  1. It pretty much turns out at around the same amount as it costs to buy a good freehub (Eg: Profile mini). And it's worth it because of the EP's, the response and the shifting of weight to the center of the bike.
  2. 0:56 looked like a paaainful rib cracker
  3. You know you don't alwaays have to buy new parts immediately after buying the bike. Learn a bit of riding skill first. Get to grips with the concept of it all, and then that'll also help you to figure out which parts you do want to change, and which parts are fine as they are. But as other people have said, a front freewheel is definately recommended, And the Echo SL is by far the best option if you have the money.
  4. Sweet video mate, really nice riding, and some really cool locations. Looked nice in HD too
  5. Hey i've seen you up Waterlooville a couple of times mate, really like this video too. I live in Horndean and take my bike down Waters regularly. Drop me a PM on here if you ever fancy a ride
  6. Yes, same here. I was in New York and in Central park about 3 months ago, sat on those rocks on the hottest day of their summer (105 farenheit!) and ate a NY burger, soon as i got there, thought 'wow, this would be a cool thing to ride' and then i see this vid. sweet
  7. Wow, a masterpeice of a trials vid. Great riding, and the song suited the video excellently too

    Sweet and short, liked it. Songs good too, never get bored of a bit of Rusko
  9. That was a cool video of a very talented rider, but seriously, if i found an abandoned hotel my first thought would not be; 'oh my goshh, i'm gonna' hop on the chairs and then ride on the roof on my trials bike'
  10. I think saving up a little more will do no harm, but you shouldn't need to spend over £300 and buy something you don't yet need. Once you're validated check out the for-sale section on here, you'll see some great specced bikes with a very low price tag, and i think pretty much every bike you see on here will be at least twice as nice as those being sold on Ebay. Gave you a validation vote, by the way
  11. I NEED something like that in my back garden.
  12. You're asking for idea's of what colours go well with white ..? Every fudging colour goes well with white
  13. Well i'm running an SL, so i guess i can't say i don't go for quiet freewheels, but i didn't buy this because of the loudness. I bought it because of the great reviews and opinions on it. And the fact it's probably the most commonly run freewheel too/

    Nice video mate, you have a nice style of riding. song went well too.
  15. Really did like this video, but can't say i preffered it to some of your others. Get back on a Rockman!
  16. In my opinion the modulation on the rear is not such a good thing. I prefer a good V for the on/off'ness

    What a nice video, really nice riding and really calming, liked it alot
  18. Yeah Giro's are very good helmets, but they may be a little over £50, Or am i just thinking of the Giro Xen?
  19. That was actually pretty cool, and i like the song too.
  20. Hello there mate, i have an Echo SL freewheel and i really cannot say a bad thing about it. Sweet engagement, not too expensive, and really loud too.
  21. So does this mean i have 162 engagements because i'm running 18:12 gearing ratio too, and an Echo SL freewheel.
  22. No trading allowed in pre-members, sorry mate.
  23. This sounds exactly like what happened to me with my Profile hub. It actually seized just as i was about to do a drop, and that wasn't the best drop i've ever pulled suprisingly. What happened is one of the pawls snapped and got stuck somewhere in the freewheel, so the same thing might have happened to yours? Not too expensive to repair
