  1. My bars are 39" with onza stem 120mmx17 and onza risers... Stock... Id guess mod will be alot lower...
  2. Looking at it Im gunna say its a rebranded onza hog rim. I have the hog and it is EXACTLY like that, same machined sidwalls, same eylets, same rim tape, same colour, same profile. Guessing its just out of a catalouge in tiwan or wherever. Mines been good, flatspots pretty easily, but seems strong enough. Acording to tarty, the hog weighs 801g.

    Braces

    Yea, but aparantly if they move anymore in a certain way then I could have issues with my like biting or somthing, and wear the tops of my molars away which doesnt exactly sound great. Also you say youv never seen my bottom teeth, I guess thats like a good thing, because theyd be less noticable... Does anyone know if my top teeth are abit off, but bottom ones are fecked wether or not theyl take the top ones off quicker? or will that mess up the interlocking thingy.. I am still savagly pissed off that I gotta have em so late in life, but I guess I got alot of living left to do and living with better teeth will be alll good maybe if there not sorted after 18months il have em off, go get an amazing job, and get some nice dental work done that sorts them out there n then... orrrr maybe not.
  4. So people shouted your name during a careers speech? I dont get it.

    Braces

    Right, Im 17 a week this friday. Despite the fact that I have been to a brace place twice in the last like 3 or so years, they always told me I dont need braces, despite my savagly messes up teeth. However every time i go to the dentist he refers me back to a brace place and tells me I really should get braces. In honesty my teeth are f**kED the bottom ones are like touching each other nearly with a tooth pushed behind them Im not a toothy smiley person so to be honest no one realllyyyy notices, But I do and it does annoy me. I would have to have a rear molar out, and wear braces for 18months I do belive, and allowing for a 3 month waiting list, by the time they come off Il be not too far off 19..... Now heres the thing, I dont wana sound like a complete arrogant penis but at most partys I go to I do tend to get with a gir after a few drinks and massive of poor chatting up on my part, in fairness normally Im quite hammered and the quality of girl isnt always amazing. However I dont really wana loose that ability, if anything I would like it to become more "involved" Im sure in saying that I sound like a total penis but surley its only right? My questions to you are, Have any of you ever had braces on this late in life? Did it affect your feminine attracting powers, and how noticable were they if you wernt massivly smiley. Also pain? food? and have you had to have that much stuff done, I.E tooth removed etc. and how did that turn out? I do plan on getting them as I figure even if I do get NO feminin interest for a year and a half I should have good teeth for the rest of my life, so i figure--> worth it. to be honest though Im mentally self consious about it, Im not a confident person as it is, having braces at 18 isnt exactly my idea of good(no offence at all to anyone who has them, after all I too will have them). I need to know if I should plan to dedicate the next year and a half to riding and no socialising lol. Sorry to be a penis
  7. 170mm cranks on mod ***. IMO anyway it feels way nicer and is alot easier to get the power from your legs, into the move, Iv never bought aftermarket cranks in anything under 170.

    Grips

    Sam come out tonight, if there not already off il do it for you.
  9. Word on the street is 07s are wank. If I was getting one Id get an 05 or 06. EDIT: really nice btw, love pythons.
  10. Metal chair leg next to my bed. to be honest Im even more amature at fighting than any robber so all this grabbing there hand with a knife in shit int gunna work.

    Grips

    Yea sam either cut em off, or get a thinish screwdriver, shove it as far under the grip as you can get it, and squirt water/lube/hairspray under there, pull screwdriver out, and twist.
  12. Yea the pic makes it look shite, its the light/ samsung camera phones have shocking colour, its far brighter in the flesh and the wheels do go, just not as well as it did with the orange. Nah I had an 06 pure, which cracked on the left hand CS and SS. although I have ridden a 07 short pure and I gotta say this is IMO much nicer, dont like the headangle on the 07 pure atall.
  13. Pure gained another crack wich was growing at speed! So i had to get a new frame. It also has a new BB in it. It weighs a ton but it rides really nice, loving the extra BB height Sorry, shoddy phone pic. Spec: Zona zenith frame echo control forks echo forged cranks echo external BB VP pedals Hope XC front, Pro 2 rear echo 07 front rim, Onza hog rear Maggy rear, sd5/7 combo vee front rear minion 2.5 front try all.

    Lol, yea Sam its gunna take like a long time, hours or so.....
  15. O dear god I hope thats not the girl I think it is. Shes a MASSIVE pikey and has a BF with a kid or somthing like that. Anyway, It was such a good day, ultimate weather. Massive thanks to Charlie, Sam and Sue DJ would have been so proud and happy Im sure.
  16. I would imagine so, I would also Imagine they will be pretty shoddy. Just wait and get echo lites or somthing. I dunno I guess theyl be ok, just not great for any hooks, anything to front etc.
  17. yay, I saw myself in the background Was such a good day, really good pics too man.
  18. cracks spreading. Need a new frame. Hmmm.
  19. Having ridden a revel Im gunna say, DONT GET ONE. They are actually horrible. Bleaurgghhhhhhh You could always get another base? They improved the design as alot of those frames went there i belive. Plus the ta26 is currently £99 from tarty bikes which is a great deal, also the base's geo. is very suited to the type of riding your after... OR get a leeson/other 24" bike Leesons are steel and if you break them they will repair it for you (they make a 26" frame aswell) Or other 24" bikes like an inspired which are cheaper than the leeson... However this would mean new rims... But again these bikes are great for the more streety style you aspire to ride, and from what I hear the inspireds are also very nice to ride for "real" trials.
  20. jeez, its been about 16hours since it was packed up and I know that Iv been asleep for 9 of those. videos do take time to make you know. And for an event like that you will want to put time and effort into the edit to make it as good as possible. Patience.
  21. And a 12 tooth rear cog
  22. What A great day Was just as amazing as all previous years if not better. As has been previously mentioned massive thanks to Sam, Sue and Charlie for setting it up and organising such an amazing event. Loved it. And considering what a pasty white boy I am Im suprisingly Un-burned...
