    Pedals

    My v8's have lasted about a year now. Pins ect are all fine but the bearings are about to die though. Sam
  5. I think he means the legnth of the bb shell, not the width? Sam
  6. As tomm has said you can save a fair ammount of money on the grapics card so why not splash out on some water cooling? I do a fair bit of everything on my pc and am running 512mb of ram does me fine, so ime sure you could just have 1gb of ram and be fine 2gb is a fair bit lol but tomm problie knows more than me ..
  7. Why not sell the street bike/crusier thing as thats what a bmx is for and buy a nice trials bike ?
  8. Ime sure they do a 128mm? But can you not do something like mesure the room the freewheel has till it touches the bb cup you will need about 8mm spare to run a bashgard. If you understand what I mean
  9. That has a huge amount to do with the team. After the world cup something like 4-5 player retired and many have been injured since. The players that retired whernt tag allongs to be fair they where a extreemly strong part of the team! Now when I watch a game of rugby I see maby 1/4 if that of the same team that played in the cup if that. Back to the topic though.. People like Boon don't go big doing huge sidehops and drop gaps but as said his vids are loved by everyone! I think videos are a key part to why people push them selfs so much. But also another key part is that most the riders are friends. So they there mates make them push themselfs to do things they have not yet done and work their way up untill they are going big. It does help that England has some of the best street and natural place to ride!
  10. Ive seen it being run and its fine, you may need a longer bb though? Sam
  11. Well people on mods run for 158mm(i think), 160mm, 165mm and 170mm cranks. Is their advantages and disadvantages to running long and short cranks? Personly I run 160mm because when I was buying cranks 170mm sounded huge! But have recently rode a bike with longer cranks and am thinking of going back to some nice long ones what do you think? So basicly what are the reasons to run long and short cranks? Sam
  12. Well he for sure hit his back wheel into it first ime not sure, think it was a hook ? Its no full face it just has a bit at the back; its only the best helmet ever Sam
  13. Everyone really.. Just I problie wouldunt run certan parts like koxx rims lol. Sam
  14. The man speaky the truth you normaly only get that type of virus from some propper dodgie sites eg porn or crack sites. Have a go at using system restore (if your running xp) ? Sam

    Serious Problem

    Can you not get the guy to get the bike back then take it apart and put the wheels ect to the side of the frame ? Or something like that. Sam
  19. Also make sure you take the crown race I think it is off the old forks and put them on the new ones. A crown race is the little black thing that fits in the headset it should be on the bottom of the steere tube on you old forks . If you don't want to cut the steerer tube you can just run spaces but its not reccomended as it adds weight ect and you smack your knees on them . Just get a hacksaw put the forks in the frame ect then if you wanna run a few spaces put them on aswell now put on your stem on. Draw a line arround the top of the stem, then you wanna cut a few mm below the line fit star nut ect jobs a good un!

    Money

    Good hard work. I do my paperround but the thing is i don't take days off Also save up birthday and xmas money + all my xmas tips got a fair few thiss year! I try to buy all the expensive bits 2nd hand aswell it helps. Sam
  22. Hahahahahah what are you on about !! You go get me the strongist frame on the market and ill go smack it in to a plant pot or what ever and I bet I can dent it. Every frame is going to dent it you smack it in to things they can't do anything about that. Unless you wanna ride a stupily heavy frame that is.
  23. Yer your getting too damn good to fast! I have been riding a year had me a onza tee vee now i have a t pro with loadsa pimpy bits
  24. Why not try aralditeing the insert into the cranks then just unscrew the pedle? Or maby wack the insert in a vice ect. All else fails pm me; i have an insert you can have for a few £. Sam
  25. I would say an echo team nice and strong + a nice looking frame . Bearing in mind your t pro should be about a 1020 wb I would say go for a longer team the 1030 as I can see you being quite cramped on the 1000. As said the zips and pythons are nice and strong but the 06 python would be too long for you. Gu are good but they have a really high bb at +60. Also take a look at the monty 220 ( i think) and also the toxin mods. Sam
