Swwwwwwweeeeeeeeettt. That Le Toy frame has grown on me. I used to scowl at it and say, "Overbuilt and under-engineered." Now I smile at it and say, "Overbuilt and under-engineered." 
I think your first upgrade should be to a hacksaw, though, lol. Either that or a REALLY good athletic cup and some DJing kneepads.

i cant talk though, mine is no where near done
hehe, I knew i'd get razzed for that, but I just slipped the fork on for a pic - I think the fact I have a 9mm front wheel in a 20mm dropout is more of a concern
About the design - We all know that aluminum fatigues and isn't an ideal metal for bike frames - but, it fatigues from flexing. Thus if you build an aluminum frame that don't flex, it's gonna last a long, long time. I think the Le Toy is going to last a long, long time
And it's got more engineering than people give it credit too - after all, it's on it's third version, with many small changes along the way. The under-engineered and overbuilt award definitely goes to Clifcat for their Tankass

(I keep thinking about overbuilt and under-engineered asses now...you know, the kind that look eniticing with paint and stickers and all sorts of finish
, but, when laid bare, show poor construction...and fail to hold up to flexing and fatigue in the long term, leaving you with a ruined mess.)
I have fixxed that headtube, just for you guys 
And also polished the frame... man what a beotch..

i like stickers too!! my buddy is making me a set at his work. i can get any colour i want. i dont know what colour to do. 24 rocks, i emailed them asking if i could get a file with the logos so i can have some made and they sent it to me (in corel draw format, the exact format i needed) the next day! i am honestly considering GOLD... because, I love goooooooold!! or just grey.
Hayes were on backorder for a bit but are in now. still waiting on the yodo order, it got delayed. no biggie.. sposed to be on the way

Hey, this is Nick from Santa Cruz, CA. This is my baby, okay, my play bike/xc pedaler once in a while. It's a 2001 Bruiser One, it's got a 2002 Z1 FR, Tioga Cube stem and Factory DH 2.3 front tire, Kenda Kinetics 2.35 rear. Azonic World Force 26" bar my buddy gave me, Odi Lock-on grips, Avid SD 3 Brakes, Shimano 8-speed drivetrain(new shifter, cassette, etc), Race Face Prodigy DH crankset with bachguard with SRX BB(affordable and tough, somehting not usually said about crankset.) , Weyless Mod 37 Pedals(hey, it's just like the A Frame and a third the price, what do you expect from a high school kid on a budget?).The only stock parts are the seat, wheels, and brake levers. The next upgrade will be Hayes Discs or maybe Shimano XT discs. Hope you guys like it.
