Because they're cheaper mabye? Can't beat a Profile IMO (<---- IMO that is)
-
White Industries suck, Cringle's was good engagement but slipped all the time. Profile's the ONLY way to go IMO.
-
Something with spacing being different I think and the dropout's werent filled in like on Joe's so they were cracking. Joe's will be fine though.
-
I'm guessing it'd be alright Joseph. Make sure with Tarty or someone who know's more than your average person, but my guess is it'd be fine. You need a proper hub anyway :ermm:

Pads: Cousts
Time used: About 2 weeks
Rim used: Ronnie
Grind: Yes
Ceraminc: No
Brake used: Magura
What is your opinion of a working brake: Something that locks on and holds perfectly. Although i like a little bit of modulation.
How do they compare to previous pads you have used: Extremely good
Review: Never thought I'd use anything other than CRM's, but thought I'd give Coust's a blast. Got them and rode for about 5 minutes and they had an immense sound and were about as good as my Plazzies. Nowaday's it's perfect always there when you need it! Best pad's I've had!

Just get the Monty's! Brilliant cranks, I would NEVER use anything else!
-
Can't beat Monty cranks, mine are 2 years old now, no problem's what so ever and the 158mm length is perfect :sleeping:

I tell you what Mark. How about we have a little wager. I've only just heard about this deal. It could of been in the works for a while.
£50 says hes riding something with mongoose on it at the bike show Mark?
No need to get like that... he were just pointing out that there may not have been enough time to get a frame sorted in 2 weeks!
-
Well, unless they can knock up a proto bike in two weeks, I'm guessing it'll be a de-stickered standard production frame from another company?
That is assuming this isn't a load of crap...
Just what I were about to say... Let's hope they make decent frames unlike Diamondback and that :sleeping:
-
Ahhh poo! Why didn't I just order everything from Alans... my wheel came straight away off them, it's sat on the bike now waiting for the rest of the stuff before I ride it!
-
He just said he got it from a Mongoose e.mail!! :sleeping:
-
And here is what it looks like at the moment
and this is how it will look when a bit more monies comes my way
That's looking nice mate! Gonna look mint! Had mine resprayed, got my alloys on, I'd put pics up but I'm putting (VERY MILD) sideskirt's on Monday and mabye lower it and put my exhuast on, all depends on how time goes. I'll get pics then :sleeping:

Well when I posted the topic it was too late and I just tried now and they're closed for easter :sleeping: Ah well, let's pray it turns up today.

So do we know if it's going to be a Trials frame or what? I'm guessing it'll be abit trialsy but more street? Seem's abit of a strange move, but meh.

Hey,
Are Winstanleys BMX Shop unreliable? I ordered a Lever and Tyre on Saturday, so should have been posted off Monday and I STILL haven't recieved it. Just though it would have been here by now :lol: Just want to know wether it's worth e.mailing them or if they're usually like this...
Cheers

My car Has a 4-2-1, 2 inch Tubular Exhaust manifold, 2 inch stright through Exhaust system, and a 3 inch chrome tail pipe.
That's all well and good, but it's not always best to have a straight through system if you want performance from the exhaust. A proper, good company won't necessarily make it straight through for performance, there are much better ways. Don't ask me all the ins and outs of it, because that's about all i know lol.

Hey,
Can I pick up a decentish rear wheel (chromed as I'm told that's best for braking) for £50?
Also what lever do you suggest? I have a Diatech Gold Finger, but surely a longer lever blade will be better?
What brake pads? My brakes shockingly shit since I got rid of my Odyssey Hazard Lite rim :P
And finally, where's the best shop's to get this stuff from? Online please :)
Thanks in advance!
EDIT:
BONGORear brake :Dirty harry lever, as above.
Odyssey evolver brake, as above.
Dragonfly gemini top cable. Sprayed with wd40 and worked in as much as possible.
Twin lower cables, both odyssey slic cables. Lubed as with the front brake.
Chrome rims cleaned with muc off and never touched with anthing except the brake pads, which are all plaz flies.
Ooops, you seem to have answered it there. But what shop's do you suggest? And which wheel can i pick up for £50 that will be decentish?
-
Alright thanks. Didn't realise. Cheers to everyone so far anyway :P
-
Also what are the best online shops? I only know of Winstanley's.
And does this look any good? Sorry, I really don't know my onions when it comes to BMX :">
-
I know there's alot of topics about this lately but I'm considering messing about on the bmx again. I'm not really sure what components are good so thought I'd ask you guys.
1) What wheel? I had an Odyssey Hazard Lite rim and stupidly got rid of it, put another rim on and my brake was instantly shit :P So what would you suggest? No more than £50 if possible... I were looking at this? Preferably black please, but I'm open to options.
2) Brake pads? What do you suggest?
And finally. Levers. I've got a Diatech Gold Finger, but as it's so short just wondered if a longer lever's gonna improve my brake? It's SHOCKINGLY shit at the moment!
Cheers in advance :P
