Watched about half of it cos i dont like long videos haha
Definitely look better on mod although more variation in the moves/lines would have made it better.
Good video though bud, take it you're back in inverness now?
-
Looks really nice. Think a rear black rim and double White rim tape would make it look even better

What frame is it? Does it have a separate welded on piece of metal for the bash mount ( think it's called a gusset?)
If it does then I don't know if It will work.
I'm not sure on how to actually drill it though, I'll find out for you tomorrow
-
It is possible yeah, Ive got a hole for the bash mount on mine
-
are echos longer than most bikes though?
Depends what one you get. The '09 echo lites came in short (1000 wb) and long (1020 wb), the 2011 were 1020 wb and the 2012 version is 1000wb. Can't say anything about any of the older echoes however.
Also answering your original question, I know 2 people with koxx yellows and they're really nice bikes to ride, really bouncy and easy to flick about

41" sidehop, 37" side to back, 37" frenchie, and started properly doing gap to fronts and can get 6ft up a pallet now
-
So how is that a hook then?
Stack of pallets with another pallet slightly slanted against them. They're not proper hooks I suppose, but that's what people around here call them.
-
I'm using Sl's there pretty strong, but i do keep away from hooks.
I do hooks a fair bit (not vertical or static ones though) and im starting to do alot of stuff to front so im not keen on the idea of them
-
Get some Sl's and a black stem, it will look lush.
Definitely not SL's, looking for something stronger than what i've already got haha! But yeah a black stem is definite
-
The forks are knackered haha, theyre DOB magnesiums from years ago. Getting a set of urbans in a month or so and probably a new stem but I quite like the black cranks.
Cheers

did some things to my ice -
New wheels
New rear tyre
new rear brake
Finally cut the brake hose and put it through the frame
Tell me what you think

Does it matter if the cylinders are at different angles when the crossover is tight? Do you just put both into the clamps and it will bend to that shape over time?
-
long nose pliars?
i can see some of my threads.... as long as its tight its ok
Okay, cheers

Hi, my new crossover and lever arrived today but I'm having problems with them.
Firstly, I was putting my new lever blade into my lever body and my spring and piston popped out. Stupidly I put the piston in before the spring so how do I get it out?
Secondly it was the m6/m8 already built crossover with shroud nut and olive I bought. I just tried to put the olive and shroud nut side on and it got really tight when threads were still showing. I took it out and the olive was completely crushed. Is it ok for some threads to be showing pr am I doing something wrong?
Thanks

Can't really see how sideways you're going in the video, but from the angle its videod at you definitely need to go more side on.
You're taking off from a nice position on the pallet, not too far on the edge and not too far back so if you're comfortable then that seems fine.
Maybe try smaller hops/less hops to get you to where you want to take off from, and pre-loading some more will help you aswell
-
Think I was just confused that you could buy an m8/m6 crossover but only one option for barbed fittings.
Just decided to order the actual built crossover this morning haha
-
I recently burst my crossover pipe and I'm Going to cut the amount of hose needed of my current hose as it's way to long. The crossover you can buy on tartty which is already fitted with barbed fittings has 2 different sizes (m6/m8) comes with an olive and shroud nut. I'm confused as to why I would need them?
Could I not just buy 2 barbed fittings, put them into the cut hose and put them onto my brake without a shroud nut and olive?
And are the barbed fittings the same size but the m6/m8 is referring to something else to do with the other parts on the cylinder?
Sorry if it's confusing, don't really know how to explain what I'm confused about haha.
Cheers
Edit : I'm using the newer cylinders if that helps.
-
I go to the edge of where I'm taking off and I find taking a huge preload helps. Go at an angle aswell.
Might want to type it into the search bar, I did recently and found a few topics with different things to try if what I said doesn't suit you
-
Really?
why do you think that? In other words, 'bump'

Look comfy brakeless! Should go fully brakless for a bit.
I'm thinking about doing that after I finish my proper video. Don't seem to be able to do more than one hop before a side hop though
Cheers
-
Me and Derek had no rear brakes today so we took some clips and put this together. Nothing amazing and not much variation but oh well
Comments please?

TNN have a video that shows how to speed up the process or how to fix it I believe ski ski;)
Don't have a belt sander though
