Your front end is set-up pretty tall. Are you trying to save your back, increase your pop, or both?
It just ended up that way, not really got anything to do with my back or pop

What parts do you go through the fastest?
Probably grips.

How often do work on your bike?
Just when something needs fixing.

I heard you just learnt how to lace a wheel, congratulations.
Yeah,I thought after riding BMX for 15 years it was about time I learned how to do it.

When setting up your bike, what is the order of importance for you: looks, weight, and strength?
I just make sure every thing’s dialed and running smooth.
