Hello

Aslong as theres no bashring being used, Then yes.

Very True. Its either got a bit too much grease in it or its just bedding in a little. Give it a quick clean and it should be good.

Get some chain tensioners then and it wont move.

Quite enjoyed that. Just as i start to ride bmx more aswel lol.

Its normally easyer to sidehop to your opposite foot(Right footed - Sidehop left) as it will give you more clearance from the wall and it allows you to have more room to tuck(No, Dont try to tuck. But it just happens when you start doing higher walls/rocks etc). But not in all cases, As Neil T displays quite nicely. My advice. Learn to go the opposite way, It will feel gash and horid to begin with. It did for me. But once you get it then its alot easyer. Im right footed and the highest i got to my right before i changed was 38" ish(Just over bar). I changed to the left and i have done 50". Can get around 45" pretty consistantly depending on the set-up and stuff.

Probably the least of his worries, Considering its got no chain and sprocket just now

Aslong as the chains tight it wont come off the sprockets.

Mate used to have one, Just sold it on to get a new bike. But it rode absolutely amazing. Would have rode it over my bike anyday(And did on many occasions). It didnt even have a front brake and i still rode it better than i did my own bike. Wack a nice set of risers on it and it will ride amazingly. For both Street and Natty.

Monty's are designed to have the snail cams run on the outside. You'll be best off just running them on the outside to be honest. Unless you want to streach the back of the frame out a bit, But its not going to do any good to your rear end doing that.

Is the chain loose? Is the chainline squint atall? Is the chain old and worn out/streached? Could be one of those.

Very True. It was fine aslong as it involved no moving parts what so ever Not the 06 rims though.

Part maybe so, Bearings. Well he's always sucked at them(In my opinion).

More to the point, What happened in 04-06?

Dont really need a bashplate unless your planning on hammering your frame. Just run a Bashring and you'll be fine. Just dont go trying to get to bash off a 7ft wall or something. (Plus no bashplate is lighter, If your into that kind of thing )

You werent riding Trials till begining of 09/end of 08 (I think)

There not fixed in the cups Ive had the bearings out of loads of deng headsets. I was taking Luke's bb out and his headset bearings fell out, Yes. Thats just how good Deng really is. Touch the bb and the headset falls to bits, Quality parts there

Ive snapped sooo many pairs of plastic backings its unbelieveable. I thought they would be good but i went through litrilly 5 sets of backings in under a week. Lucky i wasnt doing anything dodgy on a rail to be honest. Or i might not have a face just now. So i run Heatsink backings front and back now. And yes, Ive snapped one piston before. But one piston snap is surely better than snapping plastics on a daily basis(For me).

My Gu 06 long measures just under 1050 last time i measured it.. Maybe try looking for one of them, There nice. Good bb rise on them. Not too hight but not too low either.

When your bashing it in. Try not to have the wood resting on the bearing. As you might crush them if it is. So be careful with that if you can.

Hunter. Ill do it when you need it done, if you want?

I love you Dave

Night Tf.

Wouldnt be after one too soon if i do decide to get one. Was just wondering for the future as its been a while since ive had a nice new frame.

Hmm, Does Dan Ko still have Ko frames in his shop/garage/wherever T-Uk is based? If so I could find someone who knows him personally and get them to buy it off him then send it out to me?
