  1. blame my clumsy fingers ahhh ok well sure we've all learnt something here.....it doesn't really matter either way
  2. true, just though id post up a fairly hd setup...as Im running echo cnc'd and a fsa bb plus, the rockman is, lets be honest, going to be far weaker than the king hub
  3. FSA platinum dh i say.....or a truvativ gigapipe, depends if you run FFW setup or not .... cant really go wrong with either, just a pain having to use a special fitting tool with the truv one
  4. I love front freewheel myself.... and is that actually true forteh? thought it was about 100g+ weight difference... EDIT: thought id check out my own setup.... Echo 135mm fixed 6speed : 256g + 181g = 437g against.... Chris king single speed 332g + (As Tarty dont weigh the sprockets, I had to rely on Google) 80g~ surly 18t fixed sprocket = 442g Maybe a shorter bb would decrease the weight of the freehub setup slightly as well? Basically they're just about equal...on my setup at least...which kind of surprised me if I'm honest
  5. seriously? I've done about 15 light grinds on one of those onza rims second hand is it? haha lil bit cruel meh, tis his choice at the end of the day? keep with what you know...if it works for you, all's good
  6. nor did i....assumed beacuse the bird was a bmxer, that was the link
  7. took me an hour for a pair of cranks
  8. bars are effin horrid just look sooo low I quite like burns on a mod...at least it looks kinda different, just whack one of those bmx style tensiles on there and you're away
  9. i heard ozonys frames are a lot stronger?
  10. Where am i on that list?! should be.. Alex Dark= smoothest rider ever, and always fixes my sh!t heap
  11. yup, think its the 3/32 one....try www.supercycles.co.uk
  12. Alex Dark

    Pythong

    White...red parts
  13. 22tis are very short mods as well....which wont help, maybe something pythong length would be more suited?
  14. Like everyone else has said, grind it till it dies, then get a new one
  15. like muel says....longest best quality bolts you can get to go in there
  16. email dmr bikes? or maybe crc?
  17. 24 ymiab rims? dunno...only ones i could think of that haven't been mentioned
  18. seems like they d be pretty effective, good find
  19. spoke tension, quality, rim width, section, sidewall , spoke thickness etc and width between flanges will all make for stronger wheel, but nothing can really stop dents, only thing is tyres and/or technique
  20. sounds like the rotor needs decontamintaing.....and some new pads if all else fails
  21. i agree...really like the way deng has gone...for once...all he needs to do now is sort out his freehubs, freewheels, low rise bars and denguras
  22. HS11s = larger piston'd, longer bladed hs33s with a composite lever HS33s = same slaves and lines as the hs11, but with an aluminium blade, TPA , smaller master piston , shorter blade ( although longer aftermarket blades can be bought seperately) Echo brake = dengura = Ok.....you might be lucky and get a non-leaky one, basically a tarted up 05 magura, cncd blade , pistons and lever body. same piston as standard, but with a longer blade Best brake to get by a long shot is an 04 magura with an rb designs lever....but as these are as rare as rocking horse sh!t, an 05 with a "deng" lever blade, or magura 4 finger blade will do the job just as well due to the extra leverage Any more questions...just ask
