  1. I dont mind taiwanese copy cat companies if its going to make life cheaper but that seems a massive price for something made by a 5year old taiwanese girl and a computer. That just seems a complete rip off, prob covering all the costs deng had to pay for steeling maguras design
  2. i hate high bb frames, possibly because ive never had chance to get used to one, but from the short go's ive had on others id stick to a low bb all the time
  3. feeney is going to be hard to beat, this is an entry he did for a kurb comp on another forum http://www.supload.com/vid/i_hate_curbs/271936219/wmv/
  4. With the mono just stretch the springs slightly and take the grease out. Theyre good hubs, mine never slipped until the rachet ring started wearing. Id run the mono till it starts to slip then upgrade to the pro2
  5. i think its got a normal press fit headset. Your echo headest should be fine, remember headsets have to be hammered or pressed in with the correct tool, they dont just slide in. The hammer method works fine, just protect the headset with a block of wood
  6. You cant really stretch the springs on the pro2's as they're leaf springs, Its a good thing to do on the mono hubs i found. As for the pro2 just clean all the grease out and put a few dabs of oil where the pawls and springs are seated, but try not to get any oil on the bearing. This will make it louder and even less likely to skip. I also got some new bolts with 8mm allen key heads as the 6mm ones it comes with are pretty shallow and easy to round off.
  7. they are real fun. I just got a cheap chinease one but its pretty quick with the baffles taken out the exhaust. Its got s&m slam smalls on too.

    Is It Just Me?

    you've got a heavy bike
  10. was good, looked like pretty good sections. I wish you'd host your stuff on google vid though
  11. my mate could almost whip hop his ashton et when he had it but it broke nd he gave up
  12. they'll be alright but you'll have to run them pretty hard to avoid pinches. that the same with any light tire.I used to think getin a heavy maxxis would make my bike ride crap but you dont notice it on there. theyre so much better than anythin else ive used. bein able to run them soft makes balencing and hoping so much easier
  13. sign this so you can take your bike with you for free http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/Cycles-on-Trains/
  14. i like the fact its sayin trials isnt vandalism etc. good luck with the trials park, i wish we had a local newspaper that safe
  15. they do tend to crack after a while but it takes a pretty long time usualy my mate had a 3rd hand, was 2 years old when it cracked. Can be shadily bodged in the short term by sandwidging the crack with 2 plates. pretty ghetto but did work (was on his back brake nd everythin)
  16. im so glad i dont live in notts, for f*cks sake breakin in to the house almost next door.
  17. the woodstock wont be too short if your doing flowing streety stuff with spins rather than purely frnt touches nd sidehops
  18. both are good for the money. If your doing streety stuff or a quite small go for the woodstock. If your mainly riding natural t rex it up
  19. uk24, otherwise wait for new ashtons to come out
  20. some of the pro2's did crack however they got sorted on warrenty. As for skipping ive never heard of that being a problem and mine has never done it in the 3months ive had it
  21. Do people actually go out with tape measures and measure everything they do.
