you should paint the frame in your spare time.
sandblast the old paint off, put on some primer, then automotive paint, then a clear coat. baby blue would be nice.

^they look like 26"

I don't really think you need to do much to either of your bikes bro, maybe a bash guard on your dj bike if you use it for urban?

Holy shit those look like heavy motherfuckers. Both of them. The DH bike looks like it could win at chicken with a car. You could definetly lighten up the street bike ALOT. I know those syncros rims arent really neccesary, single tracks are more suitable i think. So much could be done.

yeah. i can tell. But dude i ride single tracks on my street bike and they hold up really well for some reason. S types are good aswell, just the syncros are sooo heavy. You could get lighter in your street bike. Try taking off the front brake comepletely, as i mentioned, the rims, etc. If i looked more carefully theres tons. It could probably be like 27-29 pounds..

baby blue is so hot right now.

id suggest striping all the paint, spend $6850968 dollars on a ti crankset that is .25 lbs lighter, going brakeless, grinding off all your brake studs, drilling your headset, stripping your seat and all other trendwhoreing possibilities


but seriously, i like it.

both them are sick. um on the ht you could just maybe get a new deity seat and then if you wanted your bike to be super pimp you could get white deity bars adn headset ? the fully i would get a new frame like say a shore 3 or team dh or something, you can get them really cheap brand new of ebay theres this one guy who sells alot of them he runs an actual shop. Thats about all i can think of really, but never the less they are sick as they are. O and by the way would you be willling to sell your syncros white wheels on your mob?? cas id buy em off you
