    Hey Rav welcome back. will you be making frames again? i really like my spiderman 8.0 until it cracked. if your making frames again one thing i think you need to look at is chain tension/brake alignment. Almost all frames are made to suit 18:15,some people myself included prefer 18:16,but with this ratio we have chain tension and brake pad alignment issue, its a problem since all frames have gone horizontal drop outs.. If you could come up with a idea so that you could use any gearing and still have brakes line up and have horzontal drop outs that would be fantastic. i have a few ideas myself,if you want me to send them to you?

  4. I dont have any problems with side hops.they are a good move,however every video that come out these days is just sidehops. A person i ride with only side hops,we find some awsome lines around town and he spend the entire ride side hopping up a wall. personally i think there over done,and with all the hype about only sidehops.
  5. Agree with all the above posts. I'm getting sick of only seeing side hopes

    Thanks man,I really only enjoy riding natural.I have a hex for street riding. I only rode street trials in this video to mix up the terrain
  9. Are you sure about this? Because the mounts are alloy you don't really need to drill,you use the tap that comes with the kit.it's made to have the same thread as the out side of the helicoil. Screw in the helicoil and your good to go.remember you need the m5 helicoils set.

    Thanks man. I really like the frame.it feels awsome.
  11. hey guys,i just finished making my newst video on my onza limey,check it out and let me know what you think.
  12. does any one run 18:16 with this frame,im looking at getting one and really want to know if 18:16 works, i
  13. fairly sure king make headsets that fit. you cant use the money side as an excuse.when you ride trials you know stuff gonna break. we accept that we have to replace bars and forks every 6 months etc,basically replacing your bike on a yearly basis
  14. 1100WB is awsome,for pure trials
  15. i used rims with the angled sidewalls,i just bomb down a hill and wear them into the rim
  16. gotta remember that the gp tires are made super sticky and thick to allow them to last,a set of warn tire would be old and hard.so really wouldnt have that much more grip.
  17. I think this has to do with it.Im also a big dude.im 6foot 3 and weigh 110kg I used to get a few hours out of kool chains,snapped 3 times in one day. Ive tried every sort of strong chain. I was sick of breaking chains so i got the khe collapse chain(prone to stiff links) used them for ages,probly 1.5 years. Never snapped one,just replaced when got to many stiff links. when i build up my new bike,becuause i was making it lighter i opted for a lighter chain,now rocking a kmc 510hx and its going strong. been using the same one since august with no issues,also using on on my brakeless bike. I found that i was consentrating on my feet work alot more and not being as brutal it became second nature and my riding has gotten better im not really killing chains like i used to. FWIW i still use the joining clip(due to sucking at joining chains.) ive never had any issue with the join.ive always snapped my chains away from the joint.

    Reason To Be 4

    spot on with this comment
  19. with HS33 you just need to learn to modulate it,i love my front HS33 and really cant ride disc any more. the little effort to full lock is so rewarding.
  20. im 6'3 and use a 150x35 on my stock.it was the best thing i ever done
  21. looks good man,what stem is that?
  22. hahahaha,agreed. remember we all gotta use pallets on our sidehops aswell.
