    - Weight Medium
    - COP=COG

    Parts needed:
    - One BIC Round Stick Cap
    - 2x Pilot G2 Grip
    - 2x Pilot G1 Cap
    - BIC Round Stick (with cap)


    Directions:
    1. Cut of clips from both BIC caps.
    2. Cut of clips from both Pilot G1 caps.
    3. Cut of those little edgings on Pilot G1 caps.
    4. Take out the plug on the back of BIC Round Stick.

    6. Attach both BIC caps to BIC Round Stick body.
    7. Put on the Pilot G2 grips on both BIC caps.

    Pros:
    - Very balanced
    - Durable
    - Good for infinity tricks
    - Really good for spinning (try it)

    - Pieces of BIC caps can be quite disturbing

    It's great for spinning. Try it on your own. If you have any questions, write on board or on my e-mail: [email protected]

    The mod looks alright. If you clean it up it'll look a lot better.

    What do you mean: clean it up?

    It pretty much just means make it a bit neater. If you can, try to get rid of the big bulges made by the cap. Overall I think the mod would be a good spin. But my personal preferance is for pens not to have bulges or anything.

    Are those even bic caps? Is that even a bic stick?

    That bulg is useful for infinity tricks

    In fact, that is Rosenart, not BIC, but only difference beetwen a Rosenart and BIC is, that Rosenart caps are a bit slipper.

    If there Roseart... why is it a bic mod?

    he calls it bic because it can be made with a bic mod, and more people have bics compared to roseart pens

    but still...its a roseart pen...
    roseart mod (can be made with bics too)...haha that should be the title of this...
    but anyways...it looks nice...ya i bet if you chose better colors for the g2 grips
    cuz the caps nicer (idk if you cut the clips of the caps but they look all bad).
    maybe sanded down the other caps a bit. it would look pretty sweet.

    "(idk if you cut the clips of the caps but they look all bad).

    I called it BIC, because i thought, that none of you will know what is Rosenart. And it is nearly the same as BIC.

    do the caps of the G1 fit ON the cap of the rosenart/bic?if they do put them ON the rosenart/bic cap and make the grip cover all of the cap not just part of it for it to look better IMO.

    If you can't put it on, only on top...still make the grip cover all parts of the cap...you can make it sort of a ballsign mod grip syle thingy but make the grip on the first grip also stick out...if you can cover all but want a sort of ballsign mod style then put it half of it inside out so it's thicker...this is just IMO... happy.gif

    You can use BIC Round Sticks (and in fact you should), so you shouldn't have any problem to get them.

    So mainly its just like a BICtory with G2 grips and G1 tips?

    its an alright starter mod i'll give ya that. but in all honesty, whenever you make a pen you need to think, Why should i spin this over [insert similiar or better mod] Just keep that in mind.

    in the USA G1's are non-existant along with G3's. And i'd say try cleaning up the mod as TEk mentioned, maybe an all black barrel with black caps and red grips.

    Looks a little bit similar to the Cerebic Mod by ellusion67.

    i made this along time ago whenever u posted the tut in ucpsb. but i thought that g1 caps were the same as easy touch caps so i used those. i really like the mod and i used it for a very long time.

    Oh thanks biggrin.gif In fact, G1 caps can break after about 2 months of spinning (it depends on... err... everything ;P). But I don't use them to anything else, so why not this mod tongue.gif I didn't use any other colour for this mod, cause it was the beginning of my penspinning adventure. You know, when you start, you like only dark colors (usually). And i sanded it down, and it looks much better biggrin.gif Also had some fun with grips cutting and now it looks even better than better biggrin.gif

    I really recommend this mod (sorry for not being humble tongue.gif)

    Keep spinning, cause "Dum spiro spinnero" tongue.gif
