Bush ? A typo I guess.

Maths you mean. I'm glad some one has finally understood this and broken it down clearly for you to understand But no doubt you will try and twist it

Wtf I'm not disputing that. At what point did I say any different ?

Don't ever remember you winning elite Ali. But congratulations if you did. Your an amazing rider.

I actually love how twisted every one is on here, ego lol I never ever come on here and said I'm better than any one. Until today Also love how your trying to twist things into me saying shorter cranks give you more rotations. If some one wants to point that out carry on. All iv said is on a half rotation with a shorter crank you can start closer. As you foot moves less Just to make it clear I'm right footed, half pedal starting left food can start closer. Maybe you should go try it for your self

I don't really think that video shows your true ability at all.

Me too although iv never had a 24". Been around long enough to have won the British championship, the tyke trial championship. Represented the united kingdom at the world championships and finished 15th in the world in the highest catogories in uci trials. I really didn't want to get down to blowing my own trumpet. But oh well. What the f**k do I know eh.

Do onza still do the half price crash replacement from years back ? Worth a try ?

That up to front was un-real. He has no rest for his face

Same here

You must be going big from rear then ? Beast

More money than sense, nice filming Alex

Wow you sound amazing. Never seen you about. Must of been before my time.

I have educated myself by trying it out for myself. Why are you even getting involved ? Do you even ride ?

I will look forward to you kicking some arse next year with your 200mm cranks. Like I thought, guessing again. Don't forget to explain physics to him

Is that a guess or did he tell you that him self ? I will ask him next time I'm chatting to him if you want.

Same with Abel- still runs 158mm monty cranks which are old as and he's not even sponsored by monty any more. Strange trend.. Strange they all have the same personal preference

Airline

So please tell me why all the top riders in the whole wide world use shorter cranks rathan longer ? I'm just trying to help you guys out. But if you want to listen to these guys who arnt really the best riders in the world fair enough. No offense by the way Adam. I give up I also want to make it clear that I'm not claiming to be any good. I'm referring to such risers as Gilles coustellier Vincent hermance kenny bealey and jack Carthy. Jack runs 165 on stock too

Shorter cranks give your a small circumference so on a short run up- half pedal stroke you can start closer So your foot actually has to travel less for the same distance the bike moves.

Crank length comes from the length of your legs. As in on road bikes the lager size frames will have longer cranks and long stem, longer reach etc. I think if you have shorter legs then the ill affects of longer cranks might be worse. But not sure Personally I have tried longer and shorter so I could feel the difference. If you can try some out?

Makes sense but can I add that when you pedal at the point of the jump/take off your not kicking as hard as you possibly could. Also when you jump the length of time you muscles are contracting is about .2 secounds. And an only accelerate for about the same time

Maybe a drill and 8mm Allen key socket style bit. Take your pedals off and maybe left crank arm. Put chain on as normal. Use the Allen bit in the crank bolt to rotate the crank and freewheel for a couple of thousand revs ?

You can never please every one joe. Now stop moaning, go fix your brake and make more videos. Good watch

What ? Your the one trolling.
