Re: 2006 FBM Bitchin Camaro

damn chris, it came out real nice, your going to feel bad for getting it dirty on the track. i am still cant figure out what i am going to be riding.


when i see a mongoose at walmart, i try and picture the metal being used to make something more useful, like a frying pan, or maybe some clothes hangers...oh well...its out of my hands.

Re: 2006 FBM Bitchin Camaro

Thanks LTG. I'm not worried about it getting dirty. I can clean that. I'm worried about the bike (and me) after the first time I case a jump. yikes Ouch!!
If you're still looking for a bike, we just got some Redline Flight Pros, Redline Prolines and some DK Chargers. Or, if you can wait a little while, Sam said he was going to start carrying SE bikes. Like your new signature.

The frames are. I just put these Redline forks on because I couldn't find a set 1-1/8" Landing Gear.
Try DANS COMP or FBM.com

Found some LG's!!

Re: 2006 FBM Bitchin Camaro

hey comay, i saw your post on the new track. i'm moving to biloxi and could use some help on getting a new school ride. i don't know much about new bikes but i know yours look very cool. i went to the shop the other day for like the first time in 20+ years and they all looked the same ,black on black. any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. very cool bike even has a 80's name. bitchin camaro was the name of a song by the dead milkmen, if i remember correctly.

Alex, the wheels were pretty pricey. Let's put it this way . . . they were almost as much as the frame (more with shipping). No employee discount on these puppies. But, these things will spin for ever and a day. The wheel set came built up. All I had to do was change the cassette cog. I have to plead ignorance on the Dead Milkmen. I've heard of them but the song sounded nothing like I thought it would.

Onelove, you ought to! This frame is pretty awesome. Strong, light and built in the U.S.A. Oh yeah, are you going to the get together Lambohaha and OTHERVOICEZ are planning for Sept. 15 in Tallahassee?

That's the one lambo. I talked my friend Mike into comin along to Tallahassee so I'll be able to bring my Floval and new Schwinn as well. He's got a F-250 as opposed to my Maxima.
