So my Colony Agenda Non-Folding Tire finally is about to break on me. I noticed a bubble in the sidewall and I was a little freaked out at first but the fact I had this tire well over 8 months really made me feel good about myself, not that I wore out a part but the fact I finally put something to good use instead of trading it off or selling it for cheap. I am honestly thinking of emailing colony or posting to their facebook page and just saying how I feel about how much I like the products.

So have any of you felt this way about a certain part that you know you've put to good use and managed to have for a while before it started failing on you?

damn, that sucks, but what I was trying to say is, that I got my moneys worth out of my Colony Tire. I do not have money for new parts either currently

My Demolition Momentums. 2 years before I CHOSE to replace them. Even with Peg use.

That or really anything I have had. I love getting parts everyone says break like nothing and having them last a stupid long amount of time. Makes me happy smile

no I am just saying I got my moneys worth instead of just getting rid of it. I have worn out many parts.
stems
bars
grips
hubs
forks
cranks (even snapped some stock fits)
pegs
brake levers (lol)
brake cables

and some others

I'm still running a 2yr old stock salt rear wheel on my practice bike, the fucking thing just keeps going, its never skipped on me and I've only had to true it once, and tighten the spokes twice, I'm not a soft rider either its took a beating and keeps coming back for more, I kinda love it.

My odyssey hawk tire lasted a lot. My grips, odi longneck xl, seems to last long. I cracked my bars really bad after 1 year and a bit more. My pc pedals are lasting quite long, like 1 year and 8 months i think. My chain is lasting aswell.

I never feel that way about a part, purely because I never trade parts/ get rid of parts that still work fine.
