Nice one dude! Castle park sidehop is massive! Gap to bench in the art college too. Beast.

So were you going 'round copying (and often one-upping on) Kyle, or was he copying you? Wicked riding in both videos. You should make more!

I'd rather that. Shindigs are rather unpleasant, but they don't cost anything to heal. New forks are £100

Haha. Not biased by any chance, are you? I was dubious as soon as I heard Rockman were attempting a street frame. Hex's look a lot nicer too.

Whatever happened to the Switch? I'd forgotten about them until reading this. Must've been really bad. I was having a similar problem - though not with BB rise. Turns out I prefer a long mod with short chainstays, but I'm a basher. Then the Echo came out. In summary - don't worry... One'll come along soon (so long as people like you keep making their complaints public ).

I couldn't own it, 'cause I really can't get on with stocks, but that is achingly pretty. Back when I first started, that was the bike I always wanted 'cause they looked so nice, but brakeless... Even better.

I'd say so. That's where they all crack if they don't go on the 4bolt mounts, so you can't think they might last. Probably worth getting whoever does it to weld a gusset on top as well. Might make it last a little longer.

On about half the solo-rides, never with company. Assorted electronica (normally) when I do.

No more Caelifera? Beasty as ever, but he looks far too big for that bike. Maybe it's the lens distorting things.

Not really a fair test though, is it Stan rides so smooth I'd be willing to put money on that if he had a full carbon frame, it'd still last longer than an ally frame with an average rider.

Been with them before and they were fine, but in student house this year I was with Virgin, and they were a f**king nightmare. First few weeks were fine, got pretty decent speeds most the time. But we got capped, disconnected and cut off alltogether at several points. Pricing was massively inconsistent as well. Supposedly unlimited bandwidth, but got charged for going over. Sometimes quite heavily. Worth mentioning I was in a student-dense area, so that was likely the main issue - but even so. I'll not be going with them ever again.

Lizardmen in the non-40k, followed by 'Nids and Necrons later on. I kind of miss it, I think. Hideously overpriced, but I did get serious enjoyment out of it at the time.

By all accounts we should be there for 11/11:10, but no promises

Josh and I will be there, but could you stick around for us this time please? We were about 10 minutes late last time and you'd all gone off already.

Isn't your bike silver? Haha. Kidding. That's possibly the best cake I've seen.

Did you even read the question? Plastics. Always. Never had metal backings be anything but detrimental - including Heatsink Yellows. Mind you, I can't set a brake up for toss as I'm fairly crap at maintenance.

So it WAS you I was riding alongside in Portsmouth. On the wavy bench bit, thought it looked like you, but you got a whole new bike since last I saw, which threw me right off Sweet video!

Consider switching from foam to rubber/rubber to foam grips maybe? I used to use rubber, then switched to foam. Got used to it, and now any substantial time on rubber grips makes my hands hurt. Edit: different diameters might make a difference. What about your lever position? My hands ache if the brakes lock too far from the bars. As a last resort, bars? Maybe more sweep would ease it off.

So you knew it had been posted multiple times already, yet proceeded to post it anyway? You're normally the first to shout "Repost!" rather than commenting on the video. What happened to you?

Then I apologize. He sounds like a fanny indeed.

I might be wrong, but you looked taller than 4'7" last time I saw you.

Return it direct to the owner hoping for a reward. £150k is too much. If it was a £150, I'd keep it. I don't know where the threshold between keeping and returning would lie. Probably around the £1,000 mark.

I doubt it's to do with publicity. I'd wager your site was only used as a honing of his skills. If they want to get good at hacking, they have to start small. Adding a tag is proof to their 1337 friends that they've done it. Gotta hack small websites like yours before they can take on Sony The fact he only left a tag and didn't screw stuff up for you kind of implies he's not in it for malice.

This. I've played on a fair variety of 24's too, and not a single one bunnyhops or spins or manuals as easy as a BMX. If you have a type of riding in mind, get the right tool for the job, otherwise you're just making things harder for yourself. Admittedly, if you want street trials, rather than street BMX - BMXy moves are easier on a 24 than trialsy moves on a BMX. Depends what riding appeals to you.
