  1. Well I was just around my mates house and we were talking about me getting a new deck and he said "Hey do you want my old element?" i was like "YEAH !!!" So he gave me his old Element, not quite sure what one it is pink but is not "have a Bam day". It has red Fracture trucks, Lucky hardware, not sure on the bearings and it has Jessops grip tape. It is so kool. So I have been skating around on that for the past 4+ hours. It is so nice to flip and manuel.

    There are some lovely people in the world.

  2. Well I started off riding a Haro X2. It was lovely rode great and was the best £15 I have ever spent. It lasted me ages and the shit I put it through aswell. Then I sold that and got a DMR. That was great but I wanted something that was diffrent if you know what I mean. I sold that and then got a DK six pak. That had primo hula hop rear wheel, odessy bars the camo ones forgot what they are called now, and loads more. Once I got bored of that I then got a DFX which is so cool, and that is what I am riding now.

  3. So you happen to be selling a RB then Guy? For the sum of 20 brithish pund? If so I will have that off of you for deffinate.

    So I should go for the avid mechanical then. What is the differance between the avid ballbearing 7 and the 5? or is it only that you can get the 7 in 160 185 and 205 and the 5 only in 160. Sorry if all those numbers dont make sense.

    thanks

  4. Hey just woundering if any of you lot on here skate or have skated. I no some one on here blades but I mean skate board.

    I was woundering if any of you have any pictures of your decks?

    I am looking at getting a new setup but am not sure what deck to get. I was thinking tensionor trucks Rictor air core wheels Lucky hardware the naked lady griptape (a must have) But I am not sure what bearings at the moment.

    So I would like Pics of your decks and opinions on new decks. I was looking at Element and flip but I dont know anymore :o.

    I know this isnot a skate forum but that is why I put it in chit chat

  5. Right I have three Questions.

    Are Rb brake levers worth the money? I have heard that the seals go after a while though but these are fairly cheap to replace. Is it true that I can get them from Halfords? because I have asked Supercycles and thay have said that they have never dealt with the product but they advertise it on there web site? :P How much would they be? Areound the 60 mark?

    Secondly.

    I am after a new bash plate for my Woodman Team Pro but I do not have a clue what bash will fit them as the mounts for them are rather un-usuall.

    Thirdly.

    What am I best of gettin, some sort of hope that will most likely be used. Or a mechanical avid? Which will benew.

    If I get the avid I will be running it on my mod and I weigh 9 and a half stone so what size will be best?

    Thanks for your help pepoles. :o

  6. My friend on here RyanR has green Maggie hosing but he had to get it from ariva you know the buses. Then because it was to big he had to put the green hose over the original maggie hose as the ariva one was to big. I think this is what he has done, I have only had a quick glance at it.

  7. Yeah my bike does this aswell. But I have realised it is the cream crackered ACS on it. Because it cant be my BB as it is brand new it cant be mt pedals as they are bransd new and it cant be my cranks as they are gusse what? brand new. So it is the 2 year old freewheel with midding teeth.

  8. Well I am looking to buy a new 26" frame once my 20" is up and running but I am not to sure whatto go for. I can get a revell for 250 brand new but I have been told that they can bend by my mate who is sponseded by them. He himself has snapped one and bent two so they dont sound that reliable. Also I have been looking at the new T-Rex's They look nice and look quite reliable aswell. These are the first two that have poped into my head at the moment but any recomendationswill be apreciated.

    I am 6ft 2" aswell if that helps?

  9. Hmm that is rather beasty id have it in 20.5. I have never really had a "real" bmx if you know what I mean I have had loads of haro's (Y) because I could get them cheap. And now I have a DK and a DMR. Actually the DMR has the nicest geo ever 14mm rear axel (was 10) And it is actually realy nice. I have always thought about bmx but have always got distractedby Trials. That is rather a nice bike aswell.

    Tom

  10. Well I have two questions to ask so here I go.

    I am looking for a new BMX frame I was looking at something from KINK but as I do not ride that much a KINK would be a waste. I want something long and preferably street dirt and a lil bit of park (or whatever you call it now). I have looked at a few federals but I am told that they are quite heavy (I kniow weight is not the most important thing in BMX but I wouldnt mind a light bike). I am not planning on spending mega bucks but I would like something decent and good value for money.

    Also are ipods worth the money and are the mini ipods any good?Whatever thay are called. but are they as good as they are said to be?

    Thankyou for your patience and thankyou for your help.

  11. 1.)  What fluids had he previously used?

    2.)  Which "seal" went?

    3.)  What lever was he using?

    Plus, if it's a shit bleed, it'll feel shit anyway - just in case it was down to a crappy bleed...

    I dont have the slightest clue at all but I did not think it was posible but i was obviously wrong. You can use anything in them relley cant you? Could you even urinate in it? Not that I was to or anything :)" but it would be posible woundnt it? Or am I wrong here aswell? (Y)

  12. Bill on the forum did it and I did not personaly like the feel of it and his seals were knacered afeter that, but I was thinking of doing it but thought id rather spend £2.41 on a bottle of WD40 than pay out and go through the bother of replacing the seals so I used WD40.

    Meh what ever works for you.
