I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way.So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness.

Or if it's still in KMs then it's due a cambelt.

he hasnt sold it, but maybe its too tuned and might be risky?
i have about 1000-1500 to spend, originally i had up to 1k, but i figured if i wanted a turbo i would have to up the budget a bit!
thanks,
