally nothing on the BMX market right now that I think is worth buying. The Tom Dugan Jim C pedals might be good though.

He is so good that he probably doesnt have a serial number on his frame, just a cheat code...

Put on my new Odyssey q1 wheel and retired my 2 year old V3 cassette that started making a horrible grinding noise.

G,

the tire was rubbing the arms off of the boss. No worries found out springfields fit the bill. Ordered up and ready to roll. I can post a pic of the tire rubbing if you want

No that's cool, thanks for the offer though.

If it is rubbing the arms at the large diameter bit around the boss then the Springfields are about your only choice and will give you another 2mm each side.

I started putting my Take Time back together with all my Thompson and Ti bits. I dropped a knobby set of tires on it to keep me motivated to dig once I finish the MTB trails.

Dropped another set of pegs on the Morrow, along with a Fiend Morrow stem, 9" bars, Zodiac flat cap. Rode it and then decided my Reverse doesn't cut it. New freecoaster on the way!
