All it needs is a new front disc hub (the old owner drilled the threads to save weight). He was happy with the Toxin until I told him Cordyboy was on a Meta. Now he wants a Meta. Maybe next year I will get him one.

Thanks, as soon as my youngest is big enough (or I find him a used 205 Monty) he will be getting the Toxsin. Right now he still rides his bmx (he's 6) and he thinks he is better than Dave Herr.

Good to see, lucky kid!

Regarding the front hub, could you get longer rotor bolts and use nuts on the back side of the disc flange? I would try it if the rear side of the flange is flat. Just an idea...

Nope, he used a cordless drill and ovaled the holes to get as much weight out of them. He has a thing for drills and weight I guess:)

I showed him your vids Tobe and told him that I ride better than you because you suck!

My kids are going to hate me when they find out that I really suck on the bicycle and not you.

I wish my dad hooked me up with a trials bike when I was a kid.
