    Pedalling Up

    Yeah thanks man, I will keep practising, I did it once or twice but only using a tap to get up my front end (shit scary B) ) Thanks again everyone, Nathan :P ;) PS: I got my 18-16 set-up ready and got up the wall well easy :P Aiming to be getting up waist height for next year when I go to Cromer and Wales with my mate (hopefully) B)
  3. Try browsing everywhere you can think of, onza sites, or other forums... Sorry I can't be of any help... Nathan :$
  4. Looks and sounds like giro's are the dogs, I'd go for one of them, that's what I'm gona get when I get one after xmas :$ Nathan ;)
  5. Yeah sounds like your taper and spline is f****d to me... And Jason I don't know whether you can take/send middleburns back but does it have warantee/guarantee on it? Otherwise you might be able to get just a left one from someone on the forum or from ebay :$ B) Hope this helps guys, Nathan ;)

    Pedalling Up

    Well no because I can't pull my front end up high enough (don't know why) but I did learn to do sort of a tap bunnyhop up, it's scary though... :o I think I'll just run my 16 at the back and if its still too low but it IS easier then I'll get a 15/14 Thanks very much for the help guys, is there anything about technique that I could improve on? I normally just do a 3/4 pedal and get up, I found that when I moved onto the slightly bigger wall yesterday, I had to throw myself up and over to get up instead of just hopping up... Do I need to throw myself up a lot or do I need to bring the bike underneath me? Cheers, Nathan (Y) :o I also woudn't mind being able to bunnyhop to back wheel, but I can't pull off the back, I don't know whether it's my stem or something because I'm really struggling with it... Any advice? Cheers, Nathan :)
  7. Sorry to steal your topic but I run a very, very gay promax stem because it has a decent rise... I have a Zoo! Pitbull but I found that my 5 deg. stem in my shed felt really really low, and its too long... (I ride mostly street - just lurching and hopping up stuff) Could anyone suggest a decent stem (like a hifi) that DOESN@T have bar bulge as I run Azonic WF's Thanks very much guys, Nathan >_< :huh:

    Pedalling Up

    Cheers lads, I'll try my 16 tooth at the rear and see how I go, then I'll swop back or to a 15/14 depending how it is... I did feel like I was pedallin too fast to be able to physically do it but I dunno... Cheers anyway guys :huh: ^_^ Any other hints would be great >_< (N)
  9. Probably this guy's koxx levelboss 20" brand new at the cromer carnival - NICE! >_<
  10. Now thats better, still a street frame though... >_<

    Pedalling Up

    I've searched and searched the forum for advise on pedalling up, but there isn't any general advise on it. I have looked around all the how-to's o all the sites but it doesn't really help... I've nailed the basic move, but I'm struggling a lot. I have been able to hop up a 1 foot wall and there's one slighly bigger and I just can't do it :S I run an 18-18 ratio, do I need to change it? Is there any advise to help me in general? Is it just a case of practise-practise-practise? Thanks a lot, please help :- (N) :)
  14. Nice, will it be as heavy as the vinco?
  15. I don't like it, too short, too street style... Expensive too :S
  16. Oooo that's strange, is your steerer tube ok in your forks, and no I don't think it would be worth messing about with warranty Cheers, Nathan :P
  17. Oh shit now I'm scared :turned: I just bought my new pitbull I'll try to put your snapped one to the back of my mind (Y)
  18. My mate just got his new 05 t-mag and he said his came right to the lever but after he'd pulled it about 30-40 times it adjusted itself! :D Well I hope you get it done (Y) :P Instead of crushing your fingers :turned: OWWW! That hurts! :P

    Gu Frames

    My pitbull feels lovely and its got a little bb rise, however I wouldn't be able to advice you on any other than the pitbull because I don't hardly even know any riders except my mate who rides a 20" t-mag :turned:
