They're both crap if you ask me and the only person ive seen ride 1 is Jonny Jones (26" frame). :P That top tube soo HUGE!! About 3" wide.
-
How weird, i never saw that drop before...i must of thought it was some more gay little rocks. :P Need to get my eyes tested.
-
Cheers mark, so what did you use the trials or single speed??? This is the thing, i've seen loads of t-rex's with middleburns and tensiles. But never orbitas with a tensile bashring. Is there something different about them?? Size??
-
Just get 1 from ebay. Ben Savage's dad sells them. their £16, great deal! :P
-
Well as Ad101 kindly said for me, 'i bought the crank when i bought the frame cause my old one was screwed'. So i pretty sure this hasn't alreadly happened to the crank because it does look alright, although the another crank has done this but ive have had it way, way longer! Tartybikes sell the UN53 BB dont they adam? in both sizes! About the gauge: I did find it earlier but there was anything i could do about it really, i should of bent the chainring over abit but couldn't be arsed! :P .... :) shit. Mark are you sure that they are thinner, i vividly remember the whole body of the ENO being really wide, i there more than 1 model?

Yea. I hate the bits when they speak and that last song, well i suspose they are from Sweeden. :(

LOL, i reckon that is so true but its probably even better in tokyo, has anyone noticed that nearly everything we look at today has a MADE IN CHINA stamp on it. They are taking over, their own country has about three languages and its so huge that apparently their are more people that speak chinese than other languages. What about MG/Rover???

If you have any square nuts, they fit perfectly and work great! You just need something on the axle for the bolt to push on basically.

Yes of course Stephen. If you had bought MBUK it would have made thing alot easier. 2004 magura: loads of places but super cycles is the first one ive found. (Gold limted edition). I dont like the new levers either and although i havent got one myself ive heard alot people prefere the old levers. TSG helmet: Couldn't find any. Google it! Not too percific. Spokes: Bloody anywhere. Search yourself, it is your project. I would just buy a copy of MBUK and search the forum then use that information in my own mag. SIMPLE :(

I have an armourdillo and i think its the best thing i have ever bought, seriously! There are a few improvements that could be made though: 1. Better stiching to stop pipes falling out 2. Maybe different colours other than black, clear would be cool if possible. 3. Something that doesnt take up half the frames graphics so you still see the beauty of the bike. These are only minor things though, i still think the armourdillo is a quality buy. :(

You lot do really make some weird comparisons to other bikes. In my opinoin its definetly a copy of the BT aven 5.0 or maybe 4.0 in geometry. There are alot deferent parts e.g. gussets etc but lots pretty much the same. I like the seat gussets and the chainstays. Does anyone happen to own yet i wonder?

I should of asked this question so long ago but...oh well :( I've had my t-rex now from november last year and i want to know if anyone has had any problems with clearance?? Firstly i had orbita cranks with the tensile screw on bash ring with a 22t chainring and it didnt fit with a UN53 BB (127mm), which is advised, even by tartybikes. Then i bought a 20t chainring and it still didnt fit, so i made a BB spacer and moved the driveside over. THEN, it just fitted, JUST!! Now after 6 months i have decided to get rid of my hope bulb that keeps braking and convert to front freewheel, which will also get rid of my clearance problem. After taking the crank off i relised that the chainring didnt just fit, it DIDN'T FIT!!! :) I had a 2mm guage in my frame. Hope its not serious. Please could someone advise! Ok so now ive bought an ACS freewheel and im getting a stainless steel bash ring the same size as the coust bashring made for my orbita cranks and i've fixed up an old onza wheel. Ive already had to grind the tabs off the freewheel because IT didn't fit either and now i have about 2/3 mm left with the crank just pushed on, which should be alright. One last thing, when/if i break my ACS i might buy an white industries eno freewheel which i think is even bigger. Will that fit? How wide are they compared to an ACS? Has anyone had as much trouble as i have?????????? :( Sorry about the length of the post, i hope u will read it still. Thanks and thanks again :) Steve

As we know, Matt Staples is the only one at the moment to have 1 of these babies and the other day i was wondering why they named the fame MS2. Normally, i would think that random letters normally stand for something. I thoguht maybe.....Matt Staples 2 but then i thought about the MS1 so i cant be because Matt didnt ever ride the MS1. :( Im confused, does anyone know y they named it MS2 :( Steve

Killer video!!! :( Quality natural, getting some really big lines, espically sidehops and going straight from the floor :) . Very, very nice except for the wheelswap to massive, dodgey, uphill drop. :blink: He must of done SOME damage on that cause there like no way he could of absorbed that drop on that landing. again, well done to yaozhi :)
-
I totally agree, really dont like that rim atall. May i ask how you drilled that rear rim 'cause i might do my ronnie tomorrow and i cant remember the old posts about drilling your rims, so please tell all.

Yea great ride masses amount of people there today, for me it was a bit unexpected. Somehow nearly every crammed into the loading bay at tate to atch the crazy stuff gown down. I was well pleased i managed to bump that (Y) . We rode alot more than usual it seemed which was a plus!! Someplaces i havent been before. Finally getting to know london :unsure: . Dont know if anyone else went but Me, Ad101 and Dan Wheeler went to the Barbican and for once didnt get kicked off, which was nice although it was well windy there. Police were giving us a bit a hassle as always but overall a great ride. Lots of highlights!!! Cant believe Matt sidehopped nearly 50" SWITCH! ...Gay Steve (Onza t-rex with armadillo, lol)
-
Another great vid people, I really liked the editing at the start. The overall riding was good but the camera man looked like he couldn't hold the camera still, which was doing my head in. Some nice pics at the end as well. >_<
-
well now irelise u have soo many blue components, how about taking the zoo! stickers off. lol....It was worth a try.
-
I just dont like them, they kind of clash with the green stickers on the frame. Just becuase you dont want to get rid or spray your front hub!...The only thing that it matches. lol. Its my opinion.
-
Naa mate, what he needs is some FALL guys!!! I dont know how he would manage to break them. >_<
-
Looks nice, im not too sure about the cranks though. Maybe if you sprayed the bash ring green! That might look cool. Also, i would lower the stem and cut the steerer tube to make it feel nicer. >_<
-
I remember it taking along time to get use to my rex but dont remember having problems with rear wheeling! I think it is probably you just getting use to a longer bike...it should be easier.
-
Not another person to buy a t-rex and not another person's, that looks better than mine! ;)
-
I did mean elite rider in Club comps. And im only 15 as well....but your better at natural and im better at street :ermm: Steve :P
-
Nice vid!! :S some big gaps there, i espically like the one done in the school shoes. lol. The stacks at the end are always funny as well. :lol:
