  1. i want this software so bad!
  2. some of the frames that had the head angle off were because people who ordered had no idea of geo and ordered like 1080/365/72° and wanted a certain reach though,there are things you cant build because of physics.in that cases marino asks if youre sure,someone thinks he did his homework and either insist on the hta or the reach,not knowing that one makes the other impossible lol the lack of a decent jig plays a role in that too,imagine the build quality if he had one!
  3. strange,everyone seems to climb up the a** of anyone that releases a cool vid,if i do the same in someones native language its enough to call me this. :wink2:
  4. to explain things a bit,he said: "its a great forum that is keeping me filming,thanks to all!" i said something like: "youre welcome,your vid´s very good,again!" haha edit:talking smooth has about ten meanings in english,which one was it lol?
  5. de nada,tu video es muy bueno de nuevo! edited to change "este" into "es",my spanish is awful lol
  6. to be honest i´ve never heard of pads being rescued through boiling. does that really work?
  7. most people seem to change the bars/stem combo to some higher/shorter setup after buying the bike and seem to do better for bunny hops etc. the zoot is more on the longer side of frame reach,so if youre used to a park bike maybe an inspired is more suitable for you.
  8. second hand,nearly new 26 element frame from martin direske for 210 euros?
  9. arrrrrrgh!had to stop watching!
  10. when you get old you´ll have a hell of an arthritis lol sick riding
  11. seatpost shims are available in steps of 0.1mm,you´ll just have to cut them to the width of the bar clamp... ran some 22.2 bars in a 25.4 stem for 2 years without any problems(shims werent included with the bars) i wouldnt be afraid of their stability,seatposts have to cope with multiple higher loads edit:there ARE 28.6 shims from procraft,too!but they cost twice as much as a seatpost shim haha
  12. the first one was genius,funny as hell! the second was somewhere between sick and sicker lol
  13. sanding them down helps sometimes,but as weegav said,you´ll be likely to get new ones,the hassle will return sooner or later
  14. you were a bmxer before this bike! i see it! joking,pretty nice for 2 months though!
  15. i´ve got blk mrkt badaboom bars,feel pretty good(got over my aluphobic phase from using syntace before lol,just change them more frequently now) theyre 76mm,have 9°back/4° upsweep. hot tip:german dealer "hibike.de":20 euros,yay edit:i agree ns proof feel great,too. i find those jitsie bars quite interesting,and getting shims would be no problem,whats the weight of them?
  16. song of the uci round one:dave brubeck quartet"take five" lol
  17. the harder the contest conditions,the more honourable the winning places,no? i´ve seen unsponsored streetriders going at their limits in worse conditions,for fun! this is why we are recognized as lycra gays in the bike world,top riders do the dying swan like a ballerina instead of man up theirselves. saying that as a never-ever-pro-rider though,but its my way of seeing this...at least one could give his best,winner or not at the end of the day its mor than enough money the guys are going home with in elite i´d guess whats next,someone getting high insurance for his forward foot like one football guy did?
  18. used them for about a week,then changed back to 05 maggie. they leaked at the piston. with the new carbotecture lever body(the cylinder is one piece with it)the whole body including the cylinder is bending slightly when braking hard,letting the piston "scratch" at its surface. i´d rather get normal maggie slaves with some third party levers like tensile tocco,than ever will be touching the 2011 maggie again. i mean,ONE week,thats weird! but thats my personal experience,others do well with them...
  19. heard of the imaginate series euan beaden is doing?
