Have a great and safe weekend everyone.

That's what he was talking about for 280 a piece. I'll look into it more over the weekend when I have time.

Tell him to fuck off and do it yourself.

I don't know enough to do it myself. If I did, then I wouldn't need to have someone else do it.

Your R1 doesn't have inverted forks?
