    The Silver Bullet

    Something a little different.
    My winter project has been to strip my trx 300 and galv the frame and everything else that can be galved. Hence the name Silver Bullet.

    Sticks like shit to a bike frame. Funny that!
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    they are great simple bikes, we used them on the orchard for years, the next week point is their back diffs so dont go pulling a heavy trailer round and she should last years and years.

    cool idea on the galving
