  1. tensile parts ***. I dont think koxx parts are all that for the money your paying. Tensile freewheels are the way to go. I know tensile cranks are a bit more money than the price your getting the try-all's for but there worth the ££. I would also go for the truvative gigapipe bb, solid as a rock, both bearings and axle...cheap too! Thats just my opinion but i have found those parts to be great.

    Patt that mint, some beasty sidehops and wheel swaps going on. I can appreciate how big some of that stuff must be but the camera often doesnt show it sometimes-maybe use a fisheye lens? Really liked that though, have to come up for a ride sometime soon. keep it up dude!
  3. Hey guys, i'm probably gona go for the rear cassette style hub and it's between the king or the proII 07. Naturally i want the king being the bike tart that i am but ive been told you do really need to make upgrades to the ss king hubs such as heavy duty axles etc. Does this defo need to be done as i can get an ss king hub with choice of sprocket for not alot more than a proII and a sprocket kit?? Really not sure what to go for, what othr upgrades apart from axle may be necessary? cheers-Hugh
  4. when i'm just doing a general clean i jet wash mine on the least powerful spray, then cover in dirtbike cleaner/muc off (muc off is a rip off lol, i get 25 litres of the same stuff for £30!!) then jet wash this off. You can cover everything with the muc off, chain, tensioner, freewheel etc, it gets all the shite of these too. I then leave to dry but dry the chain with a rag ad lub this an my levers and a few other bits with 3 in 1 oil.
  5. hmmm read through this whole thread. Did want a king and hadnt really considered the hope. Basically getting fed up of the crap getting in my freewheel eg sand lol. Gona weight up the difference in weight and decide what to do. Hope seem to have a great aftersales service so not worried if it eventually breaks. -Hugh

  9. yeah i'm not that keen on rails but i'm getting better, bit scared really lol. I'm using ribo's but the model i have arent that great, the new ones that tarty will have soon are the way to go, Alot tougher material and very well designed.

  14. Hey guys, rode with a few m8's near my gf house the other day. Got a couple of pics. Improved my tapping etc but rode norwich yesterday and i only wish i had the camera as i improved further with bigger taps and sidehops Anyway here's the pics i got:

  16. no I didnt have a tape measure with me, was my first time there and just wanted to get riding really. Wish i had had a camera and a tape measure at norwich yesterday though! Think i would have beat my personal best for tapping, not sure about sidehopping though
