It wasn't a standard Skye framekit, so just getting a replacement isn't that easy. That was a completely fresh build he'd put together just before last weekend, and the only other framekit like that was the old one he'd had before then. It was in his red Evoc bikebag, but I don't think the flashy-ness of the bikebag was really what caused it to get stolen.

He'd had his bike in the flat, then at a later stage de-built it and put it into the bike bag which then went into his van. There was a load of smashed glass from a car window next to where Danny's van was parked (but no car next to it any more when Danny found his bike was stolen) too so it could just have been some dicks going out to try and steal shit rather than it necessarily being a targeted thing.

stronger than most plus the bash and sprocket combo is lower profile than the other options. Steel cranks open up other possibilities like crank slides and junk.

I put mine on just before I did two months of demos every day for nearly two months which involves a 10ft and 7ft drop multiple times in a show. My bars were a noticeably different shape after the shows. This year I had my arcade bars on for an even longer demo tour and they lasted fine and I'm still using them now.

you go and start your own company and get your frames made to a high standard, low quantity and a good price and then tell us what should and shouldn't be faced for what price. I'm fed up of you telling everyone what should and should be done when you've been riding trials less than most. and have no clue.

no servo wave-no care.

I run about 45psi, with Maxxis and around 40psi with Contis I run my bars in line with the forks, makes bunnyhops a lot smoother then. Yeah, seat angle needs sorting

actually ridiculous! Ive ridden there hundreds of times and know how big that stuff is, Jacks level is un-real.

my saints are 4 years old (and second hand) and have never been bled.

I hate the new short levers which is why I'm still running the older style brake. A trialzone for street will glaze over pretty easily from my experience. You'd be better off with the 4 pot DH brake (although they have too much pad wobble for my liking) I've ordered a new pair of MT5 brakes, might mate them up with my saint levers to get the advantage of the servo wave. If the other MT brakes are anything to go by, power shouldn't be an issue

I had a prototype of that rear hub on multiple bikes for over two years I think, never had a single issue.

DJ riders don't have to muscle the bike around as much as BMX or trials though, they just go fast and the ramp does (most of) the work. Saying that, I ride shows with a DJ rider and his bike is just under 11kg, he really hates the wind though. BMXs are generally not that heavy either, ~10kg seems to be fairly average for a street setup. I'd be after a less effort for hops and spins than any potential stability a heavier bike might add.

that's a very low front end!

serious backwards manual skills! Loved it!

perhaps needs a little quality control on some of the lines but otherwise very enjoyable, he kept some good flow and I loved that front wheel work on the banking

so so gutted I have a clashing demo I really wanted to go and try and blast around Blue (or maybe Red) route as fast as possible

he just runs what he's given

never had a single issue with mine, Danny's never broken one either

The reason I use/used them is because of the extra stiffness they have and reduced chances of bending. The alloy versions are actually heavier than the steel ones too.

so so good

good stuff man

think I'm on 30 or 35mm of spacers, but my stem steerer clamp is quite tall, if I was to run a Hope stem which is shorter I'd be closer to 40mm of spacers This is how it looks

good riding, awful editing
