Just fixed up my uni

[topside]

I've been on a uni for about a month so far but it was in ruin all last week while I was waiting for a new rim. I bought the 24'' united basic model and upgraded the petals right off the bat with some nice platforms I had from mountain biking, it was nice, but the rim bent after some hopping. I ordered up a new Sun 24'' bmx rim and found a tire locally that had a little more tread on it. Last night I finally built it all up, and I have a nice little uni/muni. I've been doing some trail riding but nothing too bumpy, and a lot of hopping. Does anyone know what should be the next thing that may break with more serious off road riding? Well have fun!
I may have some pictures later.

If it has lollipop-style bearing holders, then the next thing to
go will be the frame, which will crack between the two bolts
that hold the bearing-holders in place:

I have been using the fix here for a few months now, and it seems
to be holding up well.

Thanks, I'll be on the lookout for the bearing holders. Here is a picture I managed to take, i have a viscount seat that isn't visible. Nothing too upscale, but I like it anyway.

looks like maincap bearing holders to me but I could be wrong I'm still kinda new to this stuff...

yep main-cap style

Definately main-cap. Future mods might include a seat upgrade. Your current one won't break, but your balls and butt will sing praise.
