    Describe your personal bike setup.
    Two pegs, no brakes, normal bars; regular, I guess.

    Describe the contents of your personal bike tool bag.
    If I carry one, I like to have the necessary tools for changing a flat tire.

    What part do you wear through the quickest?
    Pedals.

    What part do you break most often? 
    Pedals.

    Do you patch flat tires or get new tubes?
    I’ll do either.

    Which parts are you paranoid about breaking? 
    Snapping forks would suck.

    Where do your parts go when you’re done with them? 
    Friends.

    Who builds your wheels? Anything special about them?
    Fetco at City BMX in Louisville, KY builds them the best.

    Cassette or freecoaster?
    Cassette, I don’t think I would like a freecoaster longer than a few minutes.

    Left side drive or right side drive?
    LSD.

    Kevlar bead or regular bead?
    Either works for me.

    Plastic pedals or metal? 
    Plastic pedals work fine and don’t hurt as much.
