  1. Preload, just before you gap drop your weight slightly down and back like you would with a sidehop and kick through the pedal as hard as you can. I'd also recommend watching the Ryan leech tutorials and get on to trashzen.com
  2. Sunday, lime street about 11 ish. Next hype 2013 facebook page for more information
  3. All the reviews I'd seen said they're great. I see now they're not
  4. I bought a set of the 2011 HS33's about november last year to replace my '05 and vee setup. I got the bike out this afternoon to have a little bash around and the piston arm had snapped where it mounts to the lever. I bled it before the winter with water/antifreeze and kept it inside an insulated workshed so that i could still use it in the cold weather. I was just wondering if anyone else has had any problems with them or heard about issues to do with them.
  5. 2011 Saracen 120mm travel all mountain hardtail, use everyday no matter the weather. If it's nice out then I'll go for a nice long ride on my way home
  6. Actually, the weld doesn't create a stress point. If anything it adds strength, however, if you were to file/grind the weld so that it sits flush with the frame then that would create a stress point where you've thinned out the frame. All I would do is remove the main body of the mount and leave the welds alone
  7. Hacksaw, chisel, hammer. Cut two pieces out of the crank, remove pieces with chisel and hammer. Unscrew freewheel with bb tool
  8. Id talk to jonny mc, he's had a couple over the years
  9. What year you looking at getting?
  10. Select bikes went out of business earlier this year, tried running a normal bike shop and it didn't go too well
  11. Get shredded, learn to ride like Damon and get some videos done
  12. 11 should be sound, forecast looks good for Sunday aswell. Cal I'll meet you at lime street then we can meet everyone else by the docks 11 should be sound, forecast looks good for Sunday aswell. Cal I'll meet you at lime street then we can meet everyone else by the docks
  13. Be worth working with tartybikes to get a rampworx setup going, riding centre with a trials shop on site

  15. Do it, the northwest needs something like that so much Do it, the northwest needs something like that so much
  16. The North West desperately needs a trials park, I'm from Liverpool and when the weather is rubbish there is nowhere to go. The only place I can think to ride is rampworx, but thats more for 24"/26" street riders.
  17. Stick with the BB7 just get the new model, I'd also run an odessy slick bmx cable. I used one with my vee and it was so smooth, almost like a maggie with a decent bleed
  18. often feels like it, i ride during my lunch break so it probably makes it about that.
  19. 30/35 minutes each way(3 miles)
  20. Riding with a trials/street gearing can be done, but if you're doing it everyday it can become tedious. I currently ride 6 miles to college and back on an 18:15 gearing and its not great
