lankyri Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 chains fine mate. first ride on it and i liked it only played on small walls due to a horibble rear brake but it was easy to get onto the rear wheel and keep balance with minimal hops did like a 6ft gap with ease and backwheeling i need to get but well worth getting one and as there 150 cant go wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lankyri Posted February 29, 2008 Report Share Posted February 29, 2008 lol my tensioner and its story of how it was made by ricky appletonright one day i went out in my garage for a fag and i was looking around and found an old rear mech so i decided to take it appart, and it all fell apart. after finishing my fag i thought i could re build it but make it simpler. so got me drill out and lil spanner and made a hole for quick release and put on a smaller jockey wheel. bent the metal into shape and then fitted itand as its being held on by qr as long as your wheel is tight it will not move and also as its on a qr you basically have 180 degrees in which direction so i made it right up by my frame also if you look at the tensioner when you want to re tenstion your wheel its got a little handle which is easy to pullash kennard eat your heart out 'jokes'also when i was at work i removed some false walls and found a huge 8ft vent so decided to take it apart and theres a couple of strips of metal which would be perfect to make more as my only downfall with the tensioner its like 2mm thick so wont be that strong if people want pics of the tensioner on its own let me know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
