    NO THANK YOU…if you had not post pics of your other rides I would have never got the feeling to do a single speed build. I will not be able to dump money on the parts like I did with the Cuda having high end parts, carbon this and Ti that….but I bet it will still be a fun bike to ride around the neighborhood with the kids and still be able to run over and through stuff. And truth be told I think single speed will be more my style because I never really used alot of those gears…think about it I live in Florida,like I really need a granny gear…I am use to climbing in and out of sinkholes with 100+ pounds of gear on me…I could jump off my 19 pound bike and run up the hill with it on my back faster than riding it..so a single speed where I have to mash the gears abit should not be all that bad.

    Love the look with the Spins on the bike but the rim I had dreams of was the Spinergys but I bought the king Hubs and had them laced up with Dt revolution spokes which in the end made a wheelset that had less weight and stronger…I did not have to worry about snaping carbon spokes. But I still love the look of carbon wheelsets.
    ….Yes I know….had the wheelsets built for me….would love to learn doing it myself one day

    I disagree with all drugs….POT with no man made additives just makes you mellow or act a little stupid. Man made junk has a bad habit of killing or turning the brain to silly puddy.

    Just remember T has a stable of thoroughbred Cudas…not a ring I would care to throw a hat into,though it would be nice to have that many sweet Cuda bikes. I like Don’s pack because there is a different flavor for what ever mood you are in which gives each ride its own unique trait….

    I won’t lie…I did the stuff when I was in my teens and with them talking about that I think it would bring in more money from taxes and such just like cigarettes so why not…might help cut some crime from it being legal and it can not cause more trouble than folks that drink and drive…which really would be another way of making money if someone gets pulled over for driving while stone…DWS.
    So I say spark it up to those that enjoy…hell I get a kick out of watching drunk and stone folks,it can be funny at times..plus thinking about the dumb things I did as a kid…

    I thought the frame was bad ass looking plus the brand name was cool,but I rode a Cannondale road bike so I was thinking Killer V to stay with all Dales in the early to mid 90’s. Few years past and I bought my sweetspot and rode that for a few when I thought about giving Mtb racing a try and at the time the thought was Hardtail for a Xc bike and the shop owner that sold the Cuda’s stop using his to switch to Kona hardtails…after all Cuda’s were no longer sold. Sorry I do not remember which it was but his frame was from what he told me a higher end model than my Comp but it was to big so I bought his wifes frame. I built my Cuda with the thought just to see if I like riding hardtails over Fs with the thought that if I like it I would build a REAL nice bike….and it was LOVE at first spin of the pedal.
    Must say that even though I love the bike it took a few runs to change riding styles from the Fs to the hardtail..it beat me to death because I was use to being in the saddle more with the fs once I realized I had to be out of the saddle all was golden.

    MAN YOU GUYS ARE SO LUCKY….I love Florida but it would be cool to run around stuff like that.
    My wifes family is good old Georgia rednecks and the first time up to their land I had dreams of REAL mountain riding….I cried when I got there because it is only about 30 miles over the Florida Georgia line…it was the same as dear old home …
