  1. sucks man! i wish my bike looked that cool. Get a leeson for sure, with et geometry (Y) Tom
  2. the start was abit random (reasons explained) But it really did work and reaaly did look good! Really nice video teaser. Cant wait for the rest Tom
  3. I ment after the final 1/2 turn of all driveside spokes its a good build :D dont worry, CRC got a disapointment email, no reply thou (Y)
  4. Why not? I had one built about a week ago, the build quality is ace, but they hadnt tensioned the right hand side so the whole wheel is dished to the left had to whip out the spoke key and tension all the right side half a turn. Other then that its a really good build! That sounds the same wheel as his up there, just not with silver spokes(mavic 321 on hope red xc with silver dt swiss spokes) Cheers Tom (i know i answered my own question a little, but if they did the tensioning right i think it would have been a spot on build)

  11. Thats an AMAZING video, the riding is huge but styled, the editing is good but not over the top, The song is ace. All in all a well deserved 10/10!!!! Thanks Tom
  12. watched at a mates Didnt enjoy it at all really, just as mod 661 said, to big, no style. I have read the thread and have read you are good at natural and congratulate you on that. But at street whats te point in going emmensely big, and not being styled about it? admittadley fair does for having the balls to do a 12 foot drop and what not, But its just not clean at all. btw This is MY OPINION before you slate it. Not a huge fan of the song either thou, might of contributed. Good effort thou Cheers Tom

    Cranks

    Deffo square taper burns, Mine feel as stiff, if not stiffer then my Isis truvativ husslefelt crankset on me other bike. Highly recomonded by me :) Tom

  17. haha!! i got this aswell, and i havent been to sixth form for 4-5 weeks either lol.i thinks its something to do with the percentage you had before you left was heigh enough for 4 weeks not to drop it beloow 95% so you where still eligable for the bonus :)

    Cranks

    If the cranks are slightly rounded(which it sounds like) Get a coke can, and cut squares out of it the same size as the taper of your crank arms, then put them inside the crank are and mallet the bugger on, then put your bolt in and tighten it and ride away. But this should only be a temporary job until you can afford the new crankset/ it arivves. Cheers Tom

    Kot

    :) That front rim must weigh NOTHING! Double drilling per spoke, and emmensley drilled sidewalls! :D Cheers Tom
  20. In therory i think the thin version would be stronger. Think about when you snap a pencil, the longer the pencil is the easier it is to snap, the shorter it is the harder, i know where talking like mm here, but should still have an effect. Thinner gets my vote Tom
