  1. thanks man. my dad got a big 3mm thick sheet from work. i have no idea how much it would cost or where to get it from.. wouldn't thought aluminium would cost that much. it took me: . 1 day to design it and roughly cut both of them . 1 night to file them down and all that . 1 night to drill holes, make spacers, polish and set up the brake so 3 days.. just about you could probably put one together in a whole day or two maybe. depends how good you are i suppose... lol could make some more.. sell them off for a tenner ?? caspa.
  2. thanks i made it with a hacksaw and a file. made a template, then traced it onto 3mm ali sheeting. aluminium is so soft you can make anything with it. caspa.
  3. i made a custom booster about a month ago its a 4 bolt made from 3mm ali i made 2 the same and layed them on top of each other and drilled 4 big holes in the arch of the top one looks aces. sorry about the quality. they're taken by my phone. comments please. caspa.
  4. best tip.. always put small parts in trays or a spray can tops. im always kicking them around my garage. loosing them and all that.
  5. 3 days.. zona zip. good bike to start on! welcome to the forum anyway. have a nice day.. caspa.
  6. i'd go with the echo team. but i did see a while ago, a revell mod frame. i loved it. like a mod but closer to a bmx.. thats my favorite. caspa.
  7. maybe you meant dmr or ddg ?? ddr's that dance thing at arcades ?? or a band...
  8. i was in france once. saw this girl on a road bike with bmx handlebars. looked silly! er.. does depend on how high your bb is. maybe there's a way of working it out. just try it ? i wouldn't though..
  9. ye vees all the way. i reckon it depends on how good you are at trials though.. you dont want to get a disk brake for £150 if you dont do any front wheel moves. when you can get a vee for nothing. (mostly 30-40) id say a mag for the rear though. i wouldnt trust a vee on the back.. caspa.
  10. i used a sanding disk when i did mine.. told my dad about grinding rims. he was like wtf and told me not to use a grinding disk otherwise it would destroy the rim. sanding disk made it rubbish. or you can go to a shop and they can sort it for you.. make it better. get a professional to do it ? caspa.
  11. i went to an indoor skatepark yesterday and i was manualing down slopes really easy. i can manual over a jump box, down it, then along the floor for a bit. before i was rubbish at them and in just one day ive improved quite a bit watching the bmxs do them helped as well. so.. go to a skatepark and practise on the jump boxes. 45 degrees ? or any slope at 45 degrees ish. caspa.
  12. when parts break on my bike i just steal them from my mums bike.. but i had the onza tuff guys on my old saracen x-ray they seemed ok and great value for money nothing wrong with them.. for money... get a job ? your 17 ? caspa.
  13. i dont like that either. i was about to do this 180 drop at the bus station today. done loads before.. and this kid was just staring at me like a tard. then i did it and hit me tentioner on the wall. had to go home after that EDIT: also when your dad drives over your bike when its in the drive
  14. i like all of the custom things on mine like all the bodges that i've done. it makes it unique. rather than a brand new bike with brand new bits on. also like the fact that my bikes the outcome of the x-ray i got in 04. i built it up to what it is today. new parts and all that. and all the custom stuff i've made for it ??? caspa.
  15. just take it to a shop.. it's only a fiver
  16. sorry didn't scroll down thanks mate.
  17. that says skateboarders only must be the other one then ?????? thanks anyway
  18. bump ? need to know by sunday....
  19. i remember when my mate was getting a t-bird i never saw anything like that. thats when i had me rubbish £100 full sus bike then i 'found' a set of maguras behind this chippy in a bag got a saracen x-ray for x-mas in 04... i wanted to turn it into a jump style bike. then i swapped a sus fork for my mates brothers trials crank started from there.. this post really makes no sence
  20. doesnt anyone else get anoyed at traffic ?? thats the worst i reckon.. waiting for about 5 minutes for the cars to go past. maybe its because i live on a main road.. hate waiting. its rubbish
  21. scarf love the bike. the pics are aces. pashley forks ?
  22. i'm off to skegness skatepark this sunday with a mate. (hes got an orange hitman) i've never been.. could anyone tell me what its like ? just wondering to take my bike or not it'll be pointless if i'm not allowed in... thankyou ? caspa.
