  1. without having my dairy around, do you know if it clashes with any other events (worlds)? if not, you cant keep me away!!
  2. sorry mat dont like T mags REALLY dont like flouresent rims and tilt your bloody bars back!!!! like the sidehop though
  3. echo stems are very boring though If the hope is too much, then the titec rip stem is spot on!! I think they are £17 and have a lifetime warrenty.
  4. that place does look pretty cool. I really dont like those frames though
  5. hope if you have the cash, titec rip stem if your on a buget
  6. I didnt f**k up my career. I dont think you gave it long enough, you reap what you sow (or somthing like that) it may take longer to get good on 26", but once your good you have learned more bike handling skills than riding a mod would have. mods are more like instant results, but stocks take more time, but it pays in the end. (trust me!!)
  7. I would rather break my £14 mech than my £15 hanger
  8. I aint sure where you can get it, I just randomly had it lying around. Iolo can make you a hanger, it will be nicer then mine too.
  9. its about 4mm, its really strong heat treated stuff though, I cant see it bending even if I put it in a vice!!!
  10. I made myself a steel mech hanger, it was really easy, I just used a hacksaw, drill and a file. I have had it on my bike ever since I got it and its never bent, and I have landed pretty heavily on the mech a few times. give it a go.

    Plate Fire Video

    well impressed!! janson can tap dam high!! though his gaps look funny Peter, I love the sidehop twists to thin things Editing was good too, liked the music and was funny in places.
  12. liked it I have ridden that castle before and know how tough it is, so it gets my respect. I liked the editing too.
  13. gahhhhhh I say this farrr too much!!!!!! but I reccomend an Ashton Justice. keep your parts and just get that frame, the difference will be incredible! the justice is very easy to get used to and rides amazingly well! please dont get a mod, the good thing about old skoolers is most of them ride stock and swear by them
  14. I say this to most people (and most ignore me) but tilt your bars back!! seriously, it will make your bike ride 100x better maybe making you stick with it and saving a lot of money. if you do go and get another bike, do me and yourself a favour and dont go high bb.
  15. I am gonna diss your grandma and say I dont like it, too tgs for my liking + the fact I dislike pythons anyway doesnt help
  16. I had a go on the machine he is entering on, its pretty cool if not a little cramped. I think I have the contraption I am riding on, but I am still on the hunt.
  17. cheers pat hope the legs ok its a shame you couldnt make it tom, havnt seen you for a while. I am sunburnt been a while since that happened
  18. that was an ace ride weather was perfect. cheers for inviting me, was nice to ride with you guys
  19. but you cant use gears and enter comps, which sucks
  20. 1065 control, does that count as long?

    New Frame

    I had a hifi, used that for a while, finally realised I hated it and went back to low bb, havnt looked back since, I still wonder how people think high bb bikes ride nice
  22. shurrrup you!! I put the freehub body on rwong and put too much stress on the bearing and blew them, even with shrapnel in the pawls, my hub didnt slip once. kings are good, but I dont see the need to get one now that hopes are out.
