  1. You say you want a monty but not the price tag. Check out the 221 Pr, its a monty, and doesnt have the price tag
  2. Ill find it for you. F- Set There you go.
  3. It's already been made partz. Forgotten who by, but it was in another thread on here. Freecoaster allows you to freewheel forwards and backwards! No idea how it works, but theyre cool, very expensive though.
  4. Its 500g, so pretty light really. Ronnies are 530g i think? I dont see where the ronnie is so heavy.
  5. For trials, the only good thing i can see is the flat topped tyre beads. Obviously the fat bit where the nipples are seated is good, but we dont need strength there, we need super fat sidewalls, and some sort of support to stop them bending.
  6. Did one today in about 1 'n' a half hours. It was radial so didnt take very long to build, but i like to spend a long time getting it as true as i can.
  7. Regular photo's comps is a great idea. I would definitly join in, yay. Themed would be good too, although i dont think there would be as many entries.
  8. I ordered controls, so i just assumed that is what i had got. Sorry again ash.
  9. There must be some sort of stupid gene, some retard at my secondary school looks just like him.
  10. I wouldnt really say "mega". Tarty said he wouldnt want to do it, and hes a pretty respected wheelbuilder, so obviously its not a very good solution.
  11. If it was a hope mono trial rotor, then it is possible that it had cracked, and then snapped. Bigman's did the same (not sure whether it snapped though) and he got a replacement. Send it to hope.
  12. Well tough. Its try-all, or a silver ronnie. Or bodge the 32 hole echo rim.

    New Rim

    That rim is in perfect condition. Mine got 8 dents in one day, needless to say i wasnt being particularly smooth. Anyway, keep riding it, no point getting a new one till that one dies. I read somewhere that the ronnie is a dx32 which has been improved, i beleive it was someone from onza who said it, so stick with the ronnie.

    Picture War

    Dark matter beats nothing, because, i dunno, dark matter rocks.

    Picture War

    Gangrene is no challenge for....... Texas chain saw massacre man!!! Doh beaten, but my chainsaw man is better.
  16. I dont think you can, pat donovan couldnt, but i cant remember if he was using a freewheel or fixed cog.
  17. Work for me, and how i wish they didnt.
  18. Shiman UN52, approximately 1/millionth the price, and lasts years. King said they were making ISIS only as square sucks. King BB page.
  19. Yay, so we are going to have zhi aorta deng and ko making the exact same stuff, with different letters on. What is this oh so amazing geo? Surely it must have something considerably different if you can "sidehop to the moon"
  20. You said it yourself, argos. Theres an adjustable speed one for £16 somewhere, just have a peep and see what you can find.
  21. Perhaps being further back is a good thing though, as you can throw yourself forwards and upwards?
  22. I bunnyhop, its easier. I can do pedal hoppy ones, but its just harder as you are going slower. Saying that, i think i may go slightly too fast, and use my momentum rather than technique.
  23. I love mine. No need to say any more really, or we will end up with the "you're to thick to own one, stop complaining when it skips" arguement.
  24. I think those guys are just joking, for some strange reason....
