I've just ordered from them,not received them yet but hopefully.

Ordered the Stiffys today from the German site, thanks again for the link. 123 posted, not bad. Just waiting on the hope hubs to come in stock at tartys and il be sending the rims in to be built up. Cheers for the help.

I use 75ml in 5 litres for my gasgas, assuming u mean a trials motorcycle.
-
Yeah didn't think of that, can they be used with rim brake?
-
Which of the Spank rims is best for a rear rim brake, on a fourplay, it's my friends bike, spike or stiffy?
-
@ali what brand spokes and nipples do you recommend, in black?
-
Thanks for the advice, and link to the rims.
-
I am going to get the Stiffys in Black, with black hope hubs front and rear, black spokes and I'm thinking either purple or titanium nipples if you can get them?
What brand spokes black?
What brand nipples?
-
They are all Spank that's the brand, do you mean the spikes?
It will be between the Stiffy 40mm and Spike 35mm, weight is not an issue.
-
Which are the best in that list?
-
They have definitely got Subrosas
-
The link doesn't work and I can't find Stiffys available in 24", 32 hole, 40mm wide, anywhere in UK. I have emailed Spank and may have sorted some, I will post the outcome.
-
Are subrosa rims 30mm wide? Is that not a bit thin?
-
Hi
I have the standard wheelset found on the inspired fourplay pro 2012, I want to upgrade to hope hubs front and rear, I have been looking for rims and really like the look of Spank rims but can't find any, but I came across these, New Halo SAS, 24", 32 hole, 36mm wide. Are these suitable or am I better off using my inspired rims?
Thanks

Mine is sometimes jumpy when editing and playing back on laptop, windows movie maker was far worse than the gopro studio app. But as said it is ok once exported, and played back on my laptop, tv & phone. I use 1080 60fps on a hero 3.
Also use VLC player will play almost anything

I know some good Avids that will last many winters and have some incredible hold - BB7. Also bite is pretty good (not like maguras of course) and there are even not bad modulation. I liked it more than vee's and hopes race. Can't compare to trials hopes because I don't want to buy this shitty trial zones with standard hose (Tech lever + stainless hose FТW! but it's impossible to buy brand new now unfortunately). But I liked hope rather for cool and "armored" look and the fact they are pretty resistant to impacts and more reliable than many other hydraulic brakes (all the maggies and echos obscenely fast starts to leak because of it's stupid construction and bad dust/dirt resistance). Shimano brakes are not an option if you have some -5 deg and colder weather, because it may cause leakage.
You can buy the hope brakes that come on the arcade, tech 3 levers, braided hoses with trial zone calipers, just bought a set £145 each brake and £28 each disc, got them through tartys.

I have one send me an address and it will be on it's way.
