Lawnmowerman Posted November 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 Cheers for the comments guys. Ground the rear rim, changed the tyres and took the pegs off earlier. Was riding really good considering I've not ridden for nearly 3 years. Even did a gap up to a wall from about 5ft away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawnmowerman Posted November 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 The rim smooth was about as effective as pissing in the wind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 Mmm, looks nice. How are the pegs attached? To funbolts? Or to the frame?Good to see one of the old-school riders who quit actually getting back into it anyway Yeah its what the streety trials shizz has started to be called Errr, according to which dumbass?

Lawnmowerman Posted November 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 They are inset into the frame and the whole back end is held together with one long bolt. I'll get a detailed pic of it tomorrow. Clive is a bloody genius! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poopipe Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 Some more detailed pics of how the peg is attached.That bolt aint gonna last long and when it does go you can say goodbye to your internals and your dropouts.personally I'd go pegless or only use them like a pussy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawnmowerman Posted November 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 It's easily strong enough, the peg is inset into the frame by over an inch. I'll be using the pegs but very lightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom_ Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 any pics of it with the new tyres and jazz? Really like that, not big on the pegs but hey your bike etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusevelt Posted November 17, 2007 Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 (edited) So i suspect youll be doing bmx peg moves of Hang5, Backyard, Backyard megaspins, Lawnmower, Undertaker on ledges eh!

Lawnmowerman Posted November 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2007 no offfense , but apart from the pegs whats's good about it?I dunno, it depends what you like in a bike really. If it's not your taste fair enough.So i suspect youll be doing bmx peg moves of Hang5, Backyard, Backyard megaspins, Lawnmower, Undertaker on ledges eh! Nope, I've never really been any good with pegs. Best I can do is feebal to smith and 180 feebal 180 out. Flatland isn't really gonna work on a trials bike either.Why are you so cocky?

Tomm Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 Ah, so the end of the axle actually makes up the 360 dropout insert. That's pretty clever actually. I'd still be slightly dubious about the strength, but it's a good idea anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom_ Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 That is actually so nice, wish i could afford a lesson, looking into 24uks or inspired. How are you finding 24 compared to "real" trials bikes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawnmowerman Posted November 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Because I'm gonna use them for grinding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusevelt Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Because I'm gonna use them for grinding.in that case i guess you havent seen the full teaser of Crux dvd where Dylan does an insane rail grind down a steep flight of steps, using only the rear dropout minus pegs.

Tomm Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 I've seen it, and yet I can see why people might want pegs. Work that one out. 400million* BMXers can't be wrong. So shhhh.*Estimate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eskimo Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 I'm suprised that bike can even take pegs. I can imagen everything snaping off. But i guess it's how you use it, so what do you use it for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
