Well im no basher and im not really that good yet either. People that i have riden with say i ride technical, smooth and have kind of a bmx riding style. I guese buying a short would make sense for more flicky things ect but what would be slightly harder on a short rather than long? Thanks for all your help im 90% decided on the short now

Tom mate, you should have listend to me and got a tensile, which are allot more reliable, value for money, easyer acess to the lockring and very easy to service. But anyways good luck with it lol

Yep looks like the short has the most votes at mo, least that way i can have a long frame (GU) and a short (KOXX). Just i dont want it feeling to cramped up when riding, abit like the montys do IMO

Thanks for all the comments the reason why none of us ever really show rocks in our vids is cause we are so bored of them, but its a good pointer for the next vid. Yea Mr hulk mans stack was pritty funny lol and scotts just looked damn painful Erm well Ad you have met: Rob on the t-rex me GU Scott GU (blue wheels) Darren (monty) i think youv'e met Lew on the t-mag afew times You havn't met Ben on the adamant A1 cause hes never out i dont think youve met griff on the adamant A3 either cause hes always working on the days you come down.

K cool thanks for that reply no it does make sense lol, thats 1-0 to the short then.

Right i really cant decide what would ride better. im around 5.8 and ride a GU07 which is about the same length as a long hydroxx but im thinking would a short hydroxx be better as im not exactly tall. I like to ride with a technical style & mainly ride street. What would be the pros and cons of each version? Also id be running a rear hs33, would the frame flex allot? as ive noticed many peeps run a rear disc on these frames. Thanks for any helpful advice and sorry for the kind of newbie question.

That vid was mint Reece, youv'e got sooo much better in these last months. You gota come down again soon mate.

Are your cables long enough?

Thanks for those comments & yep reece that was scott stacking it lol

Any more comments on this vid wether they be good or bad ????????????????

yep i do ride mod. I think i will try the typhoon mod out, It'l be interesting to see what they weigh.

Well personaly i found the 06 GU to be more flicky i do own a 07 and its alright just seems alil stiff for my liking but thats just my opinion.

I'l come out if i get me wheels back from tarty in time.

Yep the GU Typhoon looks me favourite out the bunch. Hope it rides better than the 07.

Nice lil vid there scott, your bail was funny and i cant believe you actualy have footage of ben riding his bike

Nah i got bored of the black its to plain. The pink looks groovy lol

Thanks for all your replies glad you all like it so far, yea it has cost me allot of money but she's me pride & joy lol the rotor works well, i never really noticed a great improvment in braking power or anything but it looks nice and does hold when gapping to front wheel

Current spec for those who care: GU 07 frame GU 06 forks GU bash ring GU headset (not shown in pics) Surly fixed cog Try-all grips Try-all pink rims F&R Profile rear hub Viz front disc hub Echo BB Echo snail cams Zoo riser bars Zoo cranks Maxxis Tyres Hope mono trial 07 front disc Viz gothic rotor HS33 rear brake, braided hose, 74 kingz tpa, adamant lever, GU brake clamps & Heatsink snowies Monty PR stem Shin dig pedals KMC kool chain Think thats everything.

I'l try come out depends on wether i get me wheels built up right though lol. Hopefuly see you guys on saturday.

That was a pritty sick video, enjoyed that allot the editing was very good and the riding was even better

Looking good Tom!!!

Personal opinion but ive found the rock pads blue to be the best performing pads for a medium grind & they are great in wet or dry weather. Koxx browns are also very good although you will find they will kill your grind relatively quick.

Awesome vid, very smooth & beasty riding. i think mod is the way forward . see you in clacton sometime

Yeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaa!!! Was a great lil ride yesterday enjoyed it long time even with me injuries Yeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaa!!! lol
