My toe strap snaped today while skidding down a hill...

Scary moment.

That steam roller frame is growing into me, I dont care much for the threadless fork but that frame's gorgeous.

How did you break that strap? And what kind of strap was it?

Donald, just lean really far forward, lock your back leg and pull up real hard on the front leg. Make sure your straps are tight cause that'll help.

if it all possible, yes. i guess a single-speed mountain bike. any suggestions?
please?
I really don't know much about mountain bikes, I'd say go to your lbs and see what they have, just tell them what you want and what you need it for.
easy enough. thanks. donald, is that just a normal bmx frame? with bigger tires/wheels, and forks? or is that a type of frame other than a bmx? i would love to find a bike like that.
 
Damn Donald, I love the look of that bike.
Small frame, high seat, big wheels and tires.
Is that a cruiser frame or something? Or an MTB trials frame? haha idk.

Same, I was looking at that thing for like ten minutes last night. I'm thinking it's a 26" cruiser frame? Oh yeah, of course it is, cause of the dropouts. But with a mountain bike fork.

Thanks man.

I need to get a new back tire. I dont want to wear out the michelin. Are there any tires that you guys recommend for durability but not very expensive?
