S&M Redneck XLT stem, Odyssey 41Thermal Race fork, Flybikes Montana handlebars, LDG plastic pedals.



I like 'em low in the back, and tall and wide up front so my handlebars are uncut. When I got the wheels, they looked like they had been built by two different people, so I pulled them apart and rebuilt them with a "head-out-pulling" pattern. I've been building wheels for more than 10 years, so I like them a certain way. Other than that, no other custom mods. 

It's a super quick, fun bike. Kevin nailed the design of the frame. I've owned plenty of bikes, from a GT Mach One, a Soul Bikes Soultrain to a Flybikes Diablo 3 and this set-up is my favorite so far.

I will have more bike checks to come. They will be bikes of more relevant riders, I promise.
