I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

yeah. I was looking at Jamis' "freestyle" mountain bikes. I'd just use it for more of a cross trainer.

I bought my fiance a Jamis, and my sister has one. Have been very solid bikes for the both of them, and it doesn't really matter what I'm on....I trash it.

dusted off the bike today, it needs a few new parts, i slashed my grips to pull off my brake lever last time i rebuilt her. anybody have any suggestions on grips? i like softer compounds. i had snafu's before, then got primo's which were pieces of crap.

i got an old FBM angel of death. witha bunch of other older goodies looking to build a completely new bike this spring/fall and get back into it. i want to build something light. looking @ the FIT ED. i run brakeless so i want something super light i can 360 hop or whopper off a curb.
the Fit edwins are pretty nice, my friend has one they arent that light though
and im pretty sure you wont be able to do bunnyhop whips b/c of your bike weight but ya ive got the aitken s2i its pretty nice there is alot of lighter ones out there though.
i dare you to buy this.

I'm running Primo grips. All of my grips get boiled before they go on.
