  1. Is it possible for me touse a 20" tube for a 19" wheel? Save buying a new tube or a repair kit?

  2. Feel like I have hit a progression barrier recently, I don't try half the stuff I used to.. Nice weather come at me!

      Im the same. My riding on my 24" has gone downhill recently. I was going bigger and smoother on my Ozonys 26" a few months ago than I am now...

      Theyre almost exactly the same, differences being the finish on them and some geo tweaks.

      And also the new BB tool?! £70?!?! Are they for real, could make one on a lathe for about £30 tops!

      SamKidney

  4. Next on the list, TT Forks, TT high rise bars, matching front wheel and a new headset, works out @ around £250, hmmm, even though I have the money, I am waiting till after Christmas.

      I actually don't like my TT highrise bars...

      CalRobbo341

      Roll them towards yourself! No longer getting a wheel, as I don't really need one, van always spray it if I need to!

  5. I think I want a pure compy type build when I get that kind of money, singlewalled rims, dual disc, carbon and ti, ect.

      Magura's and cousts are a winner!

    3. CalRobbo341

      CalRobbo341

      Well I have no meny atm, so staying with out any brakes for a while, and no magura mounts on my comp so would be impossible, if I wanted to.

    4. SamKidney

      SamKidney

      Ah your wanting to keep the same frame.

      Discs are still great.

  6. Another status, so what?! The location where I love to ride and is private is my sisters cadets thing, she just told me i'm not allowed there because of insurance, fuuuu! 'Bout time I man up and ride streets!

      Thin wall, then theres a bit of pavement, then 1 electrical box, then another, I imagine it would hurt... I would never do a rail, brakeless

    4. Miss-Higgy

      Miss-Higgy

      My input, just ride your bike.. If it looks fun hop about on it!

  7. £5 an hour, 5 days a week, 8am-4pm, I should be cruising in my car with my new bike in no time at all! Actually can't wait!

      Whats wrong with normal 4:3?

    4. CalRobbo341

      CalRobbo341

      I just dislike it, I will still make a video if it is, but it just looks alot more professional if it's 16:9, also if you are wondering why I haven't tested it, I have no usb cable for it, forgot to pick it up!

      He's a stunner! I used to have Burmese, but I think when we're ready for more cats they'll be Siamese!

      Uhm, okay? I was thinking that, but by the time I had got everything of of him, I think I would be too tempted to ask him to weld it p for me :p

    4. Miss-Higgy

      Miss-Higgy

      do that then ^_^

  13. So I bought some new shoes, mainly for trials (http://www.tkmaxx.com/view-all-shoes/canvas-trainers/invt/27355969) I haven't worn them once for riding, too afraid of wrecking them aha!

      If they had a Vans label on they would probably be £60

    3. CalRobbo341

      CalRobbo341

      Most likely, main reason why I bought them as they were cheap and not Vans, although they were meant to be for riding and not general walking? :L

    4. CalopS

      CalopS

      I'm a bit weary of using shoe like that for trials. Looks too easy to roll your ankle.

  14. Seriousky don't know why I don't own a bmx instead of a trials.. Nowhere okay to ride and all I seem to do is streety lines :|

    1. CalRobbo341

      CalRobbo341

      Think it's time I put brakes back on, that or just build up my confidence or ride at silly o clock so no one will see me :)

    2. CalRobbo341

      CalRobbo341

      Don't care if it looks like I am talking to my self, I also need to buy some new shoes as my platforms have eaten my shoes.

  15. Just finished installing AutoCAD 2009, so confusing compared to the older version I used :|

    1. SunnyBoy

      SunnyBoy

      It's all about SolidWorks :P

    2. CalRobbo341

      CalRobbo341

      My step-dad got me the one I am currently running, so I may have to invest in SolidWorks!

    3. SunnyBoy

      SunnyBoy

      Luckily I get a free student copy of newest version as part of my degree, it's definitely worth a try!

  16. Sean Watson is one crazy rider!!

    1. CalRobbo341

      CalRobbo341

      Can't believe him/anyone else hasn't put his GET entry up yet..

    2. Rob.
    3. Pete.M

      Pete.M

      Nick Cooke hasn't put his here either. Both awesome videos! I'm guessing they are waiting for the GETcreative blog to list them.

  17. How old is Pavel?

      What the kusmir?!

      Could i please borrow a gun?

  21. Sooo, I got the apprenticeship! Save up for a new build or get my driving knocked off of the list? Bear in mind there is a nice 106 on my drive not being used?

    1. isitafox

      isitafox

      to be honest I'd get your driving test passed and out the way, will open up a new world of riding locations for you

    2. CalRobbo341

      CalRobbo341

      I'm putting so much towards getting to and from the apprenticeship, some for a build (maybe bigger wheels) and then a big chunk towards lessons!

  22. Sidehopping over bars/poles is so much diffrent than hopping onto things, need to get my tucks in to shape, as I have just found out.. As did the bus full of people :')

    1. Miss-Higgy
