black is the new black

I've swapped out my frame, cranks, grips, and cables to black ones. So, my machine is now mostly black with some brown anodized bits (stem, sprocket, seatclamp). Very clean. I weighed it at a local shop: 21.8lbs with two brakes and a detangler (no pegs). My PK Ripper weighs 25lbs with mags. Thinking about getting the PK's seattube bored out for a 25.4 post (it has a 22.2).
Selling my old parts to a local kid who I think just wants a Wade bike.
Had my best session since 2004 on Wednesday night. Three hours long, pulling lots of new stuff. Fun.
BMX is still my go-to, best, happiest thing.
