    Addictive Food

    Toast. If its hot and the butter is spread well on a nice white bread i could eat a whole loaf if it wasn't for my toaster only allowing 2 slices at a time! I find Haribo addictive but i can't eat that many. Same with most stuff, but Toast i could keep going forever. [edit] I fogot, Stawberry milk. Makes me feel fat but it's so nice.
  2. I had an enormous break from trials and only got back into it a few months back. I like the people mostly as they don't seem stuck up like a majority of bmxers. so.. If your serious, inch pushing, messing about, i don't care as long as your not stuck up about it.
  3. I just seen a pic of one of them. They don't look very nice to me. All to their own.
  4. Surely it will add a bit of colour difference between bikes now. Well a little. Most Pythons have green rims so maybe having a green bash on it would make it look a bit different. But getting the bash on would be a little, um, difficult. But that was just a (bad) example. Maybe having black parts and just one coloured part (a bash) could look kinda cool.
  5. I remember seeing this guy get a pinch. I gave him a new tube and he gave 3 quid for my troubles. He showed me that he had a bmx tyre inside him other tyre. Kinda cool but obviously didn't work. He was also running a moto bike chain. What a nice guy he was
  6. The hardest part i find is the hop off the front wheel to spin the other 180. Try hopping off the front wheel when the back wheel is at a high point then it should hop easier. I find thats works for me. Also try doing it without rolling. From a trackstand. Hope that helps.
  7. Those street riders hanging out with Mirra. I would of thought it should be quite funny as well. The riding level is high as well. I wonder if he pulled that feeble to over that ledge at the start.
  8. When i had my Monty i was running Milk pads and Monty spray. I remmeber it being louder than my current setup which is Echo Lite, Coust pads (cnc) and no booster. Plus it held harder as well
  9. I haven't got a clue, sorry. Heres the link. Try ringing Dan or emailing him. He should respond today as hes online every day.
  10. I'm running a pair and the steerer is more than long enough for my Echo lite frame. Strength wise i couldn't say that would be any use as the trial's bike doesn't get ridden all that much. The steerer is once piece now though
  11. Didn't my post above just get repeated? Sorry couldn't resist having a dig.
  12. Thats definitely one of the funniest ones Why not some Anodized Stickers? Put an Echo sticker on your Zoo
  13. That is a very nice bike! Any more bikes with no tensioners?
  14. Does seem a hard one to figure out. Maybe we should ask him for a video or pics to see how much abuse the bike has been through. and maybe ask how he got the dent. I leave that one to someone else as i've already emailed him.

    Bmx Questions

    Get ready for your bike to blow away in the wind. It is light. Lighter than your trials bike.

    Bmx Questions

    Sounds like your not to bothered and just for a change which is cool. Most bmx frame have all the same angles and the back ends tend to be ruffly the same. These frames are light compared to your Macneil. So you will be astonished when you set it up. So you don't run pegs. Then you won't need a solid frame. Do you run a brake and would you like gyro tabs? I found this Mankind. Might be one for you? If i didn't run pegs i would get this. Out of your price range but worth it! If weight isn't an issue then you could get a cheap frame which is on sale. Like a Federal or Mutiny. 100 quid not bad. Tell me what you think.
  17. Notice he doesn't say about any parts that don't have their name written on. For example the forks. If they had 'echo' or 'zoo' written down the side on them then maybe he would have listed them. or maybe they are lame forks so he didn't describe them. But yes the lack of description isn't a great selling point so maybe it is stolen. Hopefully not and the kid is just dumb. I will ask him if he could list me a better spec. I will edit when i get a reply.
  18. Sorry to keep the thread going even though i know you all hate it. ..But reading about stolen bikes and riders having their bikes trashed or been given abuse is more annoying as it just reminds me of how crap/ gay (sorry) some places (i acutally mean people) are!
  19. Maybe ask profile if they can ship you some for cheaper? You never know.
  20. I do perfer, not having a seat to having a really really tiny Megamo seat. The comments you get aren't as bad. But don't people ever realise that there isn't actually anywhere to put a seat??

    Macneil pegs for the win. Just my opinion. I run one on the rear and a Animal light up front. As were on the twisting discusion now. Bongo or anyone any pointers on 360in a spine? Just a few tips would be cool. I keep looping out
  22. Winstanleys suck full stop. I can happily say that as i know 99% people will agree so i can say this without causing havuck in this thread. You like to buy from Tartybikes, yes? The money also goes to back into riding which is great. Some other cool places. Cyclone Alans Custom Riders
  23. I so want a stock bike now but hate the fact of tensioners of all kinds. I wondered have many of you managed to set up a stock drive chain with just say a eno and fixed sprocket? If so how does it work and what setup you running? frame, gearing etc I was maybe thinking of one of the mod 26"ers. [EDIT] A left hand tensioner? I couldn't find anything. I would of thought it was a common idea?
