  2. why doesnt everyone just meet up at a certain spot. were not comin till like 12 or 1ish so ill add you on msn and get your phone number or whatever so we can ring you to find out where you are.
  3. might do mate, your riding clee tommorrow arent you?
  4. me and sam B are goin through on tuesday aswell
  5. your wheel moving will be down to one side of the droupouts being bent slightly but i dont know about the hub you cant really fix it properly without bending it back but the bend will be tiny
  6. ive added you on msn about the bike.

    are you jamie guilliats mate?

  7. i wanted one of those paces so bad back in the day is it like an rc250 or something like that
  8. wheres the casual drop of the phonebox then ring the sex line photo?
  9. my first frame/bike was an onza t-rex full bike jobby one of the old shape one's it was silver with blue flames. yeeeeeee now i have a koxx
  10. i dont understand what you mean? do you mean there is a gap between the very bottom of the headset and the part which sits in the headset.? if it is then you should have a bit of the headset thats similar size to headset spacer but with slightly angled inner bit (it is the very last part you put in at the bottom) this needs tapping down onto the forks with a block of wood and a hammer and it should hammer all the way till it touches the fork crown ? hope this helps
  11. a bmx related injury. got knocked out for like 10 mins minor skull fracture heavy concussion broken wrist broken knuckle and finger bit right through my lip black eye a nice stay in hospital and i had my helmet on and honestly the worst thing was biting through lip that hurt more than any thing i didnt even realise id broke my wrist when i was sat in the hospital and i kept looking and it and saying i think thats broken then id forget (beacuase of the concussion) and look at it again about 10 mins later and say it again. lol i always ride with my helmet on now considering i fractured my skull with it on who knows what would have happened with out it
  12. 4 spokes doesnt make alot of difference to be honest in neither weight nor strength but due to wheel ineria (i think weight incerases as the wheel spins) so your probable better of with a 32h. the only time 4 more spokes would help is if your really rogue with your landings
  13. when you say half the spokes are sticking out do you mean like 1 side of the wheels spokes like left or right or one halfs as in at the top they do but not at the bottom??? (i know wheels dont have a top or bottom but you know what i mean) (and do you mean the spokes are stciking out but the nipples are still tight to the rim or the spokes are stciking out and the nipples are not tight to the rim?) if it is either of the 2 at the top and the nipples are tight to the rim all you need to do is undo all the nipples till you can see like the last part of the spoke threads then tighten each nipple a couple of turns at a time (say start with 3 turns) and work your way round the rim on each pass round do less number of turns as long as you turn each one the same the wheel should be true and the spokes should be right. (**THATS IF ALL THE SPOKES ARE THE SAME LENGTH AND ITS LACED UP CORRECT**) if that doesnt work its laced up wrong or some/all thge spokes are the wrong size (****MAKE SURE THE SPOKES FACE AWAY FROM YOU IF THEY SNAP IT HURTS****)
  14. spend as much as you can afford on the hub you will have more confidence if you know that you can rely on your wheel not to slip or whatever
  15. at the min am using a tryall rim with a hope mono hub, and compared to what i had before its alot better its smooth a reasonable number of engegement points and it hasnt slipped once yet and the build is good but that depends on where its bought from not what parts are used. oh and before i just had an onza full-fat with an onza hub (i think it was called a full fat??)
  16. did you say that you had made that frame yourself? as it does look really good
