yeh, mats is damn solid...you cant feel the rim flexing away from the hub at all...just get a decent 3+ x build with some decent spokes with good tension and you'll be fine
i really dont see the point of cnc backings....ive never used a brake with cnc backings that feels significantly better thsn plsccy backings...its just not worth it
i dunno...i mean bmxers do it....the only real obstruction would be the lack of a mech hanger ( on stock ) and the direction of the freewheel...i came to the conclusiona while back that it wouldnt work...but if it does ill have a go with it probably
get the bike upside down...get a section of old handlebar etc, ram it down the forks ( from front wheel towards stem direction ) now twat that with a hammer...it should push the star nut out enough to grab the offending bolt with some molegrips
as strange as muels post is....i totally agree; rock n rooll cycles sound so amature......get a decent name to go with the updated site, new bikes and company image maybe.... hog cycles....i dunno..thats nearly as lame, but you know what i mean You could just sell it as onza bikes.....
the most common ratios are normally 22:18 and 18:16.... ( burns etc and freewheel / singlespeed kit ) or ( Front freewheel and singlespeed kit / fixed hub )
its awesome that older riders are starting again...i just met a bloke in college and he's started trials again on a mission prodigy and he's thirty.... i say good on you
2 punctures in a week isnt that much to be homnest....just sort your self out with decent tyres, tubes etc...check the inside of the rim /trye for things that might puncture the tube ( eg thorns, spokes, rough metal ) and you'll be fine
i erckon fair play to him....he's done a good job of designing some cool looking parts....okay so they're hardly trend-stting or innovative...but theres not much that is anymore
