well i still had to go through the trauma of having both my bikes stolen to end up with that bad lad haha, that said though i got the zhi back and insurance payed out for the felt so all's well that ends well i suppose !
-
never mind youve already found it
-
insurance claim came through for my other bike that got stolen and this is what I ended up with, very pleased with it its super light very smooth and very fast !
-
like anything then really you could have the best, lightest frame in the world a shit spec and build wont do it any justice
-
f**k me i wernt expecting that side to back, shit
-
your body doesn't move at all in terms of sideways movement its all in your knees, yeah you will end up hanging off one side of the bike and when your wheels are on top of the wall then you can pull your body up with your arms/legs and regain your balance, its easier said than done but thats the basic jist and its something to practice at
-
its hard to explain but if you pre load down and spring up as fast as you can just concentrate on going straight up dont worry about any side ways movements just yet, when you're at the peak of your hop bring your knees up and to the left (to the right if youre left footed obviously) this should help you to stay on the wall better as there is very little sideways momentum since youve just jumped up, sounds like what you're doing is literally a sideways hop so its just throwing you over the wall once you're on it, hope this helps

ive been running a 2 finger for years and put a 4 finger on yesterday the brake has miles more hold and power but it has made it feel pretty spongey due to frame flex, gonna put a booster on and see how it feels
-
the music was doing my head in so much i muted it but riding wise pretty good i liked the big rolling gap to the curb thing and the line up the pallet across the beam and to the log thing was really good
-
its behind the heinz factory in wigan, its not as good as it looks haha
-
alright chill out you bellend
-
bleed it as normal block the lever grub screw off refill the syringe and push like f**k, should pop out
-
how lucky did you get with that stem haha, could have been a bad one that
-
yeah me neither im not soft put it that way, but, when its your own bike and you really wanna get it back the last thing you wanna do is get giddy you have to be a little bit smarter about it unless you're 110% sure whose got it and exactly where it is, all i had was a phone number and a possible address which could have been bollocks for all i knew if id have gone in there swinging fists and it wasnt there id have been kicking myself forever cos these kinds of people know so many little scrots he'd have just got rid of it to cover his own arse like ive already said i was only going round there as a very last resort because there where no other options
-
everyones all talk on here though that address he gave could have been bollocks for all i knew, if id have gone round there all guns blazing and my bike wasnt there thats it ive f**ked it cos hell just get rid when he finds out ive been to his house and id have never seen it again i was only on my way over there to smash the little b*****d as a very last resort i just got lucky that the police went round to the right place at the right time
-
f**king love this guy all his videos are ace, and i like how his riding doesn't just consist solely on 180s like most other street riders, very nice mix of trials and more streety shit
-
well the lad that had it diddnt actually steal it, police said they've had cases like this in the past and the stolen stuff gets passed from pillar to post for obvious reasons, he will know a friend of a friend of a friend whos actually committed the robbery but getting information out of everyone is gonna be impossible, with any luck it might turn up on gumtree but i doubt it!
-
you dont NEED longer cranks and you dont NEED a lower stem its preference what you do NEED at the very least is a rear wheel front rim and spokes a longer chain a bigger rear sprocket, frame and forks
-
mod stems on stock are quite nice depending on your frame geo obviously and as long as its not stupidly high, ive had an echo one on for years and stock stems of today are getting higher and higher, copying off me i reckon
-
i think so, he's been found with stolen property they obviously wanna question him about the other stolen shit, not getting my hopes up though i was lucky to get one bike back
-
you'll all be glad to know my bike is now in my possession, i was just on my way round to his house to go and kill him when i got a phonecall from the police saying they'd recovered the bike from his address, was his lucky day i suppose cos he swerved a beating from me
-
not good not good at all, after a long winded battle with the police about them being useless and not doing anything i rang the guy arranged to meet him today got an address and then he said this morning his brother had sold it to a mate, obviously bullshit but he's somehow cottened on its me or why would he sell it for 250 when i was offering the full 350, well the police are going round to the address he gave me today but weather they'll find anything i doubt its even in there he's probably moved it now cos he knows ive got that address
-
yeah ive reported it, if its in wigan it will get found cos theres only a handful of riders here and i know them all and yeah both frames are rare so its only a matter of time but ive got a feeling its the gypos :/
-
standish but they could be anywhere, hoping its just idiots that have nicked it that wont even think about splitting them
-
lastnight both my bikes where stolen from my mums garage, long shot posting them on here especially the fixie but if anyone see's anything please contact me :/ sorry for the shit quality phone pictures its all i have
