I just cut and paste your message into a word doc and hit spell-check and my PC is smoking.

 

[Smelly]

damn dude, you need to learn to write.
do your current brakes still work fine? then get a new drivetrain. that's my opinion

 

[Fulton]

I'm a pretty big hope fan myself, but I still say go with the sram/e13 setup.

 

[Brian HCM#1]

Does you current drivetrain work ok? I'd go with the e13 & CK headset.

 

[D_D]

Look at what parts have seen better days or where you can get the most noticable difference.
If your current m4s are good you will get little benifit upgrading, even more so with the headset.

Your dad is paying for 1/2 a dorado He should consider investing in a tutor instead.

Your dad is paying for 1/2 a dorado He should consider investing in a tutor instead.

Maybe his dad figures that the tutors are already a lost cause and at this point he's just trying to get junior out of the house for a while.

I would get what you need. Is the drivetrain working? Then don't replace it, get the e13 and headset, etc.

Make that 5 of 8...I'm just pissed you all used the good material before I could get in on it, u noe?

 

[Red Bull]

Nope, 5 out of 8.

O, nevermind, counting this one its 6 out of 9.

 

[OGRipper]

Given the two choices, if the M4's work fine and you like them, keep them and start your new rig fresh with a new drivetrain and headset. Maybe keep your chain guide and put that cash toward some new brake pads and tires or something else that will wear out sooner rather than later.

Honestly, given how little time you apparently spent on your post I don't know why any of us are taking the time to give you any advice.

Yes Grasshopper, with RM, as in life, you get out of it what you put into it and friend, you didn't put much into that post.

 

[lovebunny]

id go w/ the drivetrain and all because itll be more noticable on the new bike. not to mention chris kings are the best headsets ever.

 

[lanman]

definitely get the drive train and headset if your breaks work fine

 

[BigMike]

I agre. iF youre breaks work gud alredy, go wif funtion over apearance. a new drivetrain wuold be a betterer choice over breaks that just look cooler than da old 1s.

 

[TurnerDHRider]

okay what is wrong with my writing? is it becasue i use abbreviated words such as: noe(know), nething(anything)

oh by the way..its brakes..not breaks..hypocrytes

sorry dudes..but thanks for the input!! i will go for the sram/Ck headset

 

[OGRipper]

It's not that big a deal but come on, is it really that much harder to type "anything" than "nething"? "Know" than "noe"? One more letter turns them into real words!

You're not saving time, you just think it's cool and we don't, so there.


:eviltongu :eviltongu :eviltongu

 

[MikeD]

"Abbreviated?" Try "misspelled." Also try using some punctuation or capitalization once in a while. It's really not that much of an effort.

You'll find we're pretty much a bunch of geeky, stodgy, anal-retentive jerks (of all ages) when it comes to grammar and spelling around here. We don't usually take anything seriously unless it's presented seriously and coherently...that means little to no net-speak. It's just how the poplulation of the board is; however, it's probably also the best board on the internet to get quality information. Just depends on what your priorities are and how willing you are to fit in around here.

Hope you got some good information, and I think you made a good decision given your situation...

You might also learn to recognize parody.

And it's "hypocrites."

i am sorry for being such a noob on this forum..thanks for the comment from you MikeD...its a fairenough comment and i will stop "misspelling" and be a civilized person..lol..i m being serious..but really i do think that this forum is way above all the other ones and also i dont think my "misspelling" is cool, i just thought that it might save time, but as OGRipper said, i am just dropping one letter, so it does not make any differnce! thanks for pointing that out and also thanks for the input! i am getting the stuff today!

One more vote for the Sram stuff. This summer most of my bikes switched over to Sram drivelines from shimano stuff (I worked at a shop this summer) and it works so much better than shimano it's not even funny. Especially on the full squish bikes. Not that I don't think new brakes wouldn't be cool but I've got m4's on one bike and mono4's on another and besides looking cooler they work about the same.
