Favourite part on your bike and why? I love it all! But probably a tie between the bars, forks and chain, they’re funny.

How long have you had the frame for? Uhh, I think well over a year now, FBM dabes.

Do you usually build your bike up or a bike shop? If someone else needs to build your bike, you suck.

What parts on your bike do you go through the most? Probably grips, nothing else breaks, it’s awesome!

If pegs, plastic or metal? Same for pedals? Metal pegs and pedals, I’m gay, but not that gay.

Are you picky with your bike or you don’t really care if it’s loose or makes noises? Kinda picky, kinda lazy, dilligaf m8.

What was your first bike like? $5 Barbie Bike from the school fete! Sprayed it chrome and slapped some fox stickers on, then cased motocross jumps all day and bent everything, aaeeoowww.
