Wow, nicest Molly I've seen. Good work!

 

[grom-dom]

i agree with bicyclist, that is the nicest molly i have ever seen

 

[mosplat]

that's a beautiful color.
and something about the setup is just
very, very aesthetically pleasing.
i bet it rides just as well.
props.

Hey guys, i saw that some of you have Tioga FS100 tyres, so, if it isn't a problem, can someone mesure the real width of the tyre in milimeters for exemple and also tell me the width ot the rim he uses. I want to buy these tyres, but because of my frame it will be a tight fit (if they fit at all). Thanks in advance!

Looks really nice, but the shermans tend to look 1000 times better with black lowers imo..

 

[Mr Tiles]

sean, that color/ride is kickin'

Trivia ??...Have any of you brothas' Heard of "Darrell Young?" X BMXER {JMC Racing} turned MTN. Biker {SE & ARROW Racing}. He's the reason i started racing 24s @ MTN. Bike Nats. 5 years ago.Took his concept of racing 24s'. and, my BMX Knowledge from riding street and racing for the past 27 yrs. and came up w/ my all around 24. specialized HardRock "13 frame/20.5 in. tt.And all Primo BMX Stuff.Worked good except the bottom Bracket was too low.ran 165mm. cranks so it wouldn't scrub.Back then all the co. except for Arrow and Tioga made tires to fix.ohh..excuse me, Gazza made one too{but way too big of knobs for street.}.But, stuck w/ my roots and ran comp3s.'it's amazing how many co. make these frames{24in rim spec.} compared to 5 years.

updated pic of my tonic, waiting for my acl to heal.

thanks to shino/grindstate for the photo.

 

[Bicyclist]

Is it dark green now?

 

[v-digit]

nope. still orignial battleship grey.

 

[standard125r]

looks fantastic mate, i actually prefer the battleship grey to my baby blue,

these tonic fg frames are about the best non "20bmx i've ever ridden,
so sweet handling, and it hops like a bmx, f**king thing wont stay down! everytime i ride it it just pos up at me!

some more pics please v-digit?

alot of the photo's have disappeared from this thread, could fall guy and USB owner re-post theirs?

 

[v-digit]

random recent shots, per standard125r request

 

[don]

Damn. Sean's USB looks incredible. Almost as good as my own

I've added some new parts to mine and should post some pics up but I might wait until I get it repowdered.

Vas - very cool roof top pic - I like seeing the grind marks too.

 

[Stoked]

nice updates vas. im feeling the brown

 

[Landon]

Vas:

Nice rooftop photo. Very NYC.

I take it the grind marks are also very NYC. And I thought my Fall Guy was beat-up...

Looks like a fast set-up, especially with those tires. Tioga really needs to start importing them here.

Sean: Really nice looking Molly. That color really works. Interesting looking stem, and a Profile non-disc hub is definately The Joint. Looking forward to the Working Class Hero's debut. You guys must be stoked about that one coming together.

[grom-dom]

you think YOUR fall guy is beat up. i'll pust some updated pic of mine, need to get new grips my ruffians went through to the metal yeasterday and the end tore off.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think I'm on a mission to steal it... kiddin....kinda

 

[Mr Tiles]

don't give sean the big head...seriously, that's prolly the sweetest 24 eva!

 

[Landon]

i hope it doesnt make you too upset to see one of your babies all beat up

Quite the opposite. I'm stoked to see the bikes get used.

However, the FG wasn't really built to endure tons of hardcore grinding. Obviously it can take some, but those aren't the thickest stays.

[don]

its fine, with 26 & disc your spoke flanges would be too narrow
for serious thrashing but i have done everything to mine 3's,
180 to flat, nose case and serious speed pumps in the bowls.
thats the only place i think i feel them flex and come loose.
you have to be more diligent on keeping your spokes tight
or you will taco in no time.

Dat's an old school table right there. None of this new school quasi-table, shoulder-buzz/invert more like an unturndown crap...

Although, I'm gonna start doin em. oster_oops:

 

[Landon]

BCD: Nice table! Looks like your new bike is treating you well. Looks like a simple/functional/light set-up.
What stem is that??? Could you post a close up?

[Bicyclist]

I think it's a titanium WTB stem. Bike looks dialed BCD!

i am loving the 24's my bike weights 25 lbs.

i dont see any advantages.

 

[ServeEm]

the only advantage I see is that it looks damn nice. I'm prolly to abusive to be lacing mine like that.

 

[opjones]

i dont see any advantages.

Shorter spokes, less rotational weight?

 

[morethanjake543]

the only advantage I see is that it looks damn nice. I'm prolly to abusive to be lacing mine like that.

So when are we going to see pictures of your 24"?

Wow. That can be taken so wrong.

 

[manhattanprjkt83]

BCD do you think that front hub axel nut combo would work on a fox vanilla fork? I need to build a new front wheel and really like the profile hub...Thoughts?
