I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

hope i like the 22/8 setup i know alot of people like it but some say the 23t spoc is a lil stronger. i dont do any type of sproc grinds or anything. i plan on running 4 gsport plegs on this bike and im gonna try some newer things grinding wise so the smaller sproc will be nice.

F that brakeless nonsense. I love my brakes way to much. Though my one friend says no brakes really helps him with the last minute backing out on a trick.

The plegs last about 2 good days of riding before they have to be rotated. If your not grinding on any concrete then you will be fine. My new bike is gonna be 25-9 gearing

I mean they work great and all but you have to keep rotating them if you want them to last more than a week. I'm running they odyssey jpeg lighters and they hardly weigh anything. Give me your parts list and I can get you a good deal on them. Beat dans by 5-10 bucks on just about anything. All my parts will be here on friday and I can't wait.
eatern grim reaper 20.5 4lb frame
odyssey director forks 30oz
eastern ultra light bars 8" rise
eastern pro cranks
eastern choker stem
primo balance 7000 rims
primo mix cassete 9t R hub
primo small flange light F hub
primo analog light 25t sprocket
and everything else to make it a complete is all from primo
Should weigh about 25lbs with pegs
