  1. All of you who are sayign they have no power and grab, obviously have the 6" version, james has the 8" one.

    they used to be mine on my dh'er, and they are mint.

    boiling the pads gets rid of the oil, brake fluid, etc. boil them on the hob for like 20 mins.

    I have a 6" version on my street bike, it does not hold as well or fee las grabby, but it is ample for street, hold fine whilst abubacaring rails, etc, holds fine on the coing at skateparks too.

    P.S. Oh and james, it was you who got shit on the pads, because it was fine when I gave it to you.

  2. Man you have to see some of the random shit we have made at halfords! I was also backwheeling out counter, got big bash guard marks in it now :lol:.

    Ive made numerous robots, I made one of those little ele tric cars into a tank, made an air compressed un, skate ramps for mini bikes, inc a foam pit (Y) and loads of random hats and people made out of those latex gloves, etc.

    You have to be there to appreciate it iall, we dont have a box desk/workshop thingy ne more, jsut some random wiggly worm shaped desk, which is utter bollox.

  3. I know a BMXer who doesn't do anything big who made his Shadow Conspiracy chain fall apart in about a week... Avoid methinks! Also, on the KMC front, check out the 'Eastern' Kool chains for sale on BMX-shop. They are also KMC Kools but only £6.99.

    Oops. osrry i did not realise eastern used the 710 as well :"> Ive got the eatson 510hx u see,

  4. Pretty sure thats not the case Stu?  :turned: Dont KMC claim breaking load of 1300kg for the Kool, and 1100kg for the 510?

    I also had a K510HX, and killed it pretty quickly - sheared a plate in half.

    Might be something to do with them being used on BMX instead of MTB?

    Yeah i spose :- I did not think of that, It might be because the links are bigger they catch on walls more when grinding, etc. maybe.

  5. Cant wait for mine to be done :D ordered it a week ago.

    Looks mint, are you using the 4 pc forks? I opted for the 2 pc because the 4 pc sound ugly, if there anything like tha planet X forks that is :P

    Cant wait to see it built up :D Can't wait for mine either :D:D Arg, I so want mine NOW!
