  1. oooooooh, be very careful! I was in this posisition... and ended up ripping my bottom bracket out of the threads... lol Erm.. what i done was get 2 big crow bars, and stick the lever end between BB and crank, then pushed (asif you were trying to take crank arm off... duh!) then mine flew off. And then i put it back on for some reason, and to take it off again... thats when i stripped the BB threads... and had to glue the BB into frame... lol Erm... Angle grind it off only way you will get it off
  2. your hubs fooked mate. I dunno exactly what it is... But at my LBS, when i took a fooked axel/wheel there, they told me that inside the hub, the axel had raped it, and would need replacing... i got it replaced, and wayhey!! I want a better BMX lol
  3. Disks need a smooth braking surface, because of their compound of their pads. If you had a "grind" on your rotor, the pads will just file down straight away and make ALOT of dust... lol And also your brake wouldnt work, and would just make a very loud squeek! lol Anyways, disks these days work well enough...
  4. Its actually near impossible to do.. and costs a fortune to do so...
  5. They look wank with the rubber bit on lol
  6. lol, no worries. You need to lighten up on your riding lol ATM, im using koxx red pads, on a DEAD GRIND, and they FRICKEN AMAZING!!!!! lol They bite like fook, and they are loud as fook... and hold like fook.. lol This is only after i touched them very hard on the flat surface of my angle grinder, just to "glossen" the surface up, like you do on koxx browns to make them better, and as soon as i done this, my brake went fricken AWESOME!!!! lol Thanks.
  7. I did my W/E in Citroen Car Sales, and i was the mechanic. Put me off being a mechanic for life
  8. their for pussies... thats why the other lads bike doesnt have them
  9. Will shut up? Atleast i can actually grind my rim. Anyways, i dont use harsh grind any more, and if you know what i call harsh, it isnt actually that harsh... more like... medium, to some people! Light in my terms is... erm... VERY LIGHT!!! like only JUST touching the rim with the grinder... So shut the f**k up.. please.
  10. Hell yeah, you should hear my pads Hehe, i had the plaz pads well over 1 year ago, they wear on a VERY harsh grind lol. I didnt even set the brake up very well, cause i didnt know how lol. But, now with my reds, i finally sorted them this morning, after not riding for 2 full weeks, and now they are BEAST!!!!
  11. Why not just get a Hope XC, mine has served me VERY well....
  12. I had some, they fully wore out within 2 weeks. I think its cause the first day i got them, i slowed down on a hill using the brake, before they were even bedded in... and they wore like 3/4 of the way and then after that, they were total wank. Worst £18 iv ever spent Koxx reds is where its at!!!
