  1. Really liked that video. Very nice technique of riding, also very smooth. And you have some awesome balance!
  2. I think the frame is the only bit that looks okay.
  3. Haven't seen that before. That's the ..second/third advert he's done? Very big riding, liked it alot
  4. Ohh I see what you're saying there. I would give that a try but this disc I think is a little f**ked on parts anyway where i've bashed it on walls. I think i'm going to buy a new rotor and those downhill pads. Can someone recommend a rotor please? Has to be 180mm ofc.
  5. Sometimes I listen to some decent DnB before I go out for a ride Seriously though, I stick on some High Contrast, it relaxes me and I think It makes me actually ride a littler better.
  6. Okay Alex. So is there any need of buying a new one? I've tried straightening this one out once or twice. Just by taking it off, putting it down on a flat surface with a plank of wood on top and then jumping up and down on it
  7. Nice looking bike mate, and looking at that last picture I just realised who you are. You're the pick-up drop off guy on youtube! woop woop
  8. Hey there mate , firstly, welcome to the forum, have a read of the stickies to try and get yourself through the validation process quicker And secondly, nice bike , really like the look of that
  9. REALLY enjoyable to watch. Loved the intro, thought it was very inventive and after the first minute or so I knew it was going to be an excellent video.

    Excellent video, really like your riding style. Pulled off some very sweet front-to-backs and taps in that vid
  11. Cheers mate , will buy myself a pair of those as soon as I can And yes, I still have the standard rotor, it is the wavy one and it is 180mm. Shall I get a picture of it anyway?
  12. Maybe you've heated the disc up so many times that it's started to reform. That's what happened to mine, the rotor just gets so hot and then bends really easily when you're using it.
  13. I would say the best way to bed your pads in would be to ride round with your brake pulled hard for a good couple of minutes, then pour muddy/gritty water all over your pads and then rinse with clean water after that. Should make them bite alot harder
  14. Okay buddy, thanks for the information. Do you reckon you could stick up a link for those downhill pads your talking about? And I will some pictures up of my rotor and pads in a little while, it's hammering it down atm .
  15. I'm guessing it's a fair bit lighter though?
  16. Thankyou for the link, but that rotor doesn't come in the size I need? (That's if i'm correct in saying the disc I have is a 180) And I will stick a pic up of the pads when I get home tonight as well as a picture of the bent rotor.
  17. Okay Jack, cheers mate And I think the disc is 180... not totally sure though, will check later on tonight when I get home.
  18. Well I have an Onza front disc brake that used to perform brilliantly for me. Had it set up just right and the bite was great. But now, I think due to the brake getting hot, the disc is quite bent, and the pads are also pretty well worn. I just need to know, following this link, which pads are the best for me? http://tartybikes.co.uk/search.php?category_id=83 And also I think i'm going to buy a new disc, but not a whole new brake. So which one out of these would you guys recommend: http://tartybikes.co.uk/search.php?category_id=76 ? Thankyou,
  19. Yeah, then people with FFW's could also smash all their teeth!
