  1. With shorter chain stays it makes the bike more flicky, and easy for going up manoevers. Where as longer chain stays makes the bike want to go forwards more. So IMO 372 is going to be the better length. And when you say 305mm bb rise, do you mean from the floor?
  2. Yep. Trialskings were awesome and very inspiring :D They mixed up styles, and never made them boring. But all good things have to come to an end :turned: I think the Trialskings choose many peoples trials styles, i.e comp influenced, or street style.

    Vp Pedals

    Same here :turned: They're just generally awesome pedals. Cheap, light, grippy in all conditions(unlike V8/V12s IMO) and reliable. I just replace mine after every 4-5months (Y) Ive never broken a pair. Bent cages here and there, but never snapped them off, or snapped axles, etc.

    Fears

    Yer..i get what you mean. Since you hurt yourself on something, you wont really want to do it again. Ive fallen off bike racks loads, so i decided not to do it again, just because i kept falling off. So it put a sort of fear into me. But normally, if ive tried it once, ill try it again, so long as ive came close on the first*few*attempts. The best thing you can do is to just think about where you went wrong, and remember it for next time :turned:

    Dk Bikes

    Right then, Ive found a few sites that do the grips i want here. But after looking on the DK website i saw the pretty green grips :turned: :D I know www.winstanleysbmx.com deal DK, but not those colours. www.customriders.com also deal with DK, but i dont know if they supply the grips. www.wiggle.com also deal with DK but i dont know if they do those grips. I just wanted to know if i can get them, or not. Thanks in advance (Y)
  6. :turned: Silly Monty and their silly stems (Y)
  7. Its just that i've heard more Monty stems break than Zoo! stems. I only paid £35 o summit for my monty stem(didnt really use it), and thats got the carbon effect, but no Ti bolts. I dont know how your friend paid summit like £80 for the stem, even with the Ti bolts.
  8. Zoo stems are lower, slightly shorter, and stronger. Where as the Monty stems are slightly longer, higher(more rise) and not as strong.
  9. Right then, back to the original idea of letting bike pic threads stay. I dont think its an ego booster. People in the members are like that, IMO
  10. Couldnt the mods etc. just close the topics auto-matically after soo many days of being open?
  11. As the title and poll say. (Y) I think people should show us their new bikes. They want to show us what they've acheived and are proud of.
  12. It looks well sweet in black! Especially with the black forks. This fat kid called damon has got one, but in brused colouring. Try lowering your bar+stem, it rides better,IMO, lower (Y)
  13. I hope, the real production model has different tubing thickness to that of the T-pro and the Woodstock, just becasue they dent a little too easy. Otherwise its looking good. Like Simon said, if the colour is changed then itll look awesome (Y)
  14. The limited edition un, blue front end, with base fatty r forks on measure to about 1040ish
  15. Oo shit, must have double posted (Y) First time ive done that (Y) Your pimped giant confused me! (Y)
  16. Thats the crap riding un (Y) lol. Nah that aint the Limited Edition un
  17. But he has no money (Y) Getting a job is your best option (Y) TiddleWinks :S" (Y) sorry i had to say it :P
  18. They have a longer wb than the normal un (Y) Stronger for some reason :S IMO stiffer,flickier, and all round better (Y) If you have one, or are getting one..then you are very lucky, if not; buy it !!!!!
  19. (Y) Im suprised he didnt get whip lash! Normall y when i bail forwards i just put my legs forward and im good. He must have slow reactions :- B) lol. Glad to see him re-attempting it though. Itll only build up his confidence for later :D :P
  20. My mates managed to break the pawls and springs, on his bmx! :-

    My New Vid

    Cheers for the comments :D The quality of video is poor because its only 13.99mb .wmv format. And Luke, i taught Damon everything he knows :P" (Y) I get what you mean Simon, about my style, its because you dont see many comp unfluenced riders with tonnes of individuality and style. I like to think i have my own style of riding. :D Yep there was a Cd player in the back ground, but its broken now :- Have i helped to persuade you to come to Hull soon then JT! B)" :D
  22. Zoo! Pad. No Problems about them wearing uber quick :( Didnt really care for plazmatics, not enough bite
  23. It looks similar to the St.Blaze, except sexier! :S It looks to be lighter(has less material)...and new koxx rim colours!!??
