  1. i used dirt jams round the 08 mark they werent to bad only 100mm travel so ideal for street as well but as said above dirt jumpers pre 06 were the best you could have especially if your going second hand you should be able to pick up a bargin
  2. i think the majority of people on here ride metal pedals bit stronger and that, personally i use dmr v8's cheap and grippy as hell but pedals is always personal preference
  3. look at the impact off that rear wheel that is a brilliantly timed photo his face is one of pure effort man i couldnt get my body into that position
  4. good mate enjoyed it good to see a few 180's thrown in there

    Tool Set

    thats should be fine to be honest for basic tinkering keeping things running smooth etc,
  6. brilliant, got some serious backsweep on those bars there
  7. wow whatever next triple front flip....incredible though they guy has some balls and that is a big ass jump
  8. i love the kawasaki green yeh those bars are not going to match the frame, never mind maybe a swap in the near future white bars would really set it off
  9. it should do the only other things could be the seatpost size could be different, i imagine the headset will be the same size, and i would say the bottom bracket should be the same size, what full sus you got? have a gander online and check seatpost sizes just in case, just thought steerer tube might be different but looks like you got plenty of spacers so you should be ok with that one
  10. looks good mate i reckon theres some more green you could throw on there yet, (i know dmr do some lovely lime green v8 pedals) how long till you get the frame back?
  11. ahh right thanks for clearing that up ben
  12. amazing i enjoyed the start the most those little slow mo shots of power were very enjoyable, bit of a random nooob question i understand what a dab is what happens if they fall off or have to jump off does that count as 1 or what? really enjoyed it amazing skill and pure power
  13. amazing the speed he can get and keep just from pumping and a short run up guys amazing so smooth
  14. im a cheapskate and use my old rear mech adjusted so it holds the single gear and then zip tied onto the frame works brilliantly
  15. i got the 1.2 and am immensely happy with everyone who has rode it has been suprised the only things i have changed is the grips and the rear hub. and stuck some better pads on, its a great bike to learn on. i got mine off ebay though cant speak for winstanleys oh and i single speeded mine and got a stronger chain but that was more for security and strength than anything else
  16. ill be up there watching the dh but will probs come across (if i can persuade the missies) and watch the trials bit as well
  17. i always use one finger to brake means you have more hand on the grip therfore more grip, im using hs33 with rockman blue on a smooth rim, i used to use 2 fingers on trials i finally learnt to pedal kick and then tried it with one finger and found it so much easier
  18. excellent video man those crashes at the end were brutal, props to him for nailing them though especially those taps to rear
  19. those pics are huge mate i could get on it and ride it from here looks nice though a few more gold bits would really finish it off,

    Pass Out

    nice riding and a good edit enjoyed it
  21. ive been using pallets they are good for progression as well or if you have any industrial estates they are usually full of low walls and such like best to ride them when they are closed though weekends after work etc
  22. just seen this on the news actually have they confirmed him dead or is it just rumours that they maybe killed someone who looked like him. IMO it will make no difference to al queda or the taliban in the slightest if anything they might fight harder for a while, as for counterstrikes they may do but they have had plenty of chances in the last few years or they might be saving it all up for the 2012 olympics, but having said all that until i see his smiling face on tv with a round through his temple im a little sceptical edit just seen the news again turns out they might have a body so they might be telling the truth, however david cameron is saying its a massive step forward but all that will happen is some other bloke will step up and take his place so nothing much will change as for pakistan it wasnt even like it was just on the border its near the capital they might have a slightly difficult time explaining why the worlds most wanted man was hiding in a mansion
  23. im addicted to trials hd struggling on the extreme tracks a little got the mappack for it loads more levels=more addiction
  24. measure twice cut once ---- my dad as long as you got the bars your in control ---- an old mountain bike movie i always rememeber it for some strange reason
  25. i run echo tr pads on the rear smooth rim little bit of tar hold and bite is amazing and run rockman blues on the front smooth no tar and they hold brilliant as well, the echos cost me 16quid well worth it havent tried them in the wet though not that brave
