Its 'buy'. I have to agree with the 4 bolts comment. I have that versoin and hated it. I also have the QR version and love that! I hope you know I'm taking the piss. I know squat all about whats going on in the MTB world.

Anyone who typed crank length into the search bar without going to the homepage first, is a douch.

Really? Then why didnt I see anybody running Pikes at the EWS last weekend? 36 forx for life yo!

I dont know why I'd like to know, but was the guy on the Mic speaking English? Fabio can hop!!!

Not that exact tyre though. There were varying compounds and side wall thickness's they (Danny, Ali, Duncan and a few others) had to test ride. Bike looks sweet Leon. Loving the look of the crank set up!

How the f**k do you even manage to do something like that? Ive cracked a couple of flanges But never actually snapped one off! Is it because of grinds? Dont BMXs have skirts which go onto hubs to stop that?

Ah! I remember the one. I remember who the fan boy was too. Classic.

Sorry, no actual riding in these ones but thought i'd post up a couple of local spots I hit up last night. This ones good for everything really. Gaps, to fronts, taps, hooks, sides. It's also got an amazing amount of flange to swatch when it's sunny. Managed to go straight to back this wall too which I was happy with.

To me the splines look like worn (and less) splines of an ISIS set up. Im sure its solid though. I like the idea of not having to horse everything up tight for it to stay in place. No 175s then? Shocked at that. I thought everyone swore by 18:15 with 175s.

While we're on the subject. I thought about rolling mine forwards last night because I thought it would make the bike side hop better...That made me angry.

Was good but didnt have the same feel to it like Martyns did and seemed a bit rushed. That quarry! Oh my, take me there now.

It’s a funny one. The rocks round the edges of the river bed which lay under the trees usually have algae, moss or other shite off the trees which make them deadly. If its a raging torrent because its been raining constantly, then the river will be up and a lot of the rocks will be covered. But sometimes, its actually gripier to ride the rocks when they are super wet as it washes the algae off. As you know, you'll have to be super precise as there are no flat edges to hook your wheel over. An inch to the left or right of the sweet spot on the top of one of those rounded boulders and WEEEEEE!!!! 5. The rocks in the car park are much better in the wet than the river bed. Let’s just hope the logs will be chicken wired or carpeted. As for me, I don’t have my entry in, so....

Looks like its going to be wet. Good luck in the river bed chaps!

Looks great, John. Chop those tensioner bolts a bit. Manage to get a replacement saint lever then? Got to have them matching eh... Are you going to go as far as naming it? Marino "Beach Life"?

What wig?

Sweet video Mike!

Oohh, a 24! Cool. Stem looks shorter than would usually be run on a bike like that which im surprised about, with TRA being such a big lad.

Standing up to wipe is the worst thing I could imagine. In the event of no toilet roll being left on the holder, I still wouldn’t even think about standing up straight. It would be a squatted crab like strut to the nearest available toilet roll storage facility then the same again backwards. Any of you using baby wipes, as much as its cool and feels nice and gets a good shine on your ring, you're going to end up with a blocked toilet. They don’t degrade the same way bog roll does.

It was all part of Chris' Trial Noir concept. It made things harder by doing things wrong foot forward, not covering your brakes, only bunny hoping and no pedaling up things bla de bla de bla. As Flipp says, it earns you a little bit of respect if you're able to do it riding street as its not the easiest things to do and make it look good. I think Chris does it more to challenge himself more than anything though.

Somewhere in Switzerland this weekend. Think that's it?

I have a photo exactly like that racing line piston one. The piston does make the difference I'd say. I use two in my 04s. Aren't they white?

Bulgaria has an awesome scene. Everyone I rode with over there was rad.

Its all about the reverse cow boy/girl. Means the handle is in front of you for ease of flushing. Flushing while sat down is one of my guilty pleasures. Especially on a hot day.
