add me to msn also

either vp ( onza/tryall/monty etc ) caged pedals...[remove the inner cage]...or platform pedals, dmrv8/v12s or onza hognesiums

would have thought that frame would be around.....2.3kgs maybe?

When you bed a brake in, you're removing the top layer of pad material, helping it match itself to the contours of the disc, and thus provide more surface area for brake pad/rotor contact. The water helps remove these tiny particles from the pads.

what has the fact that they're urbans got anything to do with it? theyre hardly weak exactly.... the stress risers are where they meet the headset, where the fork is inside the frame, theres not a huge amount of stress present .eg.... headset cup- ]| frame |[headset cup

tanky frames but decent geo I wouldn't say they tapped hugely well, being a mod and all.... I still prefer a t-pro though in terms of geo and weight

badass

viz forks are brilliant...far superior to koxx forks in terms of strength and stiffness in my opinion

nice bike dude, i know one of the guys that rides for phase...they're great bikes to ride, really playful and flicky

rockman maladie are very strong, and very light....uber high bb though and huuuge, so take some getting used to. Id assume the zo lynx would be best overall? Onza ice's are supposed toi be moderately weak, going from what ive heard recently

thats all the geo you need.... the wheelbase is dependanmt on forks

real coust's pssssh the tnn pads are comparable to the real cousts....just die in a few weeks :| damn straight.....

very, very impressed...extremely good riding, you've progressed very quickly nicely done

yep me too.... contaminated to shit 203mm bb7 and its still amazingly good

i think it had to be that...or a VERY bent cog...anyway, you should hgave really remedied it before it went through just get it welded and get a few more months out of it...i would

f**k the bed i actually love that!

looks miiiint, spray that front rim, get some monty bars and your onto a real winner there. ride soon...... EDIT: forks are toxsin, i thinks

of coruse it is...same as having grippier tyres that help you grip to objects... Some peopel use "pixie boots" e.g Ribo and try-all...although these are more comp-orientated. Most people just use skate shoes, that what i use anyway.

The man speaks truth had a go on joe seddon;s limey....and its lush, just a slightly shorter version of my coust -perfect in my book

not much force if you do it inbetween the headset cups...the main stress risers are on the legs, magura mounts, disc mounts, in line with the lower headset, in line with top headset cup. Id say thats the safest place to remove some material, apart from the dropouts.

bike looks mint, ive just built one up and loving it good work there

kmc kool for sure skinny one though

i think theyre more of a mtb company to be fair :| go to the topic on member's chat..... have you had a king before?

If i were you, id just true the rotor with an adjustable spanner...and get some new pads, whack some piccys up of the old ones and im sure someone can help
