just saw that cleanbikes had my old vid as vid of the week. Its been a few years since I origionally put it on here, so I thought now would be a good oppertunity. please dont laugh at my riding. sorry if its classed as advertising, and sorry to dave and adam for showing a competetors shop :) it wont let me add a link, so pop over to www.cleanbikes.co.uk (then go to tartybikes lol)

personally I wouldnt buy a street bike unless it was steel, just for the ease of fixing.

my bb used to come loose all the time, I just rode it anyway. Got a new bb now and its fine :)

nooooo steel steel steel!!

being in brum, its better for me in that its easier to get to. But nass doesnt sound like my kinda thing so I dont recken I will go.

I have yet to have a disk that worked well straight out of the box, they all need bedding in. The avid is one of the quickest to do so. I say just ride like normal, it will get good.

have you bed it in?

went out in the rain today. The grip factor doesnt bother me at all, its just I hate the feeling of rain falling on me, its horrible. But I went out anyway, it was ok, just street riding. Shame I was having an off day (Y)

it says its over 6 mins long, but mine stops at 30 secs (Y)

lol, matt looks like a right meathead in those (Y)

they are both long low silver frames so of course they are gonna look a "little" bit the same. But the actual differences are huge.

round mounts sint a problem, my global had them, they just fit as normal square ones do.

my internet eye tells me it looks like it has a bit of bb rise :lol:

oohhh, nerds were even better :P I used to live off those

oohhhh, anyone remember Dweeb sweets? they were little bits of sour candy in a box, came in two flavours......they were the bestest

I ride with wayne and he is the biggest chav I know!! he stole my hope mono trials for gods sake!! :P

its disk only, BUT you can just squeeze in room for a pad. most places sell them, but I think its called the 721 now?

gAHHHHHHHHHHHHAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa SSSCCCCCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEe ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAJJJJJJJJJJJJJJAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!! sorry, I was just singing along with the "song" there :P riding was good, big gaps and so on, I recken I would struggle with a few. quality of the vid was horrendous as people have said, also the music could wake the dead!! Make another vid, but of better quality, mellower music and more thought out lines and it would be awesome, your easily capable of it :P

I am the opposite, that one of the most impressive vids I have seen. You can do stuff it took me years to learn (when I was about 17!!) and some stuff I am just trying to learn now, like the tucked sidehops. Do me a favour and quit riding, I really dont wanna have to ride against you when your older :P

28mm

36mm

I am, as long as I can design it lol :P

the maggie would be a very good choice, either the louise fr or marta. They are both fit and forget brakes that work dam well!

ebay is the wonderful place to get maggie disks. Recently a marta SL went for £47, shame I missed it ^_^

I think the main reason why welded ti pares are so exspensive is because of the great difficulty. I was told how to weld ti, but I cant remembe, but all I know is its very hard, takes lots of equipment, so it all jacks the price up. Also, ti is just an exspensive matireal, so ti parts are always gonna cost more, not to mention its tool blunting properties.
