Rob Brodie Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 (edited) thats bull shit. if thats what you wanted that then just run a freewheel with less pickups, if the crank rotation was turned into pickups they amount they must loose is stupid not to mention the extra strain it must but on chains from the jolt. whats the point in them designing a 180 click freewheel if they are delibrately going to run it with a slack freewheel. just design a bomb proof one with less so they gets this imaginary burst of powerYou do realise that youve just TRIED to tell a world champion trials rider that hes wrong.another advantage is that if you dont make something and end up on bashguard/ring it wont stretch and/or brake your chain - street ridersbashers often put that sort of thing down to them putting so much power down but its really not (most of the time).This also explains why they make high ingagement freewheels (i.e if they make one with small amounts of ingagements then you would run your chain tight meaning youd get the problems stated above)Vids are quite good,dont really show the real vince imo.music in second vid is insane!

Ben John-Hynes Posted July 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 DAMON WATSON WOULD WIPE THE FLOOR WITH THIS SO CALLED VINCENT HERMANCE OF PARISSHIRE.That was so unfunny, I actually laughed a bit. Why did you have to bring Damon(or any other tgs rider) into this? I just fail to see why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Just as a wild guess, maybe he was taking the piss out of the usual people who name-drop UK riders like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But 'cause he said it you stick up for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Haha, sick burn. But nah, don't think I've warned someone for liking a rider for... well, ever. If people are being total c**ts in threads then yes, I might warn someone, but if someone's just saying they like a rider I wouldn't, and don't.

basher Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 You do realise that youve just TRIED to tell a world champion trials rider that hes wrong.another advantage is that if you dont make something and end up on bashguard/ring it wont stretch and/or brake your chain - street ridersbashers often put that sort of thing down to them putting so much power down but its really not (most of the time).This also explains why they make high ingagement freewheels (i.e if they make one with small amounts of ingagements then you would run your chain tight meaning youd get the problems stated above)Vids are quite good,dont really show the real vince imo.music in second vid is insane!thats bollocks, if you dont make a move you just land on your bash whats that got to do with chain stretch? he is wrong and im saying he doesn't run it for the reason about getting power or some crap. more than likely the reason is because the snail cams are crap and slipping or the fact they make the dropouts so short means he can't get it to go back enough. why doesn't giamco (sp?) run a slack chain then? he uses a tensioner.

nathie wafie Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 (edited) why doesn't giamco (sp?) run a slack chain then? he uses a tensioner.Because Atomz frames have horizontal dropouts, not vertical...simples!Back to the vid...insane riding as ever, shame the video editing wasnt to match, but good watch and find Ben Edited July 18, 2009 by nathie wafie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oakley Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Not at that style of riding, whos our best? danny butler, andre burton, ben savage, ben slinger?there britains BEST comp riders, and they dont even come in to the shadow of euopes best why!!! i feel a topic coming on, i think you will find that ben savage AND ben slinger are both in the top 10 in the world cup rankings currently, with 3 other british riders in the top 15, Andrei burton (who only dropped out of the top 10 because he missed a round due to injury), Danny butler (who also dropped out of the top 10 due to missing a round) and myself. At most world cups now a quarter of all riders in the semi final are british. and in most cases atleast one of those 5 riders nmaking the final. so less of the 'british trials riders are nowhere near the level' b0ll0cks. Because Atomz frames have horizontal dropouts, not vertical...simples!Back to the vid...insane riding as ever, shame the video editing wasnt to match, but good watch and find Ben Atoms frame have bolt through axels for the back wheel.
