^^^^ Never liked Thomson BMX stems. Is the extra bracing needed between the stays? Also no pivotal and big sprocket?

Extra tube between the stays is to add stiffness, it's a custom frame. Thompson post and Fit eccd seat are way nicer than any pivotal options out there. It's got a custom Ti 12t driver on the Chris king hub, no need to go any smaller if you're not using pegs and want your chain to last.
As already said it's a nokon cable.
I don't think it's exclusively a trails bike (despite the breaks)

Extra tube between the stays won't do much to add stiffness, it's a custom frame. Thompson post and Fit eccd seat are not way nicer than any pivotal options out there and thompson kit has no place on a bmx, a pivotal would be nicer. It's got a custom Ti 12t driver on the Chris king hub, a profile hub would have done.
As already said it's a nokon cable.
I don't think it's exclusively a trails bike (so should have a break)
ftfy
having said all that, it fucking lush and I really haven't seen a bmx look that good in ages. 33t sprockets ftw. might just change the seat for an al black pivotal and the stem for a s&m race xlt. not sure how pissed s&m would be at the use of drop outs very similar to their WTF frame on a standard custom, but my god it looks good.

owner: they much more superior, and the bearings are soo smooth... best buy ever, never to be regretted. and the njs stamp assures of certain quality.
non-owner: there is none.
Lol, I used to have the Neuvo but wasn't totally sure of the differences. Good pedals.

Unveiled for competition at last.
Sorry late in the game. One of the nicest modern TT frames i've seen in ages. Something about that toptube just gets me. Agree about the cranks though

I think gonna go back to single straps. Doubles get on my tits a bit. I have been toying with putting SPDs on my track bike but I know that when I'm nipping between, say, the coffee place and the park, or between the artisan shoemaker's and my pilates class, I'll prefer to wear civvy shoes.
Nonce Mr men shoes thread is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> way.

it's owned by the owner of a company that does loads of custom bits for bmx so is more of a look at how good my work is than a practical bmx.
If i had the money i'd be all over a chris king, profiles are pretty shit if we're honest.
