6yrs ago I met a good friend by the name of Mike better known as "six-o" in the messenger industry. We both loved bikes and paintball. Mike rode dh, We began hanging and playing paintball. I mostly rode bmx and wanted to get into mtb. I couldn't afford a good mtb, Mike gave me his v1 transition bottle rocket and said here's a gift I'll help you build it. I know it's an old bike, but I love it. He began to teach me about gears, parts, setups and such. 2yrs ago my friend was killed by cops and I didn't want to ride anymore. But today I am more determined to finishing building this bike in his honor.
