Nice bikes,how much was the 16" if you dont mind me asking.

They’re some cool machines!

ooo yeah... R6.1 Hadley! That's the final run of 108 point hubs if I'm not mistaken. They're still the trickest sounding hubs alive.

If you're going to replace the stickers on the 40's, why not go for a new paint job with a colour change? Maybe a matching red?

why is the roller on the box guide up soo high??

is it because the frame has alot of rearward travel??

I was thinking about a paint job.. but i dont have the money to get them done and i actually like the primer grey colour of them anyway.
As for the hub, it was actually a 72point when i got it, but swapped the freehub body to a 108....
I also have a 108 on my hardtail... gotta have the good stuff.

found a pic of my hardtail... only chance is an El Camino brake on the rear now..

Nice pics man. you're a bastard. plain n simple.

The 16 looks cool with the blue bits, are they your old twisted pro's? As for painting the 40's I wouldn't do it, the grey matches the rims. Unless you were gonna do the 40's in the cammo too... now there's a thought...
