  1. great riding, and nice style..
  2. HI proberly your chain is streching a bit, should go away after a few rides. (which chain is it?). if not check your chain tensioner's .I always check them after the hub is thightend down..(my rear wheel never moves..) im comming from a bmx back ground and the arcade just fit me perfect...Ive had Hex,and fourplay before the arcade and like them all..but the arcade is just top mint for me.. If i where youi would give it some time.. what stem/bars are you using ? maybe a pic could help me give you advise on bike setup. /stefan
  3. done the same as you 100's of times..i find that if i get my butt further back(not down but back) before i jump(preload) i land more controlled on the front wheel. just my 2cents...

    Barspins and Trials

    Yes i agree flyout is the easiest...i starede doing them in a small manuals first, this lets you learn to pinch the seat and catch the bars correct...if you have the weight far back you can ride away from even the worst catch...do them of curbs just rolling, after that flyin and last bunnyhop...
  5. just great...love the dedication in your sidejumps...Great flow and the nosewheelies are spot on...Awsome keep it up..
  6. got it loading...always rain where you guys are...loved the fakie manual
  7. the link is not loading for me...
  8. ill ride any of them )...but the blue is mint
  9. saint all the way, or zee...superb hold..as far as the rotor in using shimano xt ice, i find the rotor not be as important as the caliper...
  10. great riding and bike control...., and Mr tumble is cool...
  11. hi yes you will walk allright, mine just locked up or gave away before my surgery..And anytime it does either, the risk of the ACL injury getting worse is there...
  12. First off you will get back.....I've had two acl''s done and it takes a while for the knee to get back in shape. Some do it in 3 months other a year or two...but patience is your friend...light walking, road bikes and straight leg lifting is you friend the first few months...do rush it, you gotta live with the knee the rest of your life.... And good luck with rehab, let us know how you go...
  13. is that hope F20 pedals ?

    No fancy editing

    Hi just some good old messing about in the park...no real trials in it... http://www.pinkbike.com/video/392005/
  15. Sweet with some nice combo''s. ..like the pedal grind
  16. Remove the spacers, and get the cups all the way in. Then add spacers on the axel, like on a bmx crank...works perfect....don't remember the size....good luck
  17. Slx cranks are okay, but in my optic saint's are superior..the steel insert for the pedal threads and over all strength of the saint would make them my choice. ...shorter crank arms gives less power, but offer more front tyre clearance for barspins and x-ups...so it has its pros/cons...
  18. 38 here and still riding 2-3 times a week...
  19. +1 for goodridge, i would even say they are better than stock shimano, due to the fact they are a braided steel hose.
  20. Cool video, seen like a lot of nice places to ride. Im visit in a months time, can wait to get there.
  21. great location, great style, and smooth riding
  22. Hi i use a xtr 22t on my saints(no problem) have been using slx 22t in the past no problem...Up front the Alu rings seems to hold up okay 6-8 months at least...chain is kmc 610hx, on the rear i use guesset wide sprocket (all other ive tried seems to dig in a lot..)...if you dont like the shimano rings blackspire make a "mono velocity" ring for single speed (CRC used to have them.)
  23. Liked the last nose manual thing....cool video and lots of different spots/styles
