  1. Hoooooppppefullly fingers f**kin crossed they are realising high BBs arn't the magic cure to being a good rider and are lowering things to a sensible number.
  2. Are they serious with that shit? Oh my god.
  3. A gay title, but riding was siiiiick
  4. Whats wrong with 2.35 size?
  5. BB wise you'd have to knock out each bearing. tapping the end of the axle should push out one bearing and the axle, then use a suitably sized socket or something to knock out the other from the inside out. Look on tarty for how to remove a freewheel.
  6. Serious She is mint. f**k it I'm moving to America.
  7. Fair enough. I've snapped them in half but only when they've not been modified. Also cracked the lever bolt area from work hardening I guess. Anyways, might be worth looking at your lever angle to see if you're putting alot of stress downwards on the lever blade if its an issue.
  8. They are usually fine if you grind off the edge. Much comfier than the pre-04 ones. Anyways, you see the + and - sign next to the tpa? That 90 degree corner is where the crack starts. I will try and find a pic of where to grind off.
  9. Out of interest what made you pussy out? What aspect? It bemuses me how or why people want to go into the military, I'd rather sweep streets. But fair one either way.
  10. The Highroller UST has thicker sidewalls than a standard dual ply. But anyway, you're right in that if you're consitantly puncturing a dual ply maxxis you need to be smoother or need some more pressure in there.
  11. The "Spitfire Canvas BMX". According to CRC, available end of May. ~£65.
  12. I'm waiting for these: At least it doesn't look like you should be in a wheelchair to wear them.

    Abel was shredding! Up to rear on a rock Vince can't get to pedal
  14. I guess you could use a bolt-up quick release if your beef is with the qr lever?
  15. Have them normal tightness, it won't make a slight bit of difference. If they are loose it'll feel like shit.
  16. Will keep an eye out bey, whereabouts in t town were they taken?
  17. DOT is hydrophillic.
  18. Very little to none.
  19. Yeah the grease will be coming from the bearings, best to wipe that shit off and lube with a light oil (finishline wet or summat).
  20. Rad, reminded me of the old cultiv8ed seafood vid. Matt's riding is crackers.
  21. I wonder how good you can speak Artem Bulashev's native tongue.
  22. Yeah I found as we're generally pretty fit young bucks you have the ability to overdo it pretty easily, as you don't really feel tired or out of breath but your tendons and muscles arn't used to the different forces.
  23. Would rather see it inserted in her bottom bracket
  24. Either you've snapped a pawl / spring in there, or its your drivetrain.
