  1. I'd say go with the Urbans. I mean, the TR's are a whole 1g lighter. And for that mental extra 1g of weight on the Urbans you get thicker sidewalls for more grinds. Deeper sidewalls to make it easier to set up the brake. And you get a variety of colours. EDIT: Just realised you can get the TR in a variety of colours too. but still, I stand by my opinion. Get the Urbans.
  2. I actually noticed that first time round aswell but I thought i wouldn't say anything incase thought I was retarded.
  3. *Sighs* What a mistake! Just joking. But mod is better!
  4. Yeah! it's insane! Nice one Ross. Vegas 8 will take time to get used to! Haha. It's well complicated.
  5. Yeah. I have some Snowy's in powerpad backings. The CNC'd ones can only make it better. They are awesome on a smooth rim. Great hold, bite and wear life.
  6. Well from what I've heard they are VERY good pads that have both good hold and bite. But that's just going from what i've been told. I've never personally tryed them myself. (Wait till Dave tells you about them!? )
  7. Oops crap. Was on the wrong page. Sorry about that.
  8. Wow! Can't believe how smooth you are. Are you sticking to stock or do you still ride mod?
  9. Do bear in mind that Monty's are very short bikes. You should have a go on a frame that's like 1030-1040 and see how it feels.
  10. Is there more material on the powerpad ones? And what do you use to cut it down?
  11. I've noticed your huge love for them! WHen you get brand new refills, do you have to cut the material down a bit?
  12. Oright! And yeah! It looks like he got a puncture. Not surprised though!

    Barf Or Baff

    I've never ever ever ever heard a bath being pronounced 'barf'... until now.
  14. Great video! Looked like such a good ride. Danny Mac's gap was insannee!!! I take it that's theSt Pauls gap everyone was talking about?
  15. Would I be right in thinking the Heatsink's are stiffer? I suppose if they are it won't be by a noticeable amount.
  16. I suppose. I thought it was only really stock bikes that you needed to sand down the material to get it to fit? Because of the way some of them are set up the cranks hit off the pistons. Don't see it happening on mods.
  17. Hi guys, I am going to be getting new pads soon and I have decided to get Phatpads. However i'm not sure what backings to get. Can people please tell what they prefer and why? I have heard that the Phat backings are slimmer so when there isn't much pad material left you might have to sand down your prongs? But i've also heard that the Heatsink ones are very tight and can snap/ crack your pistons? It will be more expensive to get the Heatsink ones as I will have to pay £20 for the backings and then £12 for the Phat material but I'm not sure what ones would be better to get? Thanks guys Hunter
  18. Wow! I can't believe how much he has gotten better since his last video. And if that's his unwanted clips then I can't wait for the real video!
  19. I think it is. I've heard it before. And... All the SL stuff is drilled to f**k and IS superlight so...
  20. I'm staying in Edinburgh right now and earlier on today I visited lots of the spots in that video and WOW! I've always thought it was amazing but when you actually see it in real life you appreciate it so much more. (I never knew it was possible to appreciate more than I already did!) Especially the very last thing he does in the video, where everyone runs over to see if he was alright. It was just amazng seeing that. Once again, such a good video!
