Nice one 8) I like the Red, White & Blue idea :daumenhoch:
Maybe a couple more blue elements would be an idea (stem / grips) ???

cheers guys yeh i wasn't sure the differences in the frames on the redlines, yes i really like the wheels especially, theres a few bits i am not in love with and looking at changing , the saddle maybe , seat post clamp possibly , theres always something eh , i have a standard mongoose californian and the difference between this and that is amazing it must be half the weight of the mongoose

I have to say I am not too sure about the tyres though, I think skinwalls would make a big diiference.
