What rims are they? Try-all? They look sexy

Can anyone tell me what the Chris King Standard BMX hubshell and axle are made of? And can you upgrade them? (Sorry for thread-jacking :$ )

Would be man but i dont get my back wheel from Tarty until the 6th July Do you know if you have any plans for then or if you are working? (its a monday btw)

Yeah tarty still sell them They are like 1KG or more i think. But for them being strong i dont know about that either i know a couple of people who have snapped them at the steerer : /

Just found this video on youtube and i was like Theres some massive stuff in this (as usual ) LINKY Enjoy

Changed my order i now have the LGMs coming Even though they werent in the original poll Shows what you can find out if you ask

I remember reading on the heatsink website the best way to get them off is to put them in the oven for a little while on 150 Degrees to make them come loose out of their backings... Give that a go mate

I see what you mean mate Fair point

At 1:25 he did it on purpose! If he didnt then why would he get another one of those blonds to lay there if he didnt make the other jump? Was pretty good though

oooooooh it was going to be the Ice as my next frame but now it has competition

Yeah mate they will definitely fit your bike Yeah mate if you need any help or advice on how to fit things etc.. then ask me on MSN pennyfold@hotmail.co.uk Dont buy from selectbikes (unless it says 'in stock') otherwise you wont get it

Ive just looked the bike up on google and seen it does have the V-brake mounts. So the option I said in the other post about getting the 'V-daptors' would be a sensible thing to do along with getting some new pads and a lever (after contacting tarty and asking for advice). There are various things that you could change to make the bike ride better: Bars, stem, forks and tyres. In my opinion i think that best value for money for a better ride would be: (change the brakes to the 'V-daptors' and pads etc, do this before anything as the brakes are the most important thing) then you should change the bars: I suggest some riser bars - any of these; which ever take you fancy and stem: I suggest this one - Good price with a good rise and length as this would give a much better ride and doesnt cost as much as changing the forks (which can be done later. If you wish to change the forks aswell i would suggest these: Good strength and at a good price Hope this has helped

Very nice mate But as you said its just the Bars, stem and forks that are letting it down When you get your new ones make sure you put updated pics up... It will look soooo much better when you have them

If you have a V-brake on the front of your bike then you can get these: V-daptors These make it so your brake can be used with HS33 pads:HS33 Pads - A Variety You should consider whether you are using a Smooth wheel or grinded wheel, to choose what pads you are going to purchase. Ring Tartybikes (01772 323333) and ask them what pads would be the best to use with your set-up (Grinded/Smooth rim and the Use of Tar/No Tar). As you will still have a V-brake on the front theoretically; you could also purchase a new V-brake lever to give you a better lever pull and feel; I would suggest this lever to give a nice pull and feel as i would think many would agree: Avid SD7 Lever or you could also use this one Avid SD5 Lever As for a rear magura if you have 4-bolt mounts then you can purchase a magura and put it straight on. But if the frame has V-brake mounts on the rear also i would recommend that you do the same as the first option that I suggested I hope i have helped you mate P.S: If you did not know about Tartybikes then I would strongly advise you to buy from them; either ring them (01772 323333) or go to their website (www.tartybikes.co.uk), as they provide friendly, polite service (over phone obviously) with Super-fast delivery (normally next working day, if ordered before 4PM).

I think i will have to change my order to the LGMs even if they are a bit more expensive ill have to give tarty a ring tomorrow

Absolute beast! All of the riding in that video was huge And such a controlled style compliments his huge riding aswell

Looks really good IMO; reminds me of the Vario frame Also are they the Monty 231ti Kenny bars? They look too wide to be the 221ti bars

Looks very nice! Just get some Proper silver paint on that and some lacquer and that will look mint Nice one

Will do ma'friend I hope they will meet the hype that has been brought to them Cheers for the information mate but i dont know whether to change my order to the LGMs (my order isnt to come until the 5th of June as i am having my wheel built aswell) Can you advise me on whether i should change these? - Do the LGMs have better bite and hold in the dry than the CRMs? - Will they last for a long time on a medium grind?

Just wondering Stan, do you know the answer to the question(s) in the quote above this one? Thanks in advance

Hello mate Just wondering will the pads be avaliable from Tarty by the 5th of July roughly? as i can change my order also will they be the same price as the current CRM pads?

In the end i went for the New TNN pads for various reasons... - They were the most popular in the vote and had the best feedback - Tarty stock them and they will get delivered rapidly - The other places i could have brought the other pads both needed me to use paypal and when trying to link my card i fail and it locked it

Looks sick mate! proper like Have you cut the tread off of the rear tyre btw? it looks like it

At least it is built now matey... which is more than can be said for my bike Your bar height must be about 42" mines 37"with the old lower-rise echo team stem and V!Z Pro720 bars yeah just get a lower stem and put your echo forks on when you get them and that will ride and look a hell of a lot better oh and btw your rotor is on the wrong way

Very true and yeah they are fine to order from
