Eh, true. I was guessing pricepoint.com for AVID disks = $150, then the rest for the disk-ready hubs that dont come w/the bike...then spokes...then AT LEAST a spoke tool, or money to get it laced and trued.

dude you shoulda asked on here if it came with the disc ready hubs, it doesn't make sense to add an expensive part to a bike if your prolly not gonna use it...


anywho, you can just buy complete rims and hubs from ebay-izzle

Yea yea, I was just responding to the guy that got one w/o disks. Someone mentioned that he could always toss a set on, but I was saying its alot more expensive than that.

Also, have you been to pricepoint.com? They have all sorts of shit at eBay prices but its a real store so no fear of getting ripped off.

as for the disc, yea, it'll cost more, but I plan on upgrading the forks first, I plan on doing more jumps and trails, then after that I'll worry about the disc brakes, but honestly by then I'll probably have a different bike, this bike was just something cheap to see if I really wanted to spend the money on the high end stuff, and I think I've decide to go all out.

[QUOTE=soad]how much money are you willnig to spend?[/QUOTE]

for the forks Im looking at around $400-500, then after that I'll be upgrading other things on the bike, then I'll buy a new frame, so its going to be a little bit of money once everything is said and done.

[QUOTE=GundamnitPete]CKxx you should uplaod a small video of some stoppies[/QUOTE]

My best stoppies are only like 3-4 average parking spaces, but ive never even tried on my own bike.(i dont have one w/front brakes) Thats just from 10-15min at a time on this other kids hardrock. (EDIT: I need to get the AVID's still, stock hardrock disks SUCK.)

Sooner or later I will make a vid. I just got a copy of Adobe Premeire, so im trying to put somthing together, but its mostly of my friends. I met some kids here at college that ride coasters like its nothing. One kid here is 15 and on this massive hill he can roll a sitdown the whole way, then once hes got mad speed (at the bottom of the hill) get to 12'oc or beyond to slow it down. I've seen the kid get sooooo deep that the back tire lost traction and slid out, but his ass only fell like 6 inches to the ground.

This other kit has a BigHit and jumps of shit you cant even imagine.

Anyway...Once i get all that on tape ill load it up, but that wont be too soon.

3-4 parking spaces is like 30-40 feet depending on how spaced apart they are.
