what your mate does sounds pretty damn bellendish to me...

if i´d leave a comment everytime i watched this yet and found it awesome we´ll be on page 10 now...

yeah,totally agree!if you come here as a noob you´ll probably think its common behavior like "more braking power-grind rims" and think "too short bars-just extend,its fine".and thats a bit misleading imo,because it definitely exeeds the load the bars are designed for. if you see an ultralight bike part,the only reason its that way is that the manufacturer ran FEM-analysis and did prototyping and stuff to know where exactly the weight could be saved. nice to know how you did it , most people would look for a ready solution or just get wider bars though

was pretty life-changing i assume

wait,where in this vid was a rape going on? :wink2:

ah,you have to name it after the pad it came from,plus the surnames first letter? wouldnt be cool for me it was a v!z pad and my surname begins with a "j",now put that together hahahahahaha n.wood:green cheeks joking aside, i´d prefer non sexual related names edit: soft pads:smoothies hard pads:ruffnecks and if dave33 wins some comps while riding my pads i´ll think about "kerrang!"

as i said,some were planned as jokes,but let the brainstorming begin rim eaters boogers (colour pointed on that one) apple pads(colour again) btw they really look a bit like sanitary pads,wont choose this one though

to be honest i got a music title now that has a refrain exactly explaining my situation regarding the comp....i´ll see. through my search for sounds i found a damn funny track,you have to check it out guys go hang-i f**king hate people(isnt my actual song choice though,but i´d lie if i said i didnt think about it ) http://www.jamendo.com/de/track/1028999/i-f**king-hate-people loled so hard

if cerictgm could choose a name theyll be the "hitlerland pads" lol few ideas(of which some are obviously jokes) -pad-al-kicks -rad pads -pad and brakefast -pad-o-phile(not my favorite haha)

then you seem to be very in danger already,if there cant be added some for you through this! steel bar in an alu handlebar,if that gets contact to the actual bars its just a matter of time that its digging into it leading to failure also the clamping areas wall thicknesses and inner tapers are desingned to take a certain leverage plus tolerance,which you exceed by intention... sorry,just my two cents

after seeing vashas vid i think i´ll pass. at the moment i am pretty certain about every 12 year old in the world being better in terms of riding and creativity. may sound coward,but its just true,looking at my vid and having music trouble and stuff i just think its not worth it

a fiver would be awesome,i could buy bigger ammounts of resin sooner,wouldnt leave me with the problem to wait and pay for postage each time i order that stuff. i have to calculate how much a set of pads effectively costs me,lots of hours in the oven for hard pads.envelopes to send them are -.50ct each,as i said,i need to sacrifice spare time in which i could ride etc. now every set looks the same and is free of bubbles(some have,but only on the surface one would sand down anyways),so i would pretty much speak of a product now.i think somewhere between 10-12 Euro a set would be realistic once i can make enough to sell them,theres postage too, and i dont wanna give pads away as expensive as established ones,to be honest this was kind of the reason i thought about making them myself,bought pads set me back too much imo.its still just polyurethane... a name for the pad models would be cool,just to get them in your brains guys haha! green,hmmmm,hulk pads? i´ll now glue some medium ones in as my grind is just dead,and 2 other compounds i´m yet to test. edit:just removed the hard ones,they had NO signs of wear,not bad for 3x2hours sessioning

corrosion breaks through nearly every clear coat out there,spray it chrome silver or use hammerite clear laquer

why does noone mould them like i do? okay,it takes a week to cure them,especially softer ones. but its so easy and the recess shape is the same every time without effort there were also cousts that were bonded to the surface of a "decapitated" pad,i mean the pad body itself,sounds scary to me

if that was for the novice category i´ll lift my hat and say "touche"...

how´re your forks? bike looks good. another thing i´ve spy´ed is how that hito is a fourplay copy lol

is that knut?

where do you guys get all your music from? good stuff costs a fair amount for licensing and creative commons stuff isnt the best out there so how? only way to get this happening is to repeat a cc song thats public domain licensed,as i got a 2:20 song and a 4:00 vid,sux. in germany the copyright organizations like the GEMA are pretty much making using music no joke...

got no other pic of the actual setup: atm its front deore 596 disc,organic original pads,180mm xt rotor from 2009 rear hs33 2009,4-finger blade,echo cnc clamps,selfmade pads

so,as i said to öiam in a pm,i´ll definitely try all compounds for myself before giving any pad to anyone. dont want to use someone as a crash test dummie. the only one who will get samples for hardness testing is dave33,he built the mould for me,and i cant thank him enough! (he made himself a test dummie through this,so its okay ,little joke) once the testing is done and the right 2 compounds for smooth and ground rims are found i´ll give some away,for the cost of postage and a little donation to keep me supplied with resin. once theyre one like another and without any imperfections theyll be a tenner or so,just to compensate the few € the material and an hour of time,costs me. thats pretty good regarding i have energy consumption using the oven for tempering and working with irritating stuff. that would be 2-3€ per set i got, to put them into future development,sounds fair to me. may i say again that they work good?happy chappy!

i still think i´ve won...

josh bender of trials? holy f***

where it was rewelded would be cool haha
