  1. Hi ive used goodridge braided hoses from chainreactioncycles (they ship world wide). Have only good things to say about it...my lever/brake dosnt feel slow...on the other hand you get rid of the plastik hoses that ALWAYS end up leaking after a short time(think its from spinning the bars a lot). just my 2cents...
  2. No no problem with mine, but I do tightend them a bit after the wheel is in place and tightend...
  3. Got my first ride in yesterday, and its a great thumbs up from here...love the responsiveness of it...the bike feels light despite frame weight is 2525g and fork is 1118g...
  4. Just put mine together an rode around the block...seems solid and fast...nice geo kinda Alive and nimble feeling...love it...
  5. Here's a fast tip.... Lock rear break(don't let go)...place your self alongside a wall, a short distance from it (10-20cm) be ready to lean sideway up agains the wall(let shoulder/handelbar lean against it...). Find your balance without touching the wall, and start leaning back til your front wheel leaves the ground...to find the actual balance point lean against the wall... Spend 5-10 min to find it, and the try it rolling...good luck, and hope I made sense..

  10. All this talk about price, where do they sell the damn thing? And does anybody know a price or are just guessing here?
  11. Its strong enough for tension, but bends/breaks easy and hangs fairly low....

  14. Does anybody have problems Wrapping the front rotor, due to gap to front etc.. ? currently in running avid clean sweep but those saint look sweet..
  15. I just want the damn bike.....in my bmx days 74 used to be the shit...sure same would work on 24"...steeper is okay to
  16. Hi just a quick question on reliability of an inspired fork (Im not trying to give a bad reputation to inspired, i love my Hex and the rest of thier products!!! (Just thought i would set the straight.)) I've been running an Inspired Team fork for a little over a year, and i am skeptical on an Aluminium fork lasting longer, is that just old superstition or do you guys replace the fork regularly? Before i was running a DMR trailblade (heavy, but strong as ....) I do all kinds of riding on it street, ramp and trial. Its mainly riding ramps that has me worried, coming down from airs landing front wheel first feels kinda flexing... Thanks in advance for good replies...
