1999 Morales II Poverty issue

heavy duty ground attack machine,improved.

o.k.,this here is the third edition of the morales flatland specific frame,as sold by dan's,who acquired the remainig stock from bob morales,and sold them as poverty bikes,which is their actual line of bikes.these came raw,as in no paint,and I hooked it up to withstand daily abuse and my 200 pound frame.the forks are wilkerson airlines riot model,from 1994,which help create the perfect front angle,due to their short wheelbase.tnt inverted stem,poverty bars,dc tech 77/883 front brake,one piece sugino 165 mm,gt pedals,graphite mtb 31.4 mm seatpost,gt 88 seat(the most comfy one)peregrine super pro high pressure wheels,with a suntour coaster hub,converted to 48,and freecoaster modified,standard axles front and rear(essential),and peregrine rear tire and redline freaky-v,on the front.very good tire,capable of withstanding high pressure and not much rolling resistance,buit with a great grip for scuffing.this is my current bike for flat,besides the sick child.I prefer this one though,and will do shows on this one as well.(as of lately,I cahnged the back wheel to a odyssey hazard lite rim,36h,arestic boo hub,a sealed bearing alloy freecoaster,primo froged spokes,and a khe premium foldable tire.I also switched to a three piece ares alloy cranks,165mm,odyssey plastic platform pedals,and 25t sprocket.these changes shaved like 4 pounds of the complete weight of the bike.I also switched the tnt inverted stem for a s and m redneck,put on a makeshift layback old odyssey post,which i modified a la revcore flagpole.Ride On !
