    Love him! Tires and all. Is the yellow thing on the handlebars a headlight? It looks like a toy alien.

    I think it's a bell. It looks like a tea pot.

    I'd steal your bike just for those tires. (you probably think I'm kidding- you better lock him up tight)

    I *LOVE* Scar! He's a bada*s. I'm going to have to look at those tires. I love the reflectivity. Very cool!

    I like my kevlar tires too much to switch, but I love the Hulk Hogan flames, and the reflective thing is irresistible! So then I thought-- reflective paint?

    God help my bikes the day I figure out how to paint 'em well.

    It's a teapot bell. I was on dealextreme.com looking to see if they had a tripod mount for handlebars and saw the teapot bells...

    Scar also has LED lights that will be installed on his wheels that flash in various patterns, but I haven't tried that yet.

    I will have to commute at night just to be able to see that.

    oooh, I can SEE that - as others have said, Scar is one bad azz bike! I've seen those LED lights online that can be programmed to flash in different designs and so forth - seeing him coming at you at night with those tires and flashy lights on the wheels... Hmmm, especially on darker streets I can see someone who has had a bit too much to drink thinking that the aliens have finally landed
