FRAME
I was in such a hurry to get my new prototype frame that I told Fit to send it raw with no paint or clear coat. I actually ended up liking the way it looked with some rust on it. I think it looks pretty tough [ha-ha]. I'm kind of over it now though, can't wait to get the limited edition gold.
DRIVE TRAIN
Lots going on here. Prototype Fit sprocket that I'm really hyped on, it's strong, light and it looks good. I used to have a lot of problems breaking cranks. I tried a few different brands with little luck so I was skeptical when the guys at Fit told me the new cranks were strong. They were right. No lie they are the strongest cranks I've ever ran. I got sick of plastic pedals pretty fast. I felt like my feet were slipping off a lot more often then they did before. I thought I'd give the JC PCs a try. So far so good.
STEM
Mike Aitken stem. This one is a prototype but they are out now. I love the top load stem.
FRONT HUB
G-Sport hub. I used to have to cut down my front axle and run a small nut to make sure it wouldn't get hung up on rails when doing derek dusters. I don't have to worry about that anymore with the female style hubs.
REAR HUB & PEGS
G-Sport Ratchet hub with a custom hub guard that Matt Beringer made for me. The hub is bomb proof and I like the basic cone shape when it comes to hub guards. I like my hub guard, peg and dropout to all sit flush. I'm also rocking a T-1 peg back there. I've been running them since the day they came out. A lot of people don't even know they still make them.
GRIPS & BRAKE LEVER
Duo Homan grip feels broken in straight out of the box. I can't give up the tech 77 lever. Old habits die hard. I had the same lever for years but this one is newer. I broke one recently and I think it might be the first time I ever broke a lever. I always use a couple wrenches to give it a custom bend as well. Dragon Fly upper gyro cables, this is my last one and they are hard to find sometimes. Let me know if you know where I can find some?
SEAT, GYRO & FORKS
Fit PCP padded seat. I finally stepped up to the pivotal game not to long ago. My seat worked its way down over the past couple years. It does feel good having it out of the way and makes barspins feel more like a trick. You don't see to many gyros out there these days but there is an exclusive club that I'm proud to be a part of. If you like brakes and you like barspins, then it's the only way to go. Fit Blade Lite forks, not much to say it's a good fork. I haven't messed up a pair yet.
TIRES & RIMS
Duo natural wall tire matches the rust pretty good. Not sure how the X's got on the side walls but I think it looks kind of cool. G-Sport rims, years of refining have found just the right balance between weight and strength, good stuff.
