  1. Just doesn't feel like a Braunschweig video without lashings of Monties and Grosenik. Massive riding, however

    Ben Rowlands 24"

    Exquisite. Wanted more so the song could continue. Like that album quite a lot - unlike your tyres
  3. They're reasonably easy to find, if you get on the right streets. It's just a massive American style grid, meaning everything looks the same, so we got rather lost once or twice If you tackle it systematically it shouldn't be to bad - there's bits and bobs EVERYWHERE, but some bits are better than other bobs, y'know? Lots of good riding to be had though, that's a cert
  4. The main rider in the video (Josh) has a Because fixed hub, and Ben (the other one) has a Hope ProII Trials.
  5. Four of us went to Milton Keynes. I was injured, so only filming; Sam was recovering and I managed not to get any clips of him; Ben was riding, as you can see, but Josh was absolutely dominating. It occurred as follows...
  6. That hubshell looks dangerously similar to the ProIIt's the one before last that cracked all the time Hope it IS beefier
  7. Actually, I ran various combinations of XTR, SD7 and Ultimates for not quite two years.

    Bmx Park

    Yeah - and I'll be heading there at some point - just wanted other options. 'Parently Radcliffe's pretty good - even if it's made of horribly splintery wood
  9. I haven't read through the topic, so it might already have been suggested: I just went in to the BuySell area for the second time (excellent development, by the way - kudos) and thought seeing new items easier might be nice. Like the "New Classifieds" box on the right of the home-page, but maybe extended to the full page height? I saw the "new items" link but that only brought up one stem. Listed down the side could be a handy development. Just a suggestion.

    Bmx Park

    Hey. I've been getting a bit in to BMX as of recent. I've fallen in love with transfers and bowls (with bits of quirky shit thrown in for good measure ) Preferably concrete - but whatever. All the skateparks have dead little ramps - I want to play in some huge flowy bowls. What can you suggest? Edit: Before you say it - Scotland is too far
  11. Good God that camera man had shaky hands. Wicked riding though. How smooth and quick he got up that first tyre was crazy!
  12. I had a couple of these recently, so I thought it'd interesting what advice sticks in other riders' heads. When I was about 11, I remember asking my dad a lot of questions one day(think it was about this new thing in maths I'd just discovered called "algebra" as he was a maths teacher at the time). When I asked one of them, I apologized for asking so many questions, and he told me "No, don't say that. Never stop asking questions." it stuck with me ever since. Another was from a filmI saw. Can't remember what it was but I didn't particularly enjoy it. At one point, a child who's family were starving saw the neighbors had lots of food and asked the older sister if they thought they'd give them any. She turned 'round and said really sternly and said "Never ask for what should be offered". It hit me as a profound statement and it's been rattling through my head ever since. What advice/quotes do you guys remember/live by?

    In a word: Nice. I know it fits in with the website, and it kind looked alright - but I really would've preferred it in colour, I think. Other than that though, excellent. Please try and get Rowan Johns in 002, whenever it happens.
  14. Don't get me wrong, it's fecking huge, but Damon consistently goes considerably bigger than that. Pretty sure some of the CLS videos did too, even all that time ago Mint riding though - I just wish people could put things in the right aspect ratio.
  15. For a first go, I'd say it turned out far better than "alright". Was a bit surreal though
  16. I really want to go to Barrow Farm, it's just so damn far away. Silky riding
  17. Absolutely perfect timing. Been getting in to BMX recently - and this guy is JUST the style I love, and fecking enormous Awesome. Downwards travelling grinds for the WIN.

    I May Cry

    Warranty? Looks reasonably unscathed...

    I know right... Is that supposed to be a question or what Rusevelt?

    Wantage And Oxford

    Samsung HMX H200 with a cheapo 0.45x wide angle lense. Thanks
  21. It's not reeeeally a video's worth of clips - and there's a hugely disproportionate number of gaps to anything else - but we're dead chuffed with the riding and I promised Noori I'd make one
  22. I'm coming to Leeds for my last year of university starting September. I know a couple of names in the area - but thought it'd be good to find out who's around. I have a car, so anywhere within half an hour's drive is classed as local. Ta

    That's just a re-painted Comp that's already cracked. Got a ghetto-gusset on there, but re-welding ally never lasts long... We'll see.
