Hi all I recently purchased a 2006 cowan which i use for Dirt jumps and street and I was wondering if there was components on my bike I should upgrade. I recently bought a new rear rim and a new singlespeed hub. Any Help would be apreciated, thanks for your time :)

Well if you have ss, then maybe you could look at getting a half-link chain

make sure your crankset is solid, and your pedals are not just stock, they tend to bend pretty easily. Other then that, yeah rear hub and rims are a good idea

The stock ditch witch rims are fairly weak. They would probably be the first thing I'd upgrade. Look into rims like Sun MTX, Mag 30s, Atomlab Trailpimps and other strong ones.

The bike will be pretty solid for dirt jumping and some street one you have done that. Not much else is needed unless you have a lot of money to blow.
