I have a few concerns/questions:
1. The brakes. I'm used to disc brakes and stopping on a dime. What are good BMX brakes so when I do stalls and/or abubacas I dont slip out and bust my a$$? Bike comes with a Tektro U-brake. Is it ok to start?
2. The chainring/sprocket. Can I grind on that? My MTB had a E13 bash guard, so I didnt have to worry. I'll be running a Shadow Conspiracy Interloc Chain, but do I need a new stronger sproket?
3. Chain Tensioners. Do I need them? I plan to run the wheel pretty far in, maybe all the way in. Please advise.
