hello
i run the echo cnc cranks have had no problems with them, workin great!
also would recommend middle burn cranks! as they are light weight and last a long time i still have my old pair, i switch to echo so i could have front free wheel.

hello
when i was learning i found that this weather was gd to learn in as when i started i never used to run a grind and used standard pads so i got used to using a rubbish brake i was soon able to chain brake well which still helps today, also as most thing were slippy when wet i found that it was harder, oboviously, but it ment when i came to do it in the dry i found it easier so what ever the weather man just get out and ride, wet weather helps alot when learning!

hello
like the other i would say tighten up your clamps, rebleed, or buy a new booster? i bought the echo control booster and i didnt have any movement with my brake so i would recommend that, but it is quite big n heavy for a booster...

hello
it has come to the time where i need to buy new brake pad but im not sure what ones will work well on a lightly grinded rim? just wondering if any one had any ideas of whats brakes pads are the best to use for both natural and street riding?
cheers rob

hello
you can drill holes in the rims but its not half as effective as buyin the proper factory ones, if doing it yourself it just makes rims more weak, you could save ur self a couple of grams buy drilling yourself but the factory rims are usally lighter...
hopes helps

hello
im 16 and have been riding for about 2 years on and off.
i think that aslong and u want to ride you should ride!
my parents dont like me riding but they know that i enjoy it!

hello
i prefer natural, as the objects arent all square and etc so when u get used to everything being odd shapes when it comes to riding street i have learnt that some moves are easier and i can do bigger objects, but ride both! its nice to have a change every now n then!

hello
in the past i have found it helpful to watch videos and get tricks or techniques off them, n they have gone out n tried to learn them myself, but on smaller object then on videos of course!
i would say practise:
balance, in general do it on different hights, sloped walls and etc pretty much what ever you can find!
back wheel control get more confortable on the back wheel, the expand on to doing larger gaps, which then leads on to gaps to front wheel, some people dislikes these i am still learnin these but im am startin to get alright at them,
basically just keep riding!
