Magura Oil does not haha

Hey, after 3 days your trying side hops?? I was still trying to trackstand properly after 3 days haha! Don't try progress super quick, get the basics really nailed e.g balance, back wheel hops and pedal kicks. As long as you enjoy your riding your doing it all correct keep at it though!

Twitter is easier than facebook, less harassment and you never get that issue of liking somebodies status, then 5mins later somebody had a conversation on that status and you have 100 notifications!! It's a fact that most people will say they hate twitter untill they become addicted to it and love it. Plus you can always link it to your facebook so your updates are simultaneous. I have both, purely for getting in touch with riding mates.

Hey, You unbolt the stem and the headset bolt. Slip off all the spacers and the stem. Remove from the bottom Then obviously swap your headset bearing over and reassemble with a star nut

The TPA is for as it says emergency adjustment. I don't know exactly why but I find the TPA's can get broken easily.... So I avoid TPA adjustment just in case. I would like to know why as well to be honest!

i think it look awesome! Real neat

I don't want to sound a fool or annoying, but it does seem that whenever you are given advice, you ignore and simply ask about the Neon Forks. How light are you trying to go? I assume you know what your doing in regards to riding because your looking for quality parts that are light. If you were just starting out or was not a smooth rider I would go with the stronger forks. IMO 100 grams, 200 grams is not going to effect your riding that much, is it?

i have echo - they are great

no need to be so abrupt! and i say that because thats how much my workplace buys them for

It's 100% personal choice mate. I have a friend who rides v-brake up front and hs33 on the back, but he has a disc fork setup spare in his van. You can make all of them stop you on a 6-pence but hs33 can be sharp and hard to roll with, while the disc has awesome power also but more control with rolling on the nose. Non the less, it's personal preference and regardless of others, give each a go and see what you like best. (and when I say try them all, borrow mates bikes don't buy all the kit for the 3 types haha)

Hey, I know the pain you feel haha! I used to lucky enough to ride in a factory's grounds and it had about 25/30 palletts, but now I have none you could try going to a pallett dealer, sounds silly I know but guys make a living by trading them! They can be up to £10 each though, but that's for the euro-sized pallet that companies use for shipping. You may get odd pallets and irregular sized ones for cheap. Good luck mate

I run Monty tyres, its a 2.7 on the rear and 2.0 on the front. They are great for me, but they are stupidly wide on the rear. Its a tight fit on the Echo Booster I have

When you have nailed the gap, you can add a lil bit of style to it really make it look amazing

Good Shout! Never thought bout that!

Echo TR 72 is what Bronz rides and I personally love it! I would opt for the Echo

I run a booster, it basically stops the frame from flexing when using the rear brake. Strengthening the brake and in-turn giving a greater hold! The disc option I have no idea about, but generally I only know a small handful of riders with a rear disc. HS33 on the rear is perfectly adequate in my opinion

I have to agree with chris4stars. The more you ride the bigger you can go, I doubt anybody could do the size of gap they do today without alot of practise and getting to grips with the techniques. I started with trying to gap frm a line on a road to another marker, or from a curb to a road marking, now I can gap 5ft, which I am quite proud of as I have only been back riding a month or so. But moral for me is, practise, hone technique and have fun! Take it to serious you lose the reason you started to ride

Only method of removal I have heard of is cutting them off

I wud have to say quite mental, if u cud lay a heavy woomping bassline to it, then it could work as a dubstep track

I don't know if this helps, but I have found using a slightly sideways hop, I can gain a bit more distance. Maybe worth a try?
