Hello Guys, My bike has seen better times to be perfectly honest and i'm looking to replace some broken bits. 1. My BB is bent to the extent of not being able to screw it in fully. 2. I have 7 spokes missing in my rear wheel and the rim is egged.. 3. My freewheel has lots of missing pools (I think thats the correct lingo), Skips alot e.t.c. I don't think they're is much I can do about the bottom bracket, so I'm just after your opinions on which one to go for, I'm not after something incredibly expensive, light and colorful... I just want it to be smooth as possible and have a longer life span than my Echo internal. As for my Wheel, I'm unsure about this one... Is it advisable for my to 'respoke' my wheel? I've heard about this weakening the rim, and would it even be able to be trued because of the bend/egg of the rim? My freewheel is much like the Bottom bracket, I'm just after your opinions for something reliable and affordable. Charlie

Well, to use trials wise.. Probably not, considering it's £20 - It's probably fooked and will take lots of time and money getting it to even ridable.. Although, I am assuming, If it's in good condition - Fair play to you mate. Go for it. x

Hey. I love graffiti. I class graffiti as art. Not the scribble that the chavs do. Has anyone been to Leake Street and seen The Cans Exhibiton?

I found that asking people how to do it was confusing me. I think that it is best to just watch other riders. Watch their body. Basically its all about moving your arse. If you keep practasing you'll get it.

Hey. I wouldnt't go for those Echo cranks. I've seen loads of deng cranks with problems. Go for some monty or Koxx cranks. The real trials manufacturers.
