  1. seriously i know im just jumping on the bandwagon here but just get a bmx rofl youd find it so much more fun because stuff like that would be sooo much easier helping you progress to bigger and better stuff
  2. so you'v managed to get the bb on the bike and the cranks on and its all working fine, how badly is it catching the slave? could you not grind a little material off your pad and move it in ??
  3. them stems are f**kin toss carrot ther actually a well shit geo, trialtech ones are well nice with some viz pro or trialtech bars
  4. this guy actually does it backwards to how i do it i dunno if it matters structurally but i do my inward ones first because its a bit tricky to get them in when the outward spokes are already in, http://www.sheldonbrown.com/wheelbuild.html, thats the guide i learned on its the best one iv found so far you dont really need to read the whole lot just scroll down to the diagrams and have a read through the instructions
  5. unless its a king get a freewheel, had so many hubs blow up on me i loved my pro2 but iv just had it with it breaking all the time now and iv decided to get a freewheel on my stock fixed rear hubs make for a well solid wheel aswell due to the wide flanges and the SL is probably the best freewheel out there atm or so iv heard and they sound mint

    Bar Tape?

    i have tape on my bike its soooo cumfy it wears down fairly fast and it's a little expensive but you do get like 3-4 pairs out of one pack so its all good it comes in some really funky colours too hhha
  7. 7 months is a fair time for a light part like that to last if you want more strenght get some welgo magnesiums iv had mine for about a year they're still going strong
  8. that bike rides f**king amazing, back brakes sick too !!
  9. lmao at the start, that was beaaaast gaps where massife
  10. just for the record its an 05, looks decent but it'd ride miles better with a nice high stem on trust me with that bb rise aswell lol
  11. the TR's exactly the same as the SL but with less engagements so yes..., and i love a loud freewheel/hub its a massife confidence booster when doing something big feeling a solid engagement and hearing a loud snap !
  12. ok so im stripping my old nackerd pro2 down and building it onto a fixed hub my mate gave me and iv run into a problem when building it, the hubs a 36 and my rims a 32, to be honest i cant be botherd fannying about buying a new rim/hub and spokes so im just thinking of building it anyway i was thinking solong as all the holes on the rim are filled there shoudnt be much of a problem or will it cause a dodgey cross somewhere and be a bitch to true?? has anyone done this before?? help
  13. go on andy, go on andy, GO ON ANDY lol, gettin decent now mate sort your camera man out thought hha
  14. new deng stuff is toss iv NEVER seen a frame snap there not even a wafer thin koxx pile
  15. im about half an hour away on the train man i met you in sheff that time im a mate of lazenbys so yeah ill come ride thers hardly any decent riders near me :\
  16. a few cheeky clips from the other day, not stricktly todays riding but just thought i'd share
  17. flat gapping to front is the hardest way to learn it, you need to be gapping upto something higer and not so far away probably just over a bike length then really commit to it or youl never pick it up, best thing to do is just get your weight right over the front as far as you can then worry about swapping after youv got that bit.
  18. if your axles sticking out then its never going to work and taking a link out wont help it, you need to either shorten your axle or put some spacers on the excess axle.
  19. have a look at your axle and see if its sticking out the end of your frame slightly it could be that your bolts arnt actually clamping your frame enough
  20. it is yes but youd need to buy a new freehub body and maybe an axle but im not 100% sure and for that money you could find a secondhand one on here.
  21. that was mint !! hha iv done some of those lines myself and i know how hard they are WITH brakes, love how stan just flows over anything aswell, great vid that, i miss going out with mates and riding like this just for the fun of it :\
  22. riding blackburn this sunday (12th) anyone up for a hop is welcome, meet at say 12ish by the station so far theres me, ross, lazenby, cocky apparantly and theo m. peace
  23. back with a vengeance rofl those are some well good snaps, that side over the rail is a f**king whopper
