If he got pissed and walked away its because he didnt know HOW they were made or HOW they were mounted. He just buys stuff somebody else builds and he rides it around. It's a defense against being asked technical questions.

Aw, you guys are being hard on the guy, maybe he has a medical problem, like really offensive smelly BO and the bars are prescription to help dry out his pits.

Yeah, maybe he wants attention, or maybe he's just living the dream.

Either way, might as well sell his pits for advertising space since their gonna be seen by everyone.
