I meen the brakes are cool, they just smell and wear down real fast. But the way i see it is the deck is desighned for like flatlandish techy grind box sorta stuff. Where if thats what you do you probably wont wear down the brake

yeah, how do you upload photos from a iphone onto here? i dont have a photobucket account, so i'd like to be able to upload straight from my phone, can i do that? how?

1- download the photobucket app
2- upload the pic to photopucket
3- go to the pic and press the IMG CODE box. It should say img code copied after that
4- come back to here and press paste

Getting an aluminum plate welded on my district to strengthen the headtube. Anyone know how thick it should be? I was thinking 2-3mm.

Just got wheels for the dirt scooter, hopefully only a week before I'm finished. Just gotta fix up the rear dropouts, make the fork, then I'm good. Also need to find out an efficient way to get the deckplate on.

It will probably make your deck weaker unless you heat treat it. Not to mention, chances are the design won't even make it any stronger.
