i already have a 08 nightrain with the 09 argyle purple fork, spank purple rims, purple chain, demolition black sprocket, khe hindenerg 2 piece black cranks, purple demolition pro pedals, thomson stem, canecreek headset, stolen purple grips and some other goodies..

it looks way better then the 09.. they tried to leave the 08 whie style but everyone knows 09 is purple.. too bad i had it all months before interbike.. Smile

oh and btw.. i f-in love this bike.. I have owned the giant stp jeff lenoski frame and built it up, a dk slugger(selling), and ridden a top, dmr sidekick and transition, and a norco a couple times and my nighttrain by far is the favorite. the geometry is great! this new fork does help it a bunch as well.

but ya ive had mine for a bit over a year now and couldnt imagine not owning it.

i'm pretty sure all the mtb completes come with 14mm rear axles.

Yeah it is short. Its all personal prefferance though. Ive seen 6ft+ guys on bmx and dont complain. Me I have long arms so I like a little longer tt. My ns suburban has a 22.5" tt and is so nice. Just run some 2-3" bars(depending on fork heigth) and it should be cool. If you can ride one first do it.

i want to bump this for more info/opinions on this bike. i came off of a blk mrkt riot with a 21.5TT and a rs argyle 318, so i was hoping someone on here has done the same switch. i havent been on a dj bike since july, so i'm pretty much starting fresh again. i liked the geo of the riot, but love the flickability of a bmx and heard this bike is a good combination of bmx and mtb. as far as strength, i have heard of eastern frames and other parts breaking, anyone have any input on that? i can get a good deal on one of these new thru work, or their cheaper complete (forget the name atm) for the same type of deal. either one will get eventual upgrades (brakes, wheelset, bars/stem, crank in no particular order). Also, from the pics and everything ive read, these are left side drive with left side brakes, correct? i appreciate the responses, i havent been able to find more current info in my searches.
