sweet! thanks for your replies. Guys, imagine ALL this for $450USD :eek:

frame: volume compton
forks: SnM ditch forks
stem: redneck (i think)
bars: SnM slam bars
Wheelset: Sun Big City
cranks: Profile SS with profile sprocket
predals: SnM
Lever: Goldfinger

its used of course, but the parts are nearly immaculate and the frame has some minor wear.

Get a redneck light if you want s&m, I personally dont like slam bars though, go with something smaller and lighter. S&M doesnt make pedals any more so you should get them while they are still around. They just stoped recently. OTher wise it looks ok, But Big citys arent the greateds street rims, all 4 that i know of have now been replaced.

if you ride street or dirt jump alot eventually EVERYTHING gets replaced.

the more you ride the better you get and the bigger stuff you start to try.

one day that 15 step hand rail just isn't as big as it used to be......

yep mike is prolly hooking me up. He would be taking all the parts off of his dirtbike classic and putting them on the volume.
