  1. I would like to go bigger on drops, but I always feel like i,m going to hurt my self if I go higher than 5foot. So does anyone know if their is something like exercises to strenghten the body so that I can absorb more the shock during drops?

  2. No, the geo is what I prefer but I was more thinking that for the price, it would have been nice to have something better quality like a hope stem instead of a trialtech witch is good but not as hope.... But anyway it doesnt come with one..

  3. Ok so here are some pics of the bike itself next to the arcade!

    So the skye vs the arcade, what a hard choice, well i'd say that after having tried the skye, it rides pretty nice but in my opinion the front is way too low so it doesnt ride as well as the arcade and that the low bb makes it weird for back wheel moves. In other words if the skye stock came with higher bars it would definitly make it more enjoyable.

    In terms of look.. Well the skye has a point, the paint is sooo nice! For those who know what i'm talking about, the paint has a plasti dip texture witch is pretty weird. So i'd say that the arcade doesnt stand againts the skye with is matt paint witch is still pretty nice but not has nice has the matt shiny ish blue of the skye.

    For the parts, the skye comes fitted with a complet hope set, hubs, brakes,stem, headset.. And the arcade with just the hubs and brakes. I found that for the price the arcade should have come with the hope headset and stem. The skye also comes with the famous danny mac continental tires witch are really nice and I need to say feels amazing! Suprizingly they are the same size of my hollyrollers (2.4) but they look bigger, like a 2.5... Even if they are danny's signature models it would have been nice to see them on the arcade... I hope they will be available soon!

  4. I dont know why but when fix my tention on my arcade, if I screw both bolt on each side equally the wheel isnt straight, so to get it straight I need to scree alote more one side keeping the other side bolt almost loose, i've almost lots my tentionner two times, and I was really lucky last time as it did felt but I mirraculusly found it back after stoping searching for it? Is anyone else having this problem?!?!
