Default New Kerminator Pics - Block is Cracked Though..

We found a nice hairline fracture when reassembling the block going into an oil passage. The block is toast, I am going to be putting together a new combination this week. Bigger and better!

Here's a couple of pics with the new UMI chromemoly a-arms, mickey thompson 26x4.5x15 tires and the wheelie bars on the ground.

That's what I was afraid of... when you got into the damage that had occured I kinda had a feelign this was a possibility.

But, it's an excuse to go bigger. Crank and rods are probably o.k.

Is there any reason you went with 26" skinnys instead of 28s?
