If you sent a warranty-registering-postcard to them with your name, hub s/n and so on it`s all you need to deal with them. And of course hub must be less than 5 y.o.
-
Which year this BB7 is? Sure about 560g? Avid claims it`s a bit lighter as far as I remember
Good luck on new machine. And more movies like last Katowice trip
Cheers

Who is that guy on mod bike?..that style is awesome..

Amazing
looking forward to seeing proper vid -
I`ve been using pancakes some time ago. Just a regular pedals, same shit as most of similiar priced ones. Without any hardcore riding bearings cracked some day. No reccomendation from my side.

DunCon is polish brand which used to make street/dirt frames, then enduro/freeride full suspension frames (and parts for this types of bikes) and now they`ve made a prototype of trials mod frame, but I`m not informed what the exact geo and weight is, maybe Rafal knows a bit more
-
Lovely machine, I`m really impressed by this frames nowadays. Looking forwrad for seeing some clips on it!
BTW: is it possible to put tensioners outside the frame? Or just use bolts only, without tensioners? Have You tried it Bigman? I`m really curious how it will work
-
I`m still drunk after previous night party, so I decided to calculate how many EP`s I`ll have after assembling new hub instead of FFW. Suprisingly I found enough power to create a summary of effective EP`s according to declared engagment points and gear ration. Furthermore, I calculeted how long is route of crank beetwen each EP. It`s not a brilliance or smartness, but just a few minutes of typeing it into excel. I hope that at least one of you will find it useful ;p
cheers

Awesome !
I like Your riding, its greatTip: logged users are getting refreshed folders faster - so make an account on tv.isg.si and You will see the vid. In other case You`ll have to wait for a some time (sometimes it`s more than a day
) -
btw: guy on xtp (not Kumor of course) and guy on Zoo! is same man
Same as inur - First wawa vs katowice made huge impression, second one not, it doesnt transfer atmosphere of whole 'event'
-
Got BT adaptors for magura pads (but its probably worthless to talk about them), got frame which seems to be suprisingly good and at last got BT front hub - red one, but its the same as white on ur picture. Extra light (170 w/o funbolts) and rly nice. Wheel turns very smoothly and axle seems to be strong enough - i`m quite heavy person and i`m learning front moves at the mo and it is still in one piece
-
Exactly what mine do, they hold well when the wheels turning in one direction but dont hold when its turning the other way.
Same situation after grinding the rim? B`cause i grinded mine and it now holds in both directions, no cons of them now
-
Pads: Ali C's JoyPads
Time used: 2 months
Rim used: TryAll
Grind: Sharp fresh grind
Ceramic: No
Brake used: Sram 7.0+Avid levers+XTR brakeset
What is your opinion of a working brake: Extremly solid
Other pads used: CRM`s
How do they compare to previous pads you have used: Much better
Review: after fitting them in, on not grinded rim they worked extremly loudly and kept well, but only in fornt direction. After grinding rim they became a bit more silent (but however still loudly...) and held solid. They have not worn out at all! Good choice for everyone - they work same in dirt conditions, no matter if it`s raining or not. According to price it`s probably best choice i`ve ever made
-
Got monty for about 6 months, it skipped twice one day, but during normal ride, not when i was jumping etc. Loud and reliable for me, much cheaper than ENO or TryAll. Think also about tensile - its huge advantage its fully rebuildable construction. But my personal advice is go for hope or king ;p
-
Got bb7, seen bb5. Excluding adjustability the pads in bb7 are twice bigger than in bb5, and there are some equivalents of them, ie. ones produced by jagwire.
Suprisingly bb7 is 4 grams lighter than bb5
I got bb7 at 185 rotor, it`s worth cash i payed for it. With bike I weight about 100 kilos, and it never failed to block the wheel
-
Rockwalk - Leech was doing it in his training movie and it was called this way
-
Simple, so nice. And frame which rides sweet ;p
-
Monty. No skips since i bought it. Didnt have a tensile, but monty is so comfy and reliable
-
Taking into account the fact, that actually i`m so impressed by natural vid and pros I liked vid v.much. Moves looks soft and chilled.
And as usual - would You mind giving me a title of the song? Thanks
-
Rly outstanding vid! I enjoyed it a lot! Imo You got smooth style, and everything You do looks very chilled.
Could You give me the name of first song (before gorillaz, it`s played for a while and then cutted)? I`ll be thankful
-
Friend of mine says, that if i`m not sure about smth, it`s obvious i wont do that. Just stop thinking, start riding. You dont have to be master in rail gapping to do that trick. And remeber, that crashes make You more cinfident (excluding big ones)
-
Anyway, Maxxis developed Hansventure as a trials tyre... so imho we could send them thousands of mails, and it`ll be still pointless
-
having it for one week, starting to get used to after riding short echo. Feels great, both on back wheel and on two of them. IMHO mid bb rise is smth brilliant
-
There is no bigger problems with removing wheel from frame with vert dropouts and no chains tensioner - i`d say it`s more comf than with mech changer
And 22:18 will fit with 385 (i`m sure, tested) and i think it will also work on 375
btw: have You thought what happen when You decide to change gear ratio?

How do you find rear Sticky Light? Compare it to regular Sticky or some Conti kevlar ones.
