Am i wrong to like it? Lol i irde mod, and my bike is currently polished naked frame, i was wanting a sunburst kind of orange from day 1 before i knew who the hell danny macaskill was lol, being in the sport more than 24 hours i now know all about him, dont worry, but i was thinking blacking all wheels and hubs, i arent going to gwt looked at as being a wannabe am i? As its mod and not street style stock size-ish
You all got me paranoid now lol

JD lubricity has to be one of the best made up words ive seen lol! Good times, ive just water bled my brakes but with some machine cutting fluid in the mix, seems ok, brakes were done with water prior to that, ans spat out some nasty looking black solids! Any ideas??

He turned that stupid audience around! Well done joe! Hes got plenty more to show them, come on!!!

So is there a system and torque settings to fitting spokes?
-
Not a case of worn cogs and new chain riding over them is it?
Na theyre pretty good, you can see a sag in the top of the chain, ive ordered sum small splitters, ( through work haha) so will sort it and try and get that 45 degree angle that has been mentioned, and go from there
-
This has all really helped, just the bend to po up to un weight the bike is sometimes causing a loss in balance, new stem helped too
Thanks lads

What do you mean you didn't mean Reby Sky?
You'd still have a ride...
That geo is perfect! Lol

If everyone keeps laughing like this, this waste of internet bytes will become a sticky lol, what is it with the cornwall folk lately and showing what tack theyve bought lol
-
ahh that blue sky picture is now my new desktop wallpaper
your welcome :$ lol
-
here you go, have you got a better camera? i couldn't go round spokes because of pixelation etc, so theres plants growing out of your rims 30,000 feet up unfortunately, while since i mucked about on there, good to get my head around again, better pic better results mate.
i am actually crying laughing here!

second video 3mins in big gap hop to back wheel, beautiful!
-
looks good, keep a look out for it, need more mod videos about, and the technique breakdown stuff looks good too
-
What Ive always noticed when people are trying to learn to keep the bike on the rear wheel, is that they dont bend their arms. Keep your elbows bent and pull the bars up towards your chest, bend your knees and keep your hips over the rear axle; you shouldnt be expending any real effort to keep the bike up on end, that lets you concentrate on your sideways balance and movement to compensate
ive also been doing that from time to time, like pulling too much on bars so hanging back and arms straight, not good, links in with what others have said by trying to keep arms separate of body to maintain balance and still create the hop, thanks

Ive got magura yellows on atm, with hs 33 about to bleed with water/ cutting fluid see if that can improve hold, mines on a really old grind that i bought it with, so i might have to renew that but the hold has improved purely by putting the yellows on i dont know if theres a softer one but i like them,
-
They're the details i was after, brilliant lads cheers! I love tf!
-
Cheers man i'll go and try that when it stops Raining
I have awall about 2 foot thats perfect to get the wheel on then you can get settled then start hopping more easily, without the pedal problem and without all the problems rocking can cause, get more learning time really, picnic benches or outdoor seatings all good for it too
-
Awwww no, dont say ive made a school boy error, i shot the old chain in the bin and threw the other one on to get back on the trails, what an idiot, is there a way to work out how tight to have the chain? So i can work it out myself
-
Is this as simple as its the wrong chain? I was out on my XC just started a trail and boom, the chain went, luckily i could get to a road and coasted to the onsite bike shop, and bought an sram 9 speed chain, i fitted and got on with the trail, but the small set was unusable over anything slightly rough.
Im useless with setting gears, im just learning all the setting up now as ive never had a bike with more than one front crank before,
-
Ive started a thread nearlly identical in the beginners section called rear wheel hopping, give that a look, some good lads coming in with some useful little tips, i was so close it was the tiny details i was missing, hope it helps
