    rookie your act is played. It's been done a thousand times before. Come up with some original shit. please. You are boring me to death. On that note, DeadHead, you're right. I am tired. Not just tired of rookie's played out bullshit either. It's bedtime.

    Ya know it's enough that we all devote time to a message board, but you (rookie) devote time to trolling a message board. How lame is that?

    Who cares why there's electrical tape on that bike...it's a piece of shit leader. My un-fluted super record pista cranks alone are worth more than that whole bike.

    So you have vintage Italian cranks, disc, and arrospok. Sounds like a real winner. pix plz k thks

    pretty sure this guy is not for real

    I know Rookie,and yes he Does have unfluted Campy Record track cranks and they are a beute.

    Krylon is for TOYS.

    Graffitti spraypaint goes on thick but dries before it runs. It's perfect for painting tubes. That is worthwhile information to have, plenty of us are spray-bombing our bikes.

    Ah c'mon man, I try to only people give a bad time when it's warranted. Rookie is just a mean dude in general. And interwebz trolling is just plain lame. I figured he's a reincarnation of skidzr4kids or paris. Or maybe that butthurt dude Alexokp.

    Three words.... UFB.

    But yeah, trusto the Rusto. The only real toy shit is not having can control at all and payin $6 a can for the nice European shit. Lame.

    It's been way too long since I was directly involved in that game anyway. Didn't Rusto start trying to switch to female caps/male cans?

    serious. it could be MUCH worse.
    all this paint talk is dumb. everyone knows that the expensive shit aint really worth it cause you cant rack it and rusto is legit cause krylon got exclusive female tips now.

    came in here to post this

    • CommentAuthorbrendon_ak

    Ha, Ted and I went to school together for a bit.

    Thanks for the comments, you guys are histerical. I am quite a tight fisted jew, minus the whole jew thing.

    The Klein was owned by an older guy, bought it at the Bike Gallery, he eventually lost his balance and went for a ride, wrecked the bike and broke the bottom half of the deraileur hanger off. I am keeping the option of replacing the deraileur hanger so I can convert it to road when I want, but for the time being its staying a fixed.

    Currently I've got the carbon FSA seatpost, a carbon Time fork is in the mail, and I'm picking up a DT 1.1 rim for the ENO hub. Bars are going to be FSA compact wing's with Cane Creek levers (utilizing the rear brake and cable routings, I know useless, but looks good). Front rim is a Mavic ceramic with XT hub, but might get changed out for a Ritchey track hub laces to matching DT 1.1 rim.

    I'm pretty juiced, this frame is going to be a killer build, such a timeless design.

    The Mercier is the 09 model, brand new, extra china technology into this one, haha. It was cheap, also it was a gift, and serves its purpose as a killer cheap fixed gear bike. I've got a friend looking to get a fixed, so I'm going to sell him the Mercier to help with the Klein costs.

    Dunks and other kicks used to be a passion, still enjoy getting them now and again, but I just wear them rather than obsess

    I've still got to get a pic of my cruiser up here, its got veeps, haha

    the compact wings are sick but I liked the first "ergo" version they came out with that had the ergo drops. now they have shallow drops. are you getting the white or black?

    • CommentAuthorbrendon_ak

    Probably just black, they're usually cheaper. If I was going to spend more money on bars it'd be for the carbon ones, then toss those on the Litespeed, and the Litespeed's old bars would go on the Klein

    So for the Klein I'm thinkin red accents, red headset, red chain, red Toshi straps (pedals swapped from the Kilo), and red spoke nipples

    Whatcha think?
