    Powerballs..

    Amateur, I just give it a flick with my finger to get it going. I hold it in my weak hand then press quite hard at the edge and flick downwards.
  2. I only noticed that about an hour ago ha ha.
  3. Yes but when someone dies from ripping the top of their forks off Tartybikes would get the blame. The best thing to do is have the right length steerer in the first place.
  4. You wont find a better new bike for the price than the zoo. The lads at Tarty have put a lot of thought into that spec and got it as cheap as possible with really good parts. I'd say go for the lynx and get a Trial-Tech booster on the rear.

    Powerballs..

    Just got my power ball out the draw. I haven't had a go on it for ages and ages. My best was just over 12000 First go then and I've just got 12783. I'm going to try and break 13k.
  6. Yeah I think it will be fine for you mate. I'd go for it.
  7. It looks really chunky. Hopefully it will fit. Looking forward to seeing the pics and how well it works.
  8. Where has he asked for Echo lites? Why anyone would want to run anything other than a Z610 for a chain I'll never know. "Red" try-all rims are junk because they are really pink and look cack. Try-all rims in pretty much any other colour are fine. I was joking too by the way. Stop being such a gang of sensitive girls with sand in your vaginas. Edit: Another thing Echo/Zoo bars are disgusting and shit. I don't know why people like them.
  9. Nope just you. It's probably because you want shit stuff ha ha ha.
  10. What's the spec of your bike? Have you got any pics of it?
  11. Here's a picture of my biggest side hop here. I've only been riding for 20mins.
  12. So the same as Mikey then ha ha ha ha ha
  13. 26" Vinny, 24" Danny, 20" Benny.
  14. Your hub + http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=34 + http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=22 = A pretty much new hub. Worth over £150 I'd say. As it is though I'd say about £80.
  15. Go on be the first. Then when everyone realises its good you can say you started the trend.
  16. That's a good point but IF they were shit they wouldn't all be running them.
  17. You really can't compare the echo freewheels to the freehubs. The SL feels amazing its soooo positive and the clicks are totally unison all the pawls engage exactly at the same time. You can feel the strength of the springs just by moving the cranks. They are by far the best freewheels out. People seem to bum the ENO freewheel because all the parts are replaceable but for the price of one of them you could have 2 echo TR freewheels and they would last a lot longer. All the Tarty boys will say the SL is great and lets face it they know what they are talking about.
  18. Bingo. Imagine the edge of a wrapper. It's easier to tear it. This is what happens every time.
  19. Oh well if its 2 years old and second hand there's no point. I wouldn't worry about your new freewheel doing the same. Tensile/Onza seem to have sorted that little problem out.
  20. I'm sure there was a batch of Tensile free wheels with dodgy heat treating. Might be worth asking Onza if they will warranty it for you. You don't get if you don't ask.
  21. A man offered me some sweets if I got into his car once... I wont be doing that again.
  22. Quick tip to stop your HD axle cracking if you get one. Grind the teeth smooth.
  23. Ah great I hope it works for you.
  24. Glad it helped. The Z610 chains seem to stretch a lot less than any other chain out there so that might help you if the clamps still don't reach. What clamps did you go for by the way? the tryalls or the TNNs? If you got the try alls you might find it helps to file the back of the clamps flat too.
