RIP dude. really sad to hear. really, everyone should wear helmets at all times... =/
-
alright.
me and johan went out for a ride today, some good street. couldn't really keep it very serious, and edited it all this night. music is a bit extreme, in all ways, one heavy and one very calm song, riding is quite decent?

may we see some measurements of the geometry? i think it looks very well done, but i still think something loks wrong. seems very short and low, with a silly high stem, bent back forks (probly in order, they just look bent) in a frame that looks to have a slack headangle. might be pictures though, it looks cool with the chrome and white

-->QUOTE(joe b @ Jul 4 2006, 12:39 PM) ←Lots of wheelswap/front wheel move pictures. Almost too many
. However, technical riding is the best. Nice one... 
Cheers,
Joe.
haha, yeah, all photos are taken down my local town, and all rail moves were just going well that day. this was the first time i got to ride those thin black rails, there used to be some dodgy wooden ones there before.
Tyre pressure?
no, seriously, both tyres were a bit flat that day. Got good grip and feel on the rails though, far easier than with high pressure.thanks

didn't the narrower spacing between the dropouts on the monty compared to a standard bmx hub cause any problems for you with bending the dropouts apart?
Monty= 106mm (meant to be...)
King hub=110mm

Last year Dani and Cesar had bikes without Magura mounts, I guess these new frames will have them when they go in production

It's Swedish, so leave the Germans out of this
The guy who posted the pics on OTN admits that he is german though... and RB is based in Slovakia. Where are the Swedes in this discussion Mark? Some people over here has got them, imported i believe. Where in Sweden have you found them?
Edit: ok, apparently a guy from Finland at Best Brakes is taking care of the Swedish market too. nevermind

Why did megamo equip dual disks come with them radial front then??
My megamo wheelset of said bike had them radial 1 side infact
It had 2x or 3x on the disc side, and radial on the non-disc side, right?
-
good one mike and everyone else(Y) makes me sad though, i want to come and ride there soo bad
-
thanks, and yes Joe i've got an BB7 and it holds well. i reckon the rotor has got some shit on it, but it's still good.

He's Fred Savage, just on a different account. Aren't many of the VIZ products just re-branded Koxx stuff anyway? Also, what does NSE stand for? Good for everyone who wants Viz stuff that you take care of it, you apparently know what your doing

awesome! Ive been trhinking about that for ages, just didn't want the whole camera sitting on my shoulder, or something like that. Shame it's really expensive to get one of those remote camera thingys, just the lens and CCD in a small thing, and a cord (or wireless sender) to the cam itself so it can save the footage. Would be cool to have a play around with one of them.

Sweet video, Peter! Really good editing and, definately, amazing riding
What i want to know is 'When were you in England?' and 'Why the f**k did i not know about it?!' .I remember that time too, in Sheffield, Chris! We all got our names taken by a copper who thought he was God, himself... EVEN PETER!
Cheers,
Joe.
Thanks joe and everyone else
. This was all filmed during the Easter holidays. I didn't really announce that I'd be going over, mainly because I never knew where I'd be riding. The plan I had was depending on other people and stuff, so I couldn't promise to show up anywhere 
I ended up riding that small comp in Wales, Liverpool, Carlisle, and of course Penrith... That was one crazy day in Sheff, didn't we actually get banned from the city!? Kicked off everywhere 
( Next time I wan't to the central/northern parts, Leeds, Sheff, Liverpool, Brum, Manchester, and around there.)
-
Thanks a lot ^^
Yeah, would be cool to go to Norway some day, Erik.

So who's gonna bring up Ryan Leech's nut-craker-frame-failed-rail-gap in Evolve first I wonder...
Rich
oh my god, that's a classic one. I laughed loads at it, but also felt ill thinking of how much that must have hurt
-
Thanks for the good comments so far. yeah, penrith is cool for riding, expecially the castle
-
keep downloading it guys
it's well worth it. i'm really happy with how it turned out, not a too serious vid but not completely weird. the riding should be DECE too awwww -
I haven't checked here for a while, but just to make what I wrote last time a bit more clear, I'll add:
so in thoery its like saying this 3:2 ration on a Try-All freewheel will be MEGA!!!
Yes. it would, if you had it on the rear with a 27t front cog... THEN you will be able to use the mechanical advantage, the whole gearing bit.
This thread is going down, not too interesting now. Wait for the product to be available, try it out, judge it...

defo can't put cartridge bearings instead of caged or loose ball ones ^^
-
cool. for a short guy that bike will be a beast
-
oww my riding in that section was soo shit
at least the roll along the log was alright. meh. good of you to get a video up -
yess neil, mint riding. All moves are massive, nicely done. Hooks are defo world class. I've always thought music like that works well.
