    No Trophy for You!

    Love you style, and great riding...really enjoyable for me, sad to hear you are not enjoying it anymore...guess each has its time...
  3. Hi marg26 I would suggest a mix, the feeling of doing something properly is second to none so aim for perfect :-). But to get there one need to feel progress... Don't rush it just have fun with and you will improve. I personally have 3-4 moves i practice most(at any given ride) 1-2 i can do (8 out 10 times) one with a ratio of (4/10) and one (1/20). That way if i don't do the hardest/most difficult that day i will still feel good as some of the other stuff felt good.. Hope that helps, one 40+ to another :-) keep it up
  4. Duing a bit of skatepark riding on the inspired...
  5. In my opinion the correct way is to control the fakie by pedal pressure. So you want to release/pedal backwards to gain more speed, and breaking/slowing down again by applying a little more pressure...its a feeling thing hard to explain how much is needed. The lazy way is done by using the rear brake..
  6. ill got for 203mm rotor both sides...and +1 for the hubs

  8. Circle's it is...back to the parking lot...
  9. Hi wizards im stuck at around 1 - 1,5 backwards crankturns in my fakie manuals..seems to lose all speed and balance there...i try to apply pressure on the drivetrain all there way around, is that how you guys do it or do you pedal faster so there is no braking? Any pointers are appresiated thanks in advance

    For the Damaged Coda

    Super clean smooooth riding...and speedy recovery ..
  13. Hi and welcome... first off 25/16 maybe a bit hard, "normally" a 22/16 - 22/15 gear ratio is used on 24" bikes. As for longer stem, if you lower back feels "too bend" maybe a higher stem or a handlebar with more raise is better. If you are hitting the knees a lot on the handlebar, maybe a longer stem. As a rule of thumb: Always make your bike setup comfortable when standing on the bike both wheels on the ground, if it feels wierd or hard standing on the bike, modify it a bit. Good luck and have fun with it...If you need more help on bike setup a pic of you on the goat...
  14. brilliant, smooooth riding...

    Back on the hex

    10kg spot on...feels kinde nimble and solid...fork has a lot less flex conpared to the 2012 version...only done one ride so far but seems great.
  18. Had a 2012 hex, then an arcade, now back to the hex...feels great..
  19. 22/18 is sorta standard for 26"..gives a bit more clearin than the 28 you currently have.
  20. Any 4piston rear brake shimano, zee or saint, sram guide or magura mt5/7 would be parfekt. If mech brake is your thing i find avid bb7 are nice..a lower gearing would go a loooong way to make it more trialish...but most important ride it and have fun
