Paperclip Posted September 3, 2009 Report Share Posted September 3, 2009 Im a fan, 5 things id change then id ride this bars and stem cranks and free wheel (change to isis) pads, and grinds mod the 4 bolt booster to a 2 bolt get a bigger dick these bikes are nice imo, there not exactly thee best of frames however there underated, one of my friends has one and well, not died on him and I can ride it even as a standerd build and still not struggle, the square tubing on the rear end helps the brake as there little to no flex at all- hence why id either mod the booster down to a two bolt or not run it at all.also love the forks, however dont know whats gone on setting up your maggie, as theres the forks then a silver thing then your clamps whats the silver bit there for? looks like a vee adapter but your running a maggie I like the white frame, looks good, as long as you like it what does it matter.+1. if you dont like it, its as easy not to post im sure there are loads of people on the forum who dosent like jacks zoo that keep it to them selves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But remove them gay things from bars I all so have the same chain as you They were a joke forgot to take them out... though they looked funny when hopping around the workshop.
