Oh wow, I didn't know that was an FBM too!

Looks like you and Lestus are the coolest kids I know

I guess it's my turn to get an FBM but I already have a T1, guess I'll just raw and clear it to be one of the cool kids

jamie12345 (Oct 11, 2010 at 3:10)

Nah its all about the factory raw. Weld marks for the victory.

JokerMachine (Oct 11, 2010 at 5:06)

This makes me sad

jamie12345 (Oct 11, 2010 at 6:07)

Build your own frame from some crazy blend of ti and morphine, giving you the desired raw look, and when you crash you can just lick it for pain relief.

JokerMachine (Oct 11, 2010 at 13:40)

That makes like no sense

The mere presence of the term "ti" makes me even sadder.

jamie12345 (Oct 11, 2010 at 14:10)

Why so good sir?

JokerMachine (Oct 11, 2010 at 20:07)

I dunno. I'd never ride a Ti frame. I'd probably never break one, but I'd be all neurotic about it breaking and would never want to go all hardcore on it because I'd be afraid of it breaking.

It's kinda like those bars with holes drilled in the grip area. I'd never run those, even though I've never broken a set of bars. Just.... fuсk that shit, no thanks. Gut reaction, ya know?

jamie12345 (Oct 11, 2010 at 23:39)

Yeah I get what you mean, I'd run a milkshake frame, but no other.

kc4130 (Oct 10, 2010 at 11:29)

Nicest bike on pinkbike IMO.

jamie12345 (Oct 10, 2010 at 12:24)

Nah theres some killer stuff on here. And Lestus' FBM

kc4130 (Oct 10, 2010 at 12:25)

Nah this is the definition of killer.

jamie12345 (Oct 10, 2010 at 12:32)

Why thank you! Hopefully I'll have an edit some time soon too.

kc4130 (Oct 10, 2010 at 12:34)

Sweet, I want to make a more upto date one when my ankles better

jamie12345 (Oct 10, 2010 at 12:44)

Yeah I can't wait to get this thing in a park, spins like a beast.

kc4130 (Oct 10, 2010 at 12:46)

Yeah i must say it does look so nice to ride!

jamie12345 (Oct 10, 2010 at 12:48)

Get yo'self to Cardiff and see for yourself!

kc4130 (Oct 10, 2010 at 13:25)

jamie12345 (Oct 10, 2010 at 13:27)

This is 10 mins ride from cardiff central station, and the street around it is decent too. www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=shredwales.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/cardiff1.jpg&imgrefurl=shredwales.com/cardiff

kc4130 (Oct 10, 2010 at 13:30)

kc4130 (Oct 10, 2010 at 13:39)

Mmmmmmm, Be there in 5

haha.

lettusdude (Oct 12, 2010 at 22:47)

A little late, but yeah, my FBM is pretty dang nice. This is nice as well.

jamie12345 (Oct 13, 2010 at 0:13)

Yeah I don't think we can really say one is better than the other because they are both specced perfectly for different riding styles. However you get credit for inspiring this build.

lettusdude (Oct 13, 2010 at 21:36)

Well I'm glad I inspired you to get a custom FBM. I couldn't be happier with mine and I assume you feel the same way about yours.

jasonJr (Oct 10, 2010 at 13:55)

Nice bike what frame is that did you strip off the paint or did it come like that

jamie12345 (Oct 10, 2010 at 13:56)

It's a custom built FBM, and it came like this.

trustsoldier (Oct 11, 2010 at 14:16)

joker is a baby, your bike is K1LL, sooo sick, FBM handmade in amurrrrrica, not soviet russia, where bike rides you.

jamie12345 (Oct 11, 2010 at 14:20)

Well I have no alliance to either America or Russia, but Russian oil keeps me warm at night so.......

JokerMachine (Oct 11, 2010 at 20:05)

WTF kind of crack are you smoking? Nobody's making fun of anyone, and I ride a frame that handmade in America as well, albeit by MAAS Specialties for Terrible One.

trustsoldier (Oct 11, 2010 at 14:21)

haha im just being a douchehole im sorry haha . your bike is sick, if you couldnt tell he was making fun of you. ha

jamie12345 (Oct 11, 2010 at 14:26)

Meh Joker's cool, I can take a joke or two as long as its from civilised humans not the 12 year old fags who seem to be over running us these days.

trustsoldier (Oct 11, 2010 at 14:29)

haha yeah i hear ya, sorry for my douchery, i am not even physically capable of hate, i am from canada....haha!

jamie12345 (Oct 11, 2010 at 14:32)

So you would describe your feelings towards nazi regime, or terrorism as nothing more than mild discontempt? If you arer incapable of hate?

bamfbmx (Oct 10, 2010 at 10:48)

your bike has got to be one of my favorite bikes on here

jasonJr (Oct 10, 2010 at 23:00)

Nice does it have clear coat on it to stop it from rusting.

jamie12345 (Oct 10, 2010 at 23:38)

Yes.

mrnozzer (Oct 23, 2010 at 11:12)

looking sick, hopefully mine will look that good soon

giggidy (Nov 1, 2010 at 16:41)

how come you bought it with cable guides if you aint running brakes?

jamie12345 (Nov 2, 2010 at 1:11)

I will be running brakes, FBM forot to put removable mounts in the box, they are on their way to me now.

cody6 (Oct 10, 2010 at 10:13)

sick bike man

evantrambley (Oct 10, 2010 at 19:30)

trade me?

jamie12345 (Oct 10, 2010 at 23:40)

Further up this was described as the best bike on pinkbike, so why would I trade for something else on pinkbike which, by default, will not be as good
