Parts you go through most often?Dan: pedal pins..........
What do you carry with you when you go out on a street ride?
Dan: Ipod, Money, Couple of Tubes, 17mm Socket and carton of Mango juice....
The decals are looking different/fresh. Who came up with that idea?Dan: It was a joint effort between myself and the graphic designer at Federal (Elwood Ruffle). I wanted to try something different as far as frame graphics go, and he put in the work to come up with the design. Big thanks to Elwood for that.
Are you picky on how the bike rolls?
Dan: Urm..... I like everything to be running smooth, but sometimes it's hard like when you're on trips and stuff to keep your bike perfectly main
tained...... The way your bike feels when you 1st set it up is the way I like it but it never stays that way for long...hahaYou don't mind if there's a spoke missing?
Dan: I'm not gonna lose sleep over it but it does jar my head a bit. I'm no good whatsoever at straightening wheels and things like that so my boy JO form Joe-Tek helps me out with that.
What tire pressure do you run?
Dan: Anything between 65-70 psi.........
What are the modifications you made to your bike?
Dan: None as of such, obviously just cut my bars down a little bit. I love it when kids get all aggro coz I cut down my own bars.
