main reason i picked mod is they seem stronger (look stronger)
look neater, no mech/mech hanger etc ( even though alot of 26" frames dont now)
the nice big fat tyre looks cool
they are easier to chuck about, although i find it a bit harder to gap on the mod for some reason

Great looking mod. Are you running pedal washers with those cranks?
pedal washers ??? nope not running none?
Edit: Bash plates and naked freewheels look silly...i quite like the look of bash plates and freewheels.. ive got a spare bash ring that will fit, but to be honest im didnt like the look.
cheers for all the comments though, the bike does ride nice. although i havent rode for 2 years so it all feels new to me anyway lol

but it could still be the same height.
did you read the rest of my thread or wat?
i said even if it is the same hight it will feel lower... which is correct

they are stronger because the coil is normally stainless steel...
you can buy helicoil kits quite cheap these days...
for 4 bolts you need M5 x 0.8

also BB rise can make the front end feel lower..
example if your BB rise is only 50mm and your front end is 800mm hub to bars (using example above)
you get a new frame BB rise 60mm even though your front end might still be 800mm bars to hub, your stoon 10mm higher on the bike, making bars feel 10mm lower if you get me
