  1. That was my point. I was asking if everyone else was the same - and I realise now I should've put "anyone" rather than "everyone".
  2. Does this question depress everyone else? I'm not really proud of anything I've done. Making my guitar is the closest I've got.
  3. Are you that dude in Shepshed with the loud car? Edti: Forgot to mention what you wanted to hear, very nice colour
  4. Hope Mono if you can afford one, BB7 if not. BB7's turn out just as good, but take a long time to bed in enough to be as good, in my experience.
  5. I ride almost every day, and have Try-All tyres. I run them quite squidgy, and they're just about bald after 8-10 weeks. The less you ride, and harder you run them, the longer they'll last. They are absolutely brilliant, performance-wise though. SO grippy, and I folded my rim the other day without getting a pinch. Wear quicker than other tyres, but if you can afford them, totally worth it for the performance gain. If you can't warrant the cash, Nothing much wrong with Maxxis. Still pretty grippy, and just a bit less pinch protction.
  6. :| And there was me thinking it was simply about having fun riding a bike! I'ma have to have a rethink of my passtime.
  7. Even better - slot an adjustable spanner over it. Also easier as you get more leverage
  8. It was raining earlier, but has now stopped. Still very overcast though. It's brightening up - but I dunno, might not be worth the petrol money for you.
  9. P'raps not, but eBullies are about as cool as it's possible to become.
  10. Gettin a new one from Halfords in the morning. If that one turns up, it's pretty f**ked anyway.

    Bring Me the Horizon - Sleep with One Eye Open, but the Tek-One remix. I don't know why I know that - I don't even like them
  12. ...The up to front on that snowwy block was played at LEAST four times.
  13. Don't listen to Revolver, he ain't nothin' but a hippocite Says TGS riding is shit, but at the same time switched from a streety riding bike to a TGS specific one.
  14. In the least insulting way possible, the best thing about that video was the music behind it. It really was quite wonderful, and I'm sure I've heard it before. What is it? N.B. That was meant as a compliment to the music, not an insult to the riding. That was pretty decent too, but there's an awfull lot of repeated clips in there.
  15. Haha. I just read the rest of the thread. It's quite obvious I didn't before I posted It's not impossible to go towards your good foot. Most people find it harder, so it's deffinately worth at least trying the "normal" way, but if it doesn't feel right - just stick it out.
  16. Going away from your leading foot tends to make it easier for most people as it allows more room for your arse to sink, thus bringing the bike up higher when tucking. It's by NO means the "right" way, though. I used to, and just switched one day for no reason. It just suddenly made more sense to go the other way. A great, if over-used example is Tunnicliffe. He's left foot forward, and sidehops to the left, and doesn't seem to struggle too much for height :Pa
  17. Boumsong - because I don't like riding with lots of people, ride a 24, or have the petrol money Bigman - Lancaster Road in Leicester is not free, but £3.20 for the day.
  18. The spots we go to aren't very BMX oriented... ..Unless they're dead techy BMXers, I guess.
  19. I know most of the regulars won't post in here, but I thought a thread should be put up anyway. Also, for any non-regulars that fancy it. Meet at Crown Courts at 11, as ever.
  20. He's still bashing away - just didn't film any. If you'd've heard the landing at the St. Pauls dropgap, you'd've been PROUD Comp is solid as you like. Sometimes a BIT flexy seatstays, but no more than any otther frame. Rest of it is great. Quite short thoiugh - needs a big stem, and I'm only 5'9"
  21. Never had an SL, or ridden one, so don't know about sound. Had the Tensile about 4-5 months now, and it's skipped once when I absolutely stomped it, with no preload what so ever. In my experience - very reliable.
  22. Tensile 96 click on the mod, ProIIT on the stock.
  23. Forbidden link, but who the f**k are YOU to know about deinterlacing? I know it needed doing, but truth be told I couldn't be arsed to look in to it and find out how to do it - but you?! You always used to have a go at me for not being solely in to mechanical things What happened?
