68mm or 73mm ,you'll just need a spacer with the 73mm . get the widest bb you can if your going to run a wide rim like a try-all or echo and a magura brake as there won't be enough clearance between the crank arm and the brake piston .if there still isn't enough clearance take a few mm of the brake pad material . steve
bigez_91 if you use the search and try the same question in a few different combinations your never go wrong i ride a probably half a hour most days around 10pm in the town centre ,best time of the day as no ones about to have a go at me and no one laughs when i fall off steve

i wouldn't be suprised if the total is over £1,500 , i built my bike up from a sarecen to its current state and i have replaced loads of bust parts on the way . steve
i am 18 years of age ,5'10/11 and i ride a stock (zoo! pitbull 06) a think i'll be getting a mod soon i think ,so this post might be wrong in the future. steve
i would recommend single speed as there easyer to maintain, lighter and i would say smoother running. only downside is that getting away from chav scum that want to steal my bike isn't fun as i can only pedal so fast before you have to coast along,not fun steve
i ride stock and im currently running 18:16 as i have a front freewheel, before i've run 15:13 ,15:12 ,20:17 and 20:16.i think im going to try 18:15 soon and see how it goes . steve

5ft ,i dont plan on much higher .i want to practise going up stuff instead of down ,anyone can jump of stuff and high drops aren't my cup of tea. steve
this is my zoo! pitbull 06,painted about 3 months ago which'll explain the scratches and missing paint.all comments welcome undefined undefined undefined undefined undefined i'd like to thank ogre for the guide to uploading steve
i have the same prob as you paulbell123 ,i cant do them then i nail it after a few attemps . my technique may be crap and not very well explained but it works for me i roll up the obsticle till im about 5ft away with my bad foot forwards ; then i start to pedal smoothly but firmly with my torso low and back whilst lifting the front wheel. as my good foot comes forward i then push hard down on my good foot whilst springing up to a standing position followed by sucking up my arms and legs pulling the bike with me ,once i get as high as i need to i then plant the back wheel down and straighten my arms letting my front land too the end it works for me .just practise and you'll get it nailed soon paul steve
i have the same problem , for me its the crank arm hitting the magura piston if this is the problem just setup up the brakes better ,i take a couple of mm of the pads so i can get more clearance check the clearance mate,steve
gutted i broke my wrist in the summer and that was hell ,it was even worse after i fell in the canal my arm seemed to be hosting its own brand new micro climate ,hope it don't happen to you ,it was very smelly steve
