So what's the skinny on the different arms available? I ordered a Fall Guy and it comes with a Profile BB, but I don't know what arms to get. There's the BMX SS, DJ, and Race set. Which one would be best for street/park? What's the difference?

I'll be running 170 or 175mm arms w/ a microdrive setup.

It comes down to how strong they are. The race would prolly be plenty for most people. The others are way stout if thats what you think youll need.

Ill prolly put deitys on mine and use the profile spindle.

Should be the 19mm 48 spine. I think one of the profiles is larger, i forget which one.
The SS's have a larger spindle, but they also weigh a ton. The race's are fine for DJ and street, and the spindles come in a 5 3/4 in. or a 6 in.
Just make sure the spacer is in the BB!

OK, so my frame should come with a race-compatible splined BB.

I'll go for those then.

Thanks a bunch guys.
