i'd still buy the sunday and the luxury of a having a warranty.....


that s&m rb is a bit of alright though, ask the seller to mark the box "used bicycle parts" or customs will fook you hard in the arse,

brake mounts look to be thread in so you could always buy some from s&m,

Just building up a S&M BTM with similar spec to that RB and that is a bargain  :shocked: :shocked: would need to ask if he would put a low value on it for customs, but run the risk with insurance.....(Says he only ships in the states aswell)  I have one of those Sunday frames and its nice, but doesn't come close to the S&M imo, but that Sunday is also a bargain though.......Oh yeah, the RB in that pic has thread on 990 mounts, love that bike, very nice........ :smitten:

see?
fookwits,

all,

this fooker just read the last post and translated it into "fookwit" for you,

infantile abbreviations and everything,

"i'm building up an s&m btm.......with pf's and sb's.......it's better than the sunday because its more expensive.......i bought it because i'm completely un-original"

have you thought as to wether the s&m's geometry will suit you?
or were you just looking a the pretty paint?

I'm building the S&M with my 15 year old son, for him, its all his choice of parts, he's been saving, birthday moneys, pocket moneys, and getting the rest for xmas and picking up parts for best part of a year, he's rode a BTM and likes the angles of the frame. He lives , rides and breathes BMX every day.

LOL, love you....

Anyway back to the topic  ::)

That Sunday Aaron Ross is a lot of bike for the money  :daumenhoch:

But if you can sit on a few and get one which feels right  :daumenhoch:

I've had a WTP Volta and loved it there's a lot of good complete's out there and with the new 2012 models there's some bargins to be had  ;)

I cant get over the spec on that sunday, thats a topend wheelset, if I was looking for a complete around that price I wouldn't look at anytyhing else, unless you have been riding n/s for a while I doubt your gonna know about geometry.
Dont do what many do and stick the bars right forward destroying the handling of the bike.
