I think the forum would be more shocked if he posted a photo of it, then waited for the "don't cut it" comments and then posted a picture of whatever it was still in one piece.

Jesus man, how many more can I give Also BCN BCN BCN!

Agreed, Fair play I am a bigger buy but I haven't had spokes go like this before. My Sapim ones lasted ages and if I broke a spoke I would just swap and carry on. This set of Halo's just seem against me. Also agreed on Flipp's point about you're only going to hear from the negative issues as everyone else has just put a Hope on their bike and forgotten about it. It did just seem that myself, @Dman and a couple of others (I remember Carthy mentioned his bearing cracked on his first Evo model hubs) seemed to get some teething issues. I think its safe to say we didn't get put off by them though you can't beat Hopes service and warranty and when they get it right its right.

I forgot about that, pure fear isn't the best feeling. When end you busting out the next video teaser?!? Hmmmmm............ Today? Tomorrow? Next week? Today?

Looking real good. Love the top tubes following the whole frame down to the dropouts. What design did you go for around the bb yoke?
-
I am on ios but really cool what you have done. Sorry to hear about your health problems.

Road this afternoon for a short period of time, my first drama being that I fixed Saturdays puncture and had a total blonde moment of putting 30psi into my tyre thinking it was 40 so the rails I will be going back to. Shortly after scaring the bloke it started to rain so called it a night. I had Mr Carl Hopps with me this evening

Myself and Dman was 100% committed which was a shame when it fell through :/ Will give you a shout when we are going to be over and hopefully you are free for a ride one day. Hope you are enjoying the bad editing of my mini edits man!

Matteo has an last min exam for September that he is working hard to pass now so I think we will be going later in the year or early next year. Just as soon as we find out he is free. Also now Shub can't make October/November with him being homeless and travelling around.

It's the perfect tool for the job in my case and many others, some of the old school guys on the forum have tried and moved back to 48e. Just don't make the mistake I did and go for Halo spokes, every time I replace one I snap another.

I ran a Hope pro 2 EVO from when they first came out and had endless issues with it, ended up getting that changed and moving onto my 2nd Evo this one was better but still had a fault where the bearings would suddenly crack inside the hub body. I went into Hope 3 times for this until I finally got a new hub and they tested my old one, turning out to be the hub shell itself being to tight for the bearings causing them to crack. That one was a little better until 3 of 4 pawls snapped on me in a move and again back to Hope and that turned out to be the wrong pawls in the hub itself (which also happened to another friend weeks later). I now have the pro 4 Evo which seems to be pretty good so far I am not sure how long I have had this one I think its 8 months now. I would go for the pro 4 model.

Top banana Jason, watched it again. I like your reaction to falling in the garden lol.
-
Thanks I'm sure I suited steel more.

I need to start using a better editor very shortly. If I play the file direct from the camera onto my laptop no flashes, once saved onto my laptop again no flashes. When I edit the file and play (before publishing/saving) no flashes, then when its published/saved I end up with these? I can live with them if the sound didn't struggle so much in the wind. Both together suck. Luckily it's not really made to be to exciting so all is well. Also you should go buy TMS stuff.
-
I really really like this, it made me want to go ride which I did yesterday. Watched again tonight it's still as good which is a credit. To put a negative in all this positive I have to say these need to be more often. Hopefully will bump into you on a ride one day
-
Sorry Nicon the above was just quickly filmed before meeting Carl Hopps for a ride. I put the camera away after he had turned up #social
-
Will do fam, I have Part 5 planned but then hopefully I'll have some kind of interaction with a friend maybe so I can do a bit of a session with someone else. Maybe its my turn to (badly ,raw) film and edit Karl.
-
Thank you, I love gaps to fronts without the brake, I have added a couple in the videos SOLO PT3 that has one, PT4 also has a small ish one added. I have some ideas for PT5 and a location to go ride so should have more front wheel things for Nicon, I am actually excited to be called out on that it's had my mind racing for lines. Pt4 here, this ones dedicated to the pin found in my back tyre and the slow puncture that followed, I carried the trackpump around with me which sucked! (Uploaded to UDTV!)
-
G winding everyone up haha.
-
I'll try make up for it with more front wheel stuff next ride. I'm hoping to go ride again this week depending on how work goes.
-
Why? Also most likely I've no interest in spins and endos sorry I'm a happy boring person
-
I've basically filmed enough little jibs this afternoon for a part 4 so should have something when I'm back at my laptop Sunday night
-
I know where you are coming from, I don't often watch anything on Insta if I can help it but do on Facebook. I think that is mainly I use insta on my phone and FB on my laptop though.
