So I'm looking at the '17 Sweettooth Pro. And boy is it light. 23 pounds. I'm a Street and flatland rider mostly. I've read that these frames will snap riding Street. Has anybody heard bad things about Colony completes, what's your impression on this bike? Any advice helps before I make a big purchase, thanks people

I take that back. I actually just found out, some of those frames are prone to spontaneous combustion, if you ride "street". Just take it very easy, and you should be OK. Might void your warranty tho.

I got mine cheap for $500 when it's usually about $750. There's none left where I got mine but they are currently on sale at luxbmx.com. Luxbmx is Australian site though so I don't know how much shipping would be for you if you got it

if your friend is riding for them then he probably is using their aftermarket parts and not the complete low end parts line so of course they'll hold up a lot more.
Never ridden a colony part so can't give advice on the matter but do take that into consideration as this guy needs info on the quality of the complete he wants to buy not the quality of the aftermarket parts your sponsored friend rides.

It's a top of the line complete. Unless your doing 10 foot roof drops it will be fine.
I think our educational system has failed us. I hope at least one person sees how funny this shit is. At least it cracked me up...
