my bike was krylon flat black, zip tied, never once washed other than riding in the rain. it was cool, but i noticed its hard to get noticed in videos. i wanted to stand out so i did a crazy ass paint scheme. all free. my buddy wanted to learn to paint, i wanted it done free...boom. i cant wait till it's all done. sure it won't be a show bike but i think it looks cool as shit

Lookin' pretty aint just for the fans but it helps to keep you and your ride safe. Keeping your bike in good working/looking order is half the job. It's easier to catch something wrong and easier to fix your bike if you can see whats wrong. Don't get me wrong, fur is cheap but it aint going on this bike. My paint isn't anything special, its flat primer black with a rattle can tuch up. Cheap paint so if I do crack it up I'm not going to sit there and cry about it but it still looks good (in my opinion).

I like having a good looking bike, but for a stunt bike it dosen't make sense to spend a bunch of money on it. I just got done doing a spray paint job and it looks decent. A good 20/20 bike.

minty is for shure nice to have...... i personaly think that when you ride a minty bike you are at a next level like you went threw the learning and crashing a lot (crunchie) then you moved to the next level (minty) so i do think that it will do good for the sport to have more minty bikes but it will sill be nice to see a crunchie bike every so often to remind you of what you went threw to get to where you are now! just my

A nice clean bike is very appealing to most people... a beat to shit bike looks like you wreck all the time....
