  1. bikes looks shweet, liking the pictures, although actual pictures would be preferable...why not post in riding pictures instead as you're validated?
  2. Alex Dark

    Koxx

    same, i just really dislike the frame as a whole though...joined top and bottom tube, sq. profile tubes, stupid bb height
  3. dude, this isnt msn.... Back on topic, the t-pro is an awesome starter bike, you won't go far wrong with that
  4. seems your on your own there buddy... they're great beginner bikes, if a little short.....well worth £200 , id buy it if it wasn't the wheel size of beelzebub himself
  5. acs claws are fine for beginner riders, just do it uyp or loctite it in place..they're fine then
  6. tars awesome stuff...just dont put too much on otherwise you might make your brakes stick on... you'll have vastly improved bite and hold, and the wear life on your pads will be vastly decreased. Oh, and your brake will not, i repeat, will not work for shizz in the wet, due to the tar seeming to turn into an oily substance Just grind your rim and get some grind specific pads when you can be nothered...theres no real urgency to be honest
  7. two most probably..... id say a s tronger pedal kick is whats needed personally
  8. deng bikes ( echo, koxx , zoo, gu ) are the most popular in mod bikes now. The geo has shifted to shorter chain stays, longer wheelbases and higher bottom bracket height. Neatly all of the deng frames are extremely durable now, so you wont go wrong with one. Bikes ahve got a fair bit lighter, id say on average mods are around 1/2kg lighter than when you quite.....dengs are heavy, whereas comp bikes like montys and koxxs are considered light. The gu 08 is a lot longer than the levelboss so should be better for most pure trialsy things...depends whether you rode street or natural really.
  9. i really wouldnt bother with a ck...its just not worth it..my piggy lasted me a few months, even when my koxx forxxs snapped in half
  10. use mr muscle oven cleaner...have a look in trials chat for my guide on how to do it
  11. there's far more prep work involved in poliushing a frame rather than spraying it...its not just the cost of paint, the silver one has to be meticulously stripped and buffed then lacquered
  12. You have recieved a new feedback. Below are details concerning the new feedback. Type: Good Rating SummaryNice bloke, prompt posting, id trade with him again happily Given By: Alex Dark You were the: Seller Date: 1205920266
  13. looks okay...id take an angle grinder to the stubby bit of seat tube though..looks extremely strange
  14. looks shweet..couldnt tell it was an 04 though...looks way nicer than the silver ones ive seen
  15. Looks brilliant.....i agree about the bashring though, an oldskool burn one would look a bit better
  16. looks awesome...shame its one of they...stumpy wheeled bikes You coming to plymouth this saturday?
  17. thats only 2mm difference mate! Pretty much the same as the guy above's one

  19. because its supposedly more secure.....
  20. so far its: 25% magura up front, 58% maggie on back 51% disc up front , 12% disc on back 13% vee up front , 20% vee on back
  21. money boy's one was lovely to ride, i really liked it, they are prety luch frames and ride like a dream on the back wheel
  22. im stuck as well.....ive got an 04 zoo pitbull short, with an 85mm stem with 30* rise...im sure thats too short and too high but im really not sure, what would anyone suggest?
  23. that webiste is utter sh!t ... i made a better one in year 9 for crying out loud..sort it out!
