Parts you need most often?
Tubes, I have had the worst luck with flat tires this year...I had 3 in one week last month. Fucking annoying.

Do you have a hook up for most parts?
Yes, all Simple parts, direct from Niels...!

Do you care about the looks of your bike?
For sure, it rides better for some stupid reason...

Does it have to roll smooth all the time?
Guaranteed...but as dad used to say: "Tight is tight"

What tire pressure do you run?
Around 90psi or something...I think...

Thanks to: Niels (Thanild) from Simple BMX. Everything fits and rolls so good, this must be for sure the best setup I have ever had, besides from my Minerva of course. Vans for shoes and apparel...nothing better then a good pair of shoes with a solid bike...
