Dont forget to remove the fork springs, they are a bit heavy. If the whole Mag Lev thing is too difficult, you can always go for the proven 1 spoke solution. I.e. Remove 39 spokes from each wheel.
This, plus replace heavy hub with a teflon-tape spindle.

I am following all of these steps but am not sure how my bike is going to function. Just tried the no handlebar thing and it is pretty tough just holding onto the triple top. So I removed it. Now I am just holding onto the forks (like a hetero man)....and it wobbles before I hit the "ton". My bike is super light, and super fast....everyone wants to be like me, all women orgasm when I look into their eyes. My bike is so light lite fast superfast that I accidentally flew. Like off the ground. The clouds taste funny. On my last ride I bumped into Soichiro. He gave me a high five and told me my bike looked super fast and that I should remove all of the spokes and use a hub less magnet levitation system. So now that's how I'm rolling. Of course I drilled holes in the magnets to keep them light. Working on an electromagnetic system now. Pics soon. Thanks for all the help guys.



Hey Frankie, next time you run into Soichiro, mention this thread and ask why HE didn't think of all this cool stuff during R&D.....SLACKER!!!! ;D

Umm, excuse me. Is this the five minute argument or the full half hour?
'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Draw and drawer. Could care less/couldn't care less. Bought/brought FFS.

At this point, I suspect it's the value pack.  ;D

Here it is... The one spoke mag. And it's for a Fixie... So you know it's fast.

Come on guys... where are all the pix for these mods?

Now cut off two spokes from each rim. Go!
