if you can't make up your own mind on wtf to do to YOUR bike, I think the speed of the 120r might hurt you so go with the wheels but have em installed. JMO

Dude,

Why do you harbor so much anger? Did somebody once steal you're favorite blanky?

My Dad who's a retired FBI agent once told me, if you have nothing nice to say, STFU!!!!

If you'd like, call me and we can discuss your anger issues. 555.Icanhelpyou
