i know.  It's amazing that this would have been considered a top of the line freestyle bike back then.  But compared to what we ride now, the same can be said about all those tiny 6" high bars with lowered (s&m redneck style) stem we rode back in the 90's(chad degroot style).  My back permenantly aches from that set up.  I quickly went back to something taller.

Those look like the bars Shintaro was running in Flatground '06... lol
Funny how bars that size have made a comeback in the street riding scene. If that's the secret to how a lot of those guys can do bunnyhop tailwhips at will though, I'd jump on that wagon in a minute.  ;D

pegs...NO!  forkstander...YES!  the bikes in the background are my daughters.  the lil one has pearl white zero offset forks and pearl white bars on it so i put suelo V2 stickers on the bike(looks pretty cool).  the other bike back there is for my older daugther, but she seems to wanna leard to skateboard more than bike.   uuuggghhh, i know, but it's her passion, so i won't interfer.  i've actually taped some stuff on tv for her.

no, once i get my spending cash straight, i fully intend on restoring it back to original, so it will have semi-smoother gt tires on it.  the kids christmas fund comes first though and then money for new wheels as mine are done for... ;D

Here's mine, all the same but new Tanaka fork (which is NOT 738gr like flatlandfuel states, I weighted it on my microscales and it showed 790gr), but whatever, I needed something which is NOT 14mm like Inertia fork I used before.
So anyway, new matte black paint job.
17 lbs.





WEIGHT FREAK!!!

seriously though... FRIGGIN NICE BIKE!

I'll give you that, I am a weight freak, haha. Gotta get myself a set of those Ares Cranks.
A great thing about a 17lbs bike - no one can ride it, it just flies out of everyone. Makes me smile.  ;D
