Loved that man. Camera angle doesn't do that big sidehop in castle park justice
Was a sweet days ride, till the bike broke!
-
This is all awesome guys cheers. Will take me afew night so sift through that lot!
On a side note, anything with a really sorta 'feel good' vibe to it is also really welcome. Stuff that in terms of subject isn't too heavy or has an uplifting message
-
Really loving my hip hop at the moment, particularly chilled out stuff.
As a well known example J5 - Concrete schoolyard is the kinda vibe i'm after.
Already have a pretty large amount of J5, Hilltop and Sweatshop union
Anyone point me in the direction of some new beats?
Cheers all
Another example of what i'm liking

It is almost impossible to remove all flex, on any set-up there will still be a small amount of movement.
If the brake works then whats the issue? If your finding the brake performance isn't what you expect with one booster then there is a problem with brake setup. Bleed? pads hitting perfectly square? decent grind?

That riding spot is epic. Where are you from?

-

What are those grips like? I've been tempted for ages to get a set.
I've really liked them. They are savage though so gloves are a must - no matter how tough your hands are!
Im a big fan of thin grips and dont really like foam or bar tape so these are ideal. Just checked tarty though and they are currently out of stock
-
The Front wheel's rim tape is selotape, and the rear wheels is duct/gaffer tape

Let me know what you think. For those interested, weight is currently 9.2kg

Im not into all this weight saving yet but just an idea, would filling your innertubes with hydrogen or helium work rather than air?
Yes, but you would have to pump your tubes up far more often as the gas is thinner is escapes faster

I have one. Cant say i've noticed any difference at all but i will tell you why i bought one.
About 3months ago i was serving a customer at work and noticed he had one. Having already heard a little about them i was interested as to whether he rated it or not.
Turns out that 20yrs ago (chap was about 50) he had a major motorbike crash and his right leg was a right f**king mess. Had multiple operations and lots of physio to get him walking again. The strength in his leg is now similar to that of his left but he has NEVER been able to balance on that leg since the accident. He got hold of a PB band and within a day could balance un-aided on his right leg.
Now i know that sounds pretty freekin weird but it was enough for me to get one out of curiosity.

The bill is the main area ridden - is signposted all the way there. Big car park by a lighthouse.
Also on sundays the Quarry is inactive so its possible to get in and ride the huge cut blocks
