meh, i'll try and do something when i get back from work. btw, illustrator is the program best suited for logo design rather than photoshop.

QUOTE(deanie-b @ Jan 8 2006, 05:17 PM) ←Nice topic, Raises awareness of natty riding (which i absoultely detest) I think the majority of vids tend to be of the street variety 'cos streets everywhere! I think there are quite a few natty vids, I.E Johan Brundin,Peter Backgren, Theres alot of natty in sweden obviously. I also think that natural can be quite boring in a video, With street there's always more of a danger factor that makes the riding so much more favourable over natty riding. bit of a vague statement really For one it completely depends on the size and scale of the riding, but in my opinion natural is far more dangerous as its not all straight edge to straight edge (on the whole i would say street is). It doesn't have to be a massive drop gap to be dangerous even if it looks scary, its far more easy to injure yourself trying some uber tech turning gap on spikey rocks, or navigating a real slippery section than doing massive dropgaps/sidehops where the only real area of error would be due to bike failure (eg snapped chain).

errrrrm. how much preload?!

wow. thats the first time ive ever deleted a video before watching the whole thing.

I personally think that is far more beautiful than the adamant.

in terms of being upright on the back wheel i find this has a lot to do with the wheelbase of the frame you ride. For example i used to ride one of the old skool giant frames (the yellow ones) and i found that my weight was pitched far back of the end of the bike, with my front whell was still quite low. After having a couple of frames i now have a lenghty bt frame which enables me to be much more upright on the back wheel, and makes manuvering on the back wheel a shit load easier. chainstay lengths obviously play a part, but i think the reach is the main factor. basically, when on the back wheel... short reach = lower front end, harder to manuvre on the back wheel long reach = higher front end, more steep on back wheel, generally easier to manuvre (easier to boon) this is just from my expirience.

poor site. rank clothing designs. hesitant marketing. very very sloppy thumbs down. (Y)

As the title says, come ride with me Bigman and co this sunday in shrewsbury, shropshire. Should be a hoot.

its the intro track off the wiseguys album. its called re-introduction. Hope this is of use. Rob

they are a really nice frame to ride, fairly nice on the back wheel but you will have to face up to the fact that most of these frames don't last much longer than a year with out cracking somewhere. but for 80 quid you'd be lucky to find anything better. I'd go for it.

hey dude. Well this is wierd, I thought there wasn't any other riders in shropshire, and I come back to find loads! Im from shrewsbury area, bin riding around 6/7 years, and bin at uni in cornwall for the last three. Met Bigman in cornwall, now he rides at Harper Adams (telford) where hes at uni. Anyways, my msn is rathergoodpie@hotmail.com. Go for a ride soon for sure. (Y) Rob
