If the axle is huge, it's going to be 14mm, which is the standard for BMX wheels.
Well you can either drill yours out to 14mm, or try and get to a bmx shop and pick some 14mm ones up. If you go to the shop in person you can always bring the wheel nut so you can compare the sizes.
Return the 10mm ones, or keep them for another bike maybe

eat bananas, the fruit kind... not the ones you normally eat Potasssium helps. Buy a wrist rest and a powerball and get training
Hmm been eating more bananas of late, and I take multivitamins every day.
A powerball, I haven't heard that name for years.
Haha, neither yours, hope you're doing well

I have a pretty good keyboard, not an ergonomic layout but very good switches. My mouse is ergonomic too, one of these Logitech ones.
Potassium, powerball, and finding a more ergonomic solution for my computer setup... got it

First time I heard of that. If it's more expensive though, I would just use normal tubes, so you can get more of them lol
I daresay tyre choice and pressure would have a bigger effect on bounce, if that's your main goal.

That's a hefty price. Wonder who the intended market is for that.
Having that as a signature version and a more hmm approachable version available too might be nice.
Wonder why they went for carbon as well. Trials bikes are expensive, carbon bikes are expensive... Carbon trials bikes..? Lol

Sup TF,
Arm pump is a pretty common thing in bike riding, I feel.
Well, these days I am finding myself often getting something akin to arm pump, but... I don't have a bike at all.
Seems to be happening because I'm typing all day.
Anyway, I wondered if any of you guys had exercises or stretches you've done that helped you get past arm pump.
Asking in chit-chat because I don't need any bike-related advice lol

Wow, didn't know our Tom is a Dad, also congrats to Sci haha
That line about freedom is the truest thing, dang. You might get an hour of free time in a whole day, if you're lucky lol.
Well, when they're tiny they sleep a lot so there's a bit of a chance to get stuff done then lol

Sup TF, long time no see and all that
One of these days I'll buy a new bike.
I used to always ride 24 even for regular old MTB. We're talking 2010 era.
I'd probably get a DJ type bike, and I'll likely use it for street rather than DJ (haven't seen any jumps here).
Seems like all the DJ bikes for sale these days are 26 though
I have this memory of 26in bikes being not that easy to whip around, but... that was like 15 years ago. I wonder if geos have changed to the point where a 26 now is comparable to a 24 back then.
I'd like to think I could 180 or 360 this new bike lol.
I was also thinking of a 24" bmx, but that's rigid and so a little less versatile.
What think, TF? Are 26in DJ bikes easy to throw around now?
Edit: I doubt I could try a bike out, DJ is not popular in Korea, they're hen's teeth on second hand sites here, and very few if any shops stock them, I've certainly never seen one in a shop

It's really interesting seeing people who aren't riders go through the fight we all know, but many of them might be undergoing for the first time:
Man, I wish I knew how other people get through it. This was the number one thing that stopped me from being a remotely good rider. Psyched myself out of so many things :|

Snow is bullshit.
Well, actually it's pretty fun to play with, and it does look nice, but aside from that, snow sucks.
Also the mud flap on my electric scooter snapped. This was not a genuine part but still, disappointed.
These two complaints are related - now I have mud up my trouser legs. God damn snow.

Marmite in general, but particularly why it doesn’t spread properly. When I make it for others (you know, the deviants who eat Marmite) I end up massacring the bread. Crunchy peanut butter isn’t any better.
Never, ever try to spread actual butter on bread.

On the topic of jobs, I managed to get a job as a front end developer for a blockchain company.
Super grateful for it, it pulled me out of a pickle for sure, haha. Also now I get to sit in a warm office messing around with React and JavaScript instead of twiddling my thumbs or trying to get kids to speak English.

Nonsense, what's not to love about either dragging the dusty box out of the loft and making a mess, or having the real tree shed needles all over the place?

More on topic: something that baffles me every time I see them at the supermarket are the magazines that seem to pretend soaps are real life. It's just insane.
Related to this, people getting really fixated on particular celebrities and what they're doing or wearing. People also get that way with football teams, which is pretty weird too.
