Post by: bobbbbsy on November 26, 2012, 10:25 PM: spent 10 mins binning the more worthless crap. chains with no quicklink are gay !

spec-
lee chi's of the pootest order(kept the brake bolts and a few bits)
poo crank(fat one side) had one before
poo purple seat
25.4 stubby seatpost(dented)
seatclamp chromed on bike ? stuck on and raw steel underneath!
spaz tyres(came off with no levers)
all gone in the bin !

rims/ lovely pink
hubs-generic steel poo
haro / vector cruiser bars ;)
headset seems ok
only found one dent on frame / no cracks

its not as heavy as i expected !

might just clean the fooker up, get rid of the pink, replace a few bits and put it back on the bay!

get some pics tomoz.
got the serial number but everything point to it beaing a kiddy pos!
