James, do you only do custom covers with bases you have or will you let people send you their seat/foam to be recovered?

and to keep with the thread, I broke some spokes in my rear wheel today.

I would have posted this lastnight but I passed out as soon as I as down on the couch.

I haven't been riding much at all for the past year and a half. Went to the skate park yesterday. Fuck it felt good to know I don't suck as bad as I thought I would. My balls are no where near as big as they were but fuck I impressed my self.

I am sore as fuck though, and I love it. I'm sure I'm equally as sore from falling as I am from riding.

Hah I hope not! The guy dosn't even live in Hawaii but wants our area code......yeah I dont know. On a side note the seat is holding up great!

808

1. The penal code for disturbing the peace. Refers to the sound of bass from stereos.

2. Refering to an analogue synthesiser called a Roland TR-808 used in many 80's tunes.

3. At times a reference to Hawaii's area code: 808.

if it happens to be a seat i do not have... I like to use new seats cause typically a seat is pretty nasty under the cover once it has been used for a while. I don't mind doing a seat for someone who wants to hold onto a seat that is not readily available anymore though

Changed grips and seat on the one, changed bars and put a cassette on the other. Meant to be riding trails tomorrow for the first time, super excited!

I break pivotal bases like crazy because I tailwhip like shit so I used the Animal Bikes padding and cover on an Odyssey Senior2 base which has beefed up plastic braces so it's tough enough to handle my sucktitude..

If I could get it recovered I'd try to get new foam and strip the whole thing down and clean it before sending it off because sending you an ass sweat harvest is pretty fucked up.

Umm been running the burns bars since they came out in Australia. So guessing since August or so. Saying that I prob ride one or twice a week and I'm not ultra hard rider pretty much nibbling. But I've talked to Jamie mauri ex bonedeth and jay Wilson current bonedeth and they have t had any drama's, yes they where/are sponno'd so might be biased info. I've bent the left side of the bars back. I can't feel it but can see it very easily

Ask Abe/big Ben he's a harder rider than me could give you a better run down
