oh shit you're right i never even thought about that. My bf has a ton of old broken levers that still have perfectly good perches. plus the bracket we started seemed to grow legs and dissapeared haha so thanks i'm definitely gonna try that out.

lol thank you, i appreciate it! I think we've got it figured out now but if worst comes to worst and it doesn't work right, i'll definitely be in touch with you if you still have it. My bf's brother is always down around the trenton area, his buddy has a big warehouse that they use to work on their offroad trucks. if I can't get down there I could see if he could meet up with you.

hi robyn! im gettin' there lol but im trying! getting a lot better with the fb but its time to mix it up a little. a little frustrated at times im not further along.. having too much fun to stop lol but sometimes it's a little hard to look at other riders for motivation and not compare myself to their progress, even when I know that everyone learns and progresses differently. my bf keeps reminding me that most people had a lot more riding experience just in general when they start, where i really didnt at all- but i feel like im just making excuses when i say/think that. womp womp oh well just more fuel to the motivational fire haha
