    The bars are Fireeye FE-254. They have a 2 inch rise. The Caliber bars are pretty sweet also. I am putting th 50's on my Griffin. Griffin pics to come soon.

    Nice clean build for sure, looks pretty stellar.

    1st upgrade I would do if it were mine would ditch the hayes and get some Avid Juicy 7's.

    nice. looks way better without those awful decals. fireeye seems like they have some good ideas but their graphics and name alone look like they came from walmart at best. cool bikes though none the less.

    I hear ya, I think at my weight and size I may be a good test for any frame, and this little frame is taking plenty of punishment.
    If only Walmart sold bikes like these we wouldn't have to pay over inflated bike prices...

    How much do these bikes weigh? Under 30 pounds? Under 40?

    My black Bloodshot frame is in the mail.

    Sweet bikes!
