Just stop it already!

My friend Aaron at Solid has offered to make me a custom frame with dual top tubes, with any angles or features that I want. Jeebus. And as D'Arcy won't be likely making me a similar offer ever ever ever, I'm considering it.
Or maybe dual down tubes? Or, with a looptail, the same two tubes start and end at the headtube! Chromed?
Of course, if I do this, I'll have to switch to mags.

MAGS!

All I think about are mag wheels. I don't need the performance of good wheels anymore, so can't I have the style of black graphite Tuff Wheels? Jeebus they look cool.
Problems: heavier, flexy, brakes don't work as well, and have to run massive sprockets (at least a 36 / 13).
Goodness: sexy!

I still like the colour of my current bike (baby blue Whitton II with all brown MacNeil parts). No desire to paint it. Or even chrome it.

In fact, I think that I should get rid of it. But I also kinda want an all black bike with mags.

The UAB third anniversary event (April 7th) will be my only one of the year. No time. It is thus far sponsored by Profile and Kink.

I reaaly have to stop collecting BMX magazines. The one I buy is such crap. More on this to come.
