    Hemvägen

    Really really good video. Just badass lines Flipp. The other rider where really good too! Just a question, where did you get the name to this video from? Then word/name "hemvägen" is on Swedish and means pretty much like: "The way home". And YES I'm Swedish
  2. Old school bike haha The bike looks to be in a great shape. Do you like riding trials? About the headset play, every onza bike i've been testing have a small play in the headset. Don't know why. I also had it on my onza pro. But I got rid at it when I where changing top cap and star nut. I changed to another star nut and when i put the stem on the fork (without any top cap on) I hit the stem's lover part really hard with a rubber hammer, and put on the top cap, and it worked! Don't know if it where because of the top cap, but shouldn't be. Just un-screw the top cap nut, and hit the stem pretty hard with a rubber hammer, and tighten the top cap bolt again. might work.
  3. I saw it somewhere on here that a guy used a Diamond cutting disc for grinding that looked like your's, he said that it would hold grinds forever and just is the best disc... Just can't remeber the topic. Try it on a old wheel, see if it works
  4. Yeah I actually DID listen to you guys. When I where out riding i realized that it where a really weird/f*cked up idea, haha. The topic where only a thought, as I did mention in the edit. I'm going to laugh at this topic in about 1 month, and yes you're totally right: It is often better to listen to older people, which i'd learn't the hard way... WIlliam
  5. I think sepang bronze is a really cool colour especially with a black fork, like you have here's a pic, only founded it on a car
  6. When I said it, I meant PERFECTLY straight. Even all the bike shops around here says the same. But I/they might be wrong. Im pretty new to building wheels, but my closest build is around .03 mm with a shitty wheel
  7. Always heard that you can't really get it 100% straight. Is it just to have a patience of steel? Yea forgot to add that one
  8. Agreeing with the user above me, why have you grinded your rear rim? I know you don't even have magura mounts on the frame...
  9. Wheel building is really simple, you just follow a certain pattern. You can't really get a wheel 100% straight. But after building the wheel, using trialbeginner's guide, just go around every spoke and tighten it half a turn, and just repeat until you have a wheel with tight spokes. Hope this helps somewhat...
  10. Oven worked, not the boiling. The brake pad sucked and sounded like a turtle... haha so it's time for plan B: Buy new TNN pads
  11. Here in Sweden people would really care about it, and just threat me bad, and don't really forgive me... Just how many, not everybody under age 20 seems to be like here. Yupp Mark has right, and I where wrong. Only one other rider here in Stockholm so not going to be a group ride.
  12. Hope you had red my edit. but yea I get it! They are 10 years older than me, but I have a small relation to him, but im just going to drop it.
  13. So now it's time for my original account. I had heard about this guy before, but I had forgotten his name. The guy I'm talking about is "janson" who is a SM member on here. You can look it up. I'm also Swedish and think it would be a cool thing to host a memorial ride here. Which I have said 3 times now, I think. The mans full name is "Robert Janson" which someone on here might recognize. Robert had a friend who were named "Peter Backgren", Peter made a trip down to england and rode with Dan Grey, Sam Wheeler, Jack Meek and a few others in the south of England. Someone on here must recognize this?! I also found a video on him and Peter. EDIT: I really really hope that I aren't offending anyone! I hope that the persons in qustion don't get mad at me for publicing their names. I'm sorry if I had, hope I didn't 'stepped over the border'...
  14. Ahhhhh I hate to live in Sweden...
  15. What the fork?! And yes I mean fu*k
  16. hahah Do you know if i should boil it, or put it in the oven?
  17. Yeah I know. that's where I partly stole my idea from.
  18. Im getting CNC ones, be-green or LGM. Just wan't to try making my own dual compound plastic backed pad haha
  19. Hi, how do i remove my pad material from a pplastic backing, I would like to re-use the backing as im trying something special... Should I cook it for a couple of minutes or how do i do it?
  20. Yeah I have some lithium grease at my dads work, but this where only for now so I could ride for a hour or two.
  21. Thanks mate, it's all fixed now, and working really good, so far The vaseline worked really good to, so thanks for your help mate, really appreciate it. Have a nice day/ William
  22. OK, ther's a side with rubber things, and a side with plastic. So I should sand the plastic part? Im not a retard, just wan't to double check mate!
