  4. of course you will notice the difference as you are moving from flat bars to risers, it will give you a taller front end

  15. Hey Quick question what pads do you think are better with cnc backings, Heatsink Cousts or Heatsink Yellows? Thanks
  16. You would post in the wanted section, or browse the forsale section Those chain tugs will be fine, a tensioned chain will stop your chain skipping and will make your chain/cogs last longer. (but dont make it too tight edit: beaten to it lol
  17. You can get cheaper freewheels on ebay like the shimano or dicta freewheel, but they are not very safe for trials usage, once you get validated on here you should be able to get a second hand one for a reasonable price. Just looked at your pics and your bike doesnt have any chain tugs, so unless you want to buy some you will need to move the wheel backwards in your frame until the chain is tensioned correctly. But make sure that you move the axle evenly on both side.
  18. When you pedal and it doesn't go anywhere means that your freewheel is knackered and you need a new one. Your chain is not a half link, just tension it and ride it till it dies, As for the pedals they look ok to me. Hope this helps you out mate.
  19. measure the length from where the centre of your steerer tube would be to where the centre of your bars would be
  20. yeah I thought it was going to be bad news but just wanted to make sure before i ask for a refund, thanks for the replies so far.
  21. Still can't figure out what "worend" is supposed to mean though!
  22. Basically I bought this hub second hand with the intention of radially laceing it, when I recieved it, it seems that it has previously been laced radially but with the spokeheads facing inward instead of outwards. As you should be able too see from the pictures the spokes have left some large indents on the side of the flange and started too pull through the hub slightly. Is it safe to use this hub or is it fit for the bin. thanks in advance
  23. i had this problem before mate take your lever of and check your tpa (the little red nob) it may be that the threads are broken inside it.
  24. obvious answer, but spin further lol when spining turn your head and look at where you want to land at, doin this will turn your shoulders and the rest of your body will follow
