wow, I cant believe that guy took the time to write a damn book full of negative comments! But then again, look at his near stock bike, and look at yours.. LOL

BMX, your bike is looking hella good. I totally dig the bratstyle. Its nice to see someone go a different route with their bike, and not do the "bobber" style like myself. Can't wait to see her done!

Yea I noticed it looked like it had a LOT of clearance under the frame...those damn things must be quite a bit taller.

How about havin' yer fab shop drill two holes in the flat and making you a block to secure underneath from the top with some domed hex screws?
