Cranks: Primo Hollowbites with TI spindle, get the Eastern grim reaper TI frame, get the G- sport ratchet hub, Odyssey director forks, KHE dirt tires front and rear, Demolition PA bars, thats all I got so far.
This whole thread is full of bad suggestions. The worst was the KHE Specter. Yeah, sanko cromo is a great deal for $450. Except for the suggestion of getting a sunday, that would definately be your best bet.
why the hell would any one get a sunday there a company that doesnt think of 1 new thing only thing they changed was paint to coloring and painting, he also metioned he wanted to keep his bike light
Why change what's good. You're right, they don't change up their frames a whole bunch, because the geo is good, and they are tanks. But now they do have built in chain adjusters, built in pivotal post (on the Ian), and they are lighter (5 pounds really isn't heavy at all.) All in all, your comment was just plain naive and stupid. Sunday also has the best warranty to boot. And to me (and anyone alse that rides even remotely hard), a warranty is pretty damn important. Enjoy, and have a nice day.
Ultra-light street and park designed frame made from 100% 4130 Sanko chromoly featuring an integrated headtube drilled for gyro tabs, small diameter toptube for weight savings, internally fluted seattube, removable brake mounts and cable guides, curved seatstay bridge, externally machined Mid BB shell and 5mm thick dropouts.
Ha ha, that actually made me laugh out loud. First of all he said he wanted light and strong and by no means will this be as strong as a frame that's 4.5 pounds and over. Second, the chainstays are stupidly short so have fun lying on your back. Next, even though the frame has a super short seat tube the bottom bracket is sticking out like on most flatland frames. If you bash that on a ledge it's sure to do some damage. Lastly, it only comes in the toptube size of 20.43 inches so you have nothing for options with that. Sorry if I sound like a jerk but I'm trying to advise that this frame would not be a good choice.
Besides, this thread is very pointless and is obviously going to be full of biased and different opinions. There isn't really such a thing as a "best part" because it all depends on what type of rider you are and what appeals to you. Do your own research first and try and determine what will work best for you.

I think it might be intended for flatland. Look at the head tube angle, its steep as hell.
