BMXFreak you are now realizing something that shiuldn't be a reality, we flatlaners need no variety just quality, flatland needs no crazy desings just crazy riders!

If you can, close your eyes to crazy designs just get a Simple or any design that's light and durable don't forget you're riding an Alu frame right now, cromoly's heavier (not these days though).

I have always liked the aluminum frames and their geometry  :mellow:

GT show (I had one)
Schwinn Azrael
Ares Choice
KHE Unique

There´s some aluminum frame at the moment in the market??

flatride i bet your bike is st**id light.
what's it weigh?


About 22.3 pounds right now, should be lighter when I lace my front wheel that way.


what the hell ! ! ! i though it would be lighter than that ! ! ! im thinking of going ti but my bike its pretty basic (NOT MUCH TI OR LIGHT STUFF) and its like 21.5. but i dont want my bike to be to light.

To be honest with you, your bike doesn't really look 21.5 lbs, but oh well, you know better.
If I put 2 of these tires on my bike I would lose about 1.5 pounds. But they are just so freaking expensive.
No worries, when I lace my front wheel up the same way and get a new simple frame...

Danscomp had $30 discount on purchases over $250. I like Danscomp's service more than flatlandfuel, but flatlandfuel pretty much has all the good parts. Besides, they are cheaper on Danscomp.
2Danny: about $172 for spokes only.

I paid $143.28 for spokes only (for 72 titanium spokes incl. nipples) and I purchased from Pat.

My wheels are 48h
I got 100 spokes for 172 dollars, which better than $2 for a spoke that Pat sells them for.

Just a quick note.  flatland fuel by far has the best customer service.  I built up abike and bought it from Pat and he was the most helpful person ever, he would respond with emails in an hour and let me know what was up with everything.

this is my dyno. i use it for mostly flatland. i have a new back wheel that i got from flatlandfuel.com and its a nanki techno lite freecoaster with a sun big city rim and just some good stainless steel spokes on it. its so nice to ride. the only thing i dont like tho is that i cant find a good 1 inch threaded 0 offset fork. if i had that it would be perfect.
Where did you steal your bike from?
