Better or worse?
« on: December 09, 2005, 11:14 AM »
Turned my back for 2 seconds and some bugger bolted tuffs to the pink firebird.

Before:



After:



I know i love tuffs and i never normally build a bike without them, but i kinda felt it was right to keep the original wheels on this frame?

So, what you think?

not a lot of difference to be honest.

A lot of freestyle frames were too light anyway.

Tuffs add a bit of weight and help with the balance when doing 900 flair barspin tailwhips.
