    Correct tire pressure?

    i dont fiddle with the gauges and psi partly cuz i dont have one that works :lol: and i just fill it till it looks right and feels right. so many variables to have one definitive answer. if it rides like a cadillac, you got it right. but if it rides like a 4x4 jeep, well, you need to fix that...

    Freewheel Vs. Coaster

    coaster. i get the same effect from a well-built coaster hub as i do the best hand brakes. plus, no brake rub, no fiddling with cables or gyros, and it has a clean look. oh! and it works the same in any weather, unlike hand brakes, even disc brakes.

    "Most over done trend?"

    its not like i dont like flat black, i love it! its just the annoying over-use of flat black, red wheels and whitewalls is what i dont like. even from the begining i knew it was over played. i mean flat black and whitewalls is cool, flat black and red is ok, but all of em together drives me nuts.
