  1. yeh the black plastic ring< if it isnt pressed in flush or the correct way round it will cause the freehub to bind up.
  2. does it lock up when you do the bolts up tight rather than just nipping them up?also is the seal seated in plush as that will also cause it to go tight. i had the same problem few years back.
  3. id vote for trialtech i had some rockmans and they snapped after 3months and i ended up smashing my face on a wall
  4. hahaha that bloke in kensys was a proper weirdo.thought he was going to bend me over and abuse me at one point.rode sooooooo bad today it was embarressing but hey first time in a month
  5. winstanleys bmx really good online store they list basically everything

  8. im running try all rims at the min and did on my stock aswell.find they hold grinds well and last a fair while. are you using a new disc with a sharp edge?if your using a fat grinding disc try using a slightly thinner one.i always do medium sharp grinds and find thre ok.

    What Chain

    a good chain is the kmc 510hx or the trialtech as they are the same chain. they do it in two versions to suite you sprocket im running the 1/8th on 18 by 12 gearing and never had any problems at all.highly recommend.
  11. tnns are a good pad all round. heatsinks are also good for bite but i found they lack abit on hold. now riding some croco yellows and find them realy good for hold and bite. it all depends what you are looking for in a pad.good hold or something which will suite you all round.have a look in the pad review and you will find some realy good reviews in there which should help you.
  12. yeh i totally agree i should of mentioned that i was the one that worked on the bike.i get abit fiery sometimes and abit short just cought me on a bad day anyone that knows me will say im sound and a good laugh and i am i just jumped im to quick and i apolagise to everyone if i was rude and aggressive(especially paul).
  13. ok i will all im doing is defending what ive done.i honestly havent caused this issue at all.it just annoys me people saying i dont know what im doing when i do and i done everything correctlyi didnt even get as far as to fitting a new bb as the old one just pulled in and out so definatly didnt strip the threads putting a new one in.
  14. i am very aware of whats in front of me.oh and i cant remember seeing you stood with me looking at bike.I KNOW WHAT IM DOING AND HAVE FITTED AND TAKEN OUT HUNDREDS OF BBS BEFORE THIS SO IM FULLY CAPABLE. you may think im an arsehole but other than me who worked on the bike knows the situation so stop assuming you all know what you think i done when you werent there.none of this was my fault as ive said before.i just hate people talking about me and what ive done when you dont know the circumstances
  15. i am not an arse hose at all.and i relly didnt cause the bb problem you could clearly see the bb was in at an angle.the non drive side cup which was in the drive side pulled straight out and the fixed cup clearly had a gap round it.it was tight but didnt pull the threads out when i done it.this was not my fault at all i just got it out.oh and i do know what im doing thankyou very much and am very competant at my jobno the brake lever body was broken and was being held on with tape.
  16. your right there is nothing wrong with threadless bbs. i just thought the lad deserves his money back as the bb issue wasnt the only problem with the bike. he would of needed a new rear brake body and re bleed as pistons were mega slow beyond belief.the frong brake cable was way to short had a spoke missing in rear wheel and it didnt have a front wheel when he got it so 100quid is alot for a which was wrecked by previous owner when he could get his money back and buy a legit good bike for the same amount without spending loads on this.
  17. oow get you.the old bb wouldnt even go in correct without just spinning then pulling straite out anyway. and personally i couldnt really give a rats arse what you have done.anyway in fuked off with this crap bikes do my fukin head in the best of times let alone trying to explain something i have done which wasnt my fault.
  18. i am not retarded thankyou.and i do know what i am looking at.the old bb had been put in right on the piss and in the wrong way. i removed the old bb retapped the frame just to clean it and the new and old bb screwed in a bit then you could just pull it out again all the threads were fuked as the previous owner tried fitting it and its clear he had no idea and used a chisel to tighten it. so without any of you seeing the actual frame and know the whole story.shut up and stop thinking you all know everything and if you got anyfing to say mesg me yeh true but i do know what im doing what makes you so good then?and im not a retard and do know the difference in two bb sizes.the old bb wouldnt even wind in just push in so the previous owner fiked it up not me thankyou.
  19. as if.my boss brought 3of these for are shop they are even worse in the flesh than in the picture.a chav brought one few weeks ago of us for £100 quid.they are right pieces of crap and got fed up with some of the idiot costomers we get in saying"look bruv its a wicked trials bike that is well ream" or "haha that looks like scaffolding" DO NOT BUY.
  20. has lost his coustellier pads,anyone seen them?

  21. looks really nice build you got.the rear wheel looks like it was built by a true professional oh yeah i stil havent got my takeaway!never using that company again
