  1. 68 x 128 gigapipe truv bb worked fine for me...as did a 68x128 fsa platinum
  2. No problem dude, what we're all here for
  3. Bald tyres never really seem to be any better...simply as good at best. I run a bald try-all stiky front tyre ( evyer other knobble off ) and a Continental Der Kaiser ( black chilli, every other knobble removed ). Great combo....very grippy, reasonably light too. ( 1105gr, 640gr )
  4. they sure can...anything you want really,bearing in min dthe monty's i think are designed to be ran with cams on the outside of the drop-out. For example, my friend has an Echo control 07, Viz rear hub, mutiny spokes and an Echo 07 rear rim.
  5. Harder to get hubs....pre-built wheels are non-existent....harder to sell....cannot use standard pro2's / Kings ( although you can chat and mill down a poo2, or use a BMX king ) Not really that bad to be honest....135 horizontal is as good if not better in my humble opinion though.

    Aha, thought so knew it couldn't be 625
  7. Good shit, come out on Sunday with us
  8. Holy poop I want one so damned badly...
  9. Meh just go back, explain and they'll get a new one off a bike...then request one from Onza Must just be a manufacturing defect.
  10. Damned light, Andrei and Joe Seddon are both rocking them...well impressed so far.

    Too true...although the Boxx was 71.5, wheelbase was 1092 though Bugger off 625...has to be over 640 surely

    According to Biketrials.com : Wheelbase: 1085 mm Headtube angle: 71 degrees Chainstays: 375 mm BB Height: +55 mm

    The Boxx had a slacker head angle, longer wheelbase and longer stays....so the only common thing was the BB height. ( pkus the boxx didn't ride all that amazingly in my opinion anyway ) VERY short...my Coust is short at 378, no idea of the reach...at a guess probably 655 or so though as the one I went on felt quite cramped.
  14. There are snailcam "nubs" on the frame
  15. Nah they seem fine if you're smooth....if you've ever ran a try-all double wall and haven't flatspotted it, dented it badly or buckled it I reckon you'll be fine on a Singlewall. Once funds increase I want an Onza pro - Diamond.
  16. Great video....makes me want a slate II lots
  17. Rockman singlewall on Rockman BUB hub...front Onza pro Diamond / Trialtech double wall ( depending on how bashy you are ) with rockman BUB hub Plain gauge spokes, 3x front and rear and you're sorted

    Both the A1 and hifi ride like poop though....needs longer stays
  19. Siiiick, well up for that Adski
  20. Self-confessed Might as well save weight where you can though
  21. Yep..rides nicely too, improvement on the Kortz one Bigman's tyre is for sale, says it was a little too lightweight for him
  22. Would...but I'm 30 miles away... This weekend?
  23. Fair bit of weight difference... 797 against 633g LOTS of rotating mass there that could be dropped
  24. More spoke tension...maybe look into Wiring the spokes too Certainly works for Andrei....
  25. Sucks arse Can't go....
