I know everyone is going to coment on the tiny plates, yeah, they are small, but i love them, it eliminates my no footers but its great for hoping and it reduces weight, both plates are less than one bedford plate. since they are so skinny, they also will not bend very easyily.
here are the specs:
Tryall 26" Rim
Tryall 26" Red rim strip
Tryall 26" 2.0 tire
Dt 258mm spokes
Odyssey Hazard Sealed 14mm Hub (very very nice)
EB Plates (haha)
The plates are made out of 1/2" .035 1430 tubing and the plate is 3/16" 4130.
Yeah, I wear size 12s funny enough. Anyhow, yeah, you gota kinda work to keep your feet on but it works great, also the bolt isnt quite high enough to hit oyut ankle, though i did drop the plates 1/2" more than bedfords so you dont get any foot pain whatsoever, its a freakin dream to ride.
The welding credits go to my freind Mike Jewet who helped me out, I could have done them myself but he is better, faster, and less likly to screw up the welds like i am. It was too much milling and cutting to screw up.
those plates are cool, are the slippery because they don’t have grip tape though
can u grind a bc wheel with those plates?
how much would a pair of ur plates cost? i want some, there awsome looking

Yeah, im planing on welding on some pins for grip. The plates WERE wider, infact they were 5" wide, thats aobut 1" wider than your foot, it was really comfortable to ride but i figured it would kill oyu in tricks, also thats just too much leverage against the main weld. Il put up the pics in a lil, they looked like bat ears or somehting, Im planing on making another 2 sets for ny other bcs, they may be wider.
