Bionic Balls

Damn..i thought he was really tall! maybe the bike is just ridiculously small..... Marc Caisso looks tiny, and craig scott (no offence) doesn't exactly look heavily built....they are just sooo bendy! adam

Ok....well this is kinda weird but i want to see if height and hop height are related. I am 5ft 8" (and can hop 40" high. therefore: 40/68 * 100= 58.8%~60% is that around average? adam PS: how tall is Benito? If he can hop ~60" and is around 6ft 4" (guessing here...) then he can hop ~79% of his body height!!

AVS video converter...someone on here showed me it and it is the ultimate (deals with mov, avi, mpg, wmv, rm etc)....try a search! adam

YOu've had it for ages....and here's just a guess- you've never cleaned it properly? what do you expect? If you ride through crap (aka trials), then any hub or freewheel is gonna need some servicing! even profile and hope.... They are a piece of PIE to take apart and rebuild- you can't even lose the bearings cos they are pressed in place. stop whining! they are worth every penny! adam

That looks alot like my ENO.....to save a new topic- where can i get new pawls for an ENO (trials) freewheel? cheers, adam

I'd really reccommend a DX32 (from whoever..onza, megamo etc.)- they last ages!! adam

same here...i only just got out of school at 3.30 today so i couldn't be bothered to ride in the end. see you sunday....half term next week!! adam

i think "light oil" on the springs and pawls is the recommended....grease up the bearings while you're at it though... adam

mine is 1055 with giant forks.. if you've got an old onza frame that you broke (it could happen...), then getting a woodstock on crash replacement is sweet as! got mine for £150 (frame only) adam

i went from an lx hub to a fixed megamo wheel, with tensiles and the trials ENO...that was around a year ago. The freewheel still works fine and it feels stiff and strong, and gives me more bash clearance. Compared to alot of other choices...it is much cheaper and definitely worth every penny! adam

just informal questions about me and what i like...apart from bikes...i got a free lunch too adam

never thought i'd say this....can someone eengoedidee it? adam

this october coming...chemical engineering (got places at both)- good luck! adam

Well reading some of these posts....i'm lucky in some ways- sweden sounds crap...and cold!! And not so lucky in others... I live in a cul-de-sac and i managed to get my next door neighbour (steve-o...in new members somewhere) into this bike shiz about a year after i did....so there's always a curb to mess about on outside my/his house- we havent got any palettes together yet...We normally get out for about 1 hour after school ~twice a week (wensdy/thursday usually)- although there isnt much to ride in that range....at the weekend we mix it up a bit- EBTC comps now and then, london even less (dunno why..), chelmsford sometimes, mainly brentwood though since it is in riding distance. There are a few riders to meet around brentwood (dan, james and dennis) and we see them most saturdays actually (well recently anyway). Sundays are usually spent at comps or at the local industrial estate practising sidehops on palettes- we'll get bored of it oneday but i really like it when i get another inch out of myself..... :wink2: anyways...uni next year so i don't know what my riding will be like- i really hope i can keep it up...it's unbelievable how much time i spend either on TF or something bike related- i dont know what i'd be doing otherwise....freerunning? anyways..i'm getting upset..and tired. adam

Does this not include the 26" models? Please somebody say they've price cut ALL of their tyres..... :P adam

i'm in the same "boat"......my mum doesn't seem to believe that i'll be able to take it with me- this topic will hopefully change her mind.. :P i'm applying to imperial (london) or bath....i would like to ride wherever i go adam

did that freewheel (same internals as this hub) ever come out? adam

see you there! woo adam

We went to set up today and the sections look pretty mean for you red and yellow riders (but we ride blue so it always looks mean....) especially if it rains, maaaa.:-P adam

which player can play *.tar files? cheers, adam

hell yeah!! so far seen some crazy stuff! This is worth a permanent place on a VCD... adam

that was me......i did a backtap adam

hi luke!! i'll see you in blue................... adam

Just some crashes i've put together for amusement.....not very edited at all! Features me (on the giant/woodstock) steve (steve-o on here) (on the t-raptor/t-rex) dennis (koxx xtp) james (monty) please laugh!! adam eengoedidee (avi- divx file)
