tilt the nose of your seat down and it will relieve a lot of pressure this is a helpful tip for when you get-around to lowering you stem.

Bridgestone sweetness>

Submitted by blackisback on 05/27/2007.

Awesome build up....Careful with that saddle though.
I ride Kashimax 5 Golds and they are a lot less harsh on the grundle area.

Rough

Submitted by xtofuconsumerx on 05/30/2007.

Yeah I went on a 18mile ride this past weekend and it killed me. The only problem is my seatpost is a 33mm rail so I think I am going to have to try and work my brooks to make it fit.

Shimizu is probably the

Submitted by hockeyteeth on 05/19/2007.

Shimizu is probably the rider's last name. I've seen people with that last name before (i.e. Daniel Shimizu who rides for Foundation Skateboards), so I would reckon it is not his first name.

Foundation

Submitted by xtofuconsumerx on 05/20/2007.

Yeah I figured Shimizu was the last name because I too remembered Daniel Shimizu from the Foundation: Art Bars Subtitle and Seagulls video a long time ago.

Nice

Submitted by David Laburglier on 05/19/2007.

Damn, man. Not only did you get the frame I wanted, but you built it with the same wheelset that I'm getting for my purple Bridge-inspired KHS (and my paintjob came out a lot darker). Dis ain't my day!

So sorry

Submitted by xtofuconsumerx on 05/19/2007.

Yeah I snagged this frame off of Keirin Culture's Web site as fast as I could.
