  1. i need one of those giants. everytime i sidehop now i tuck the bike up so close that i keep cutting my leg just above my ancle, really hurts after a few :bunny:
  2. i bought one for the rear and it looked the nuts was light as hell, but it was a bit tight for my frame i only rode it twice as the brakes where so tight it was hard to get used to but i was impressed, i think they are severely weakened due to the holes drilled in the centre's, but im sure it ll be a sweet rim i was happy for the time i had it.
  3. wouldn't a hair dryer ruin parts of the paint??
  4. the python is a lovely frame and rides pretty tidy. Havent rode the 20" echo properly yet.
  5. hot water or petrol or just peel as much as you can off then wash the glue off. many different ways dude.
  6. like JT says just download them all til you get bored. cause they are all crazy.
  7. that sounda a bit gay dont think its the pads, just the wheel allignment just dish the wheel over a bit buddy if it is well off and noticably off send it back with a nice letter :huh:
  8. The council were taring thr roads near us and left a mound of tar at the side of the road all warm so we left it dry a bit till it was still shiny but cool and rolled it up in a plastic bag. It wasn't the hard stuff it was the stuff they put between the hard stuff in the road that joins them together the darker stuff.
  9. its quite fun and quick to give the king a good old clean. they sound so good after cleaning them thoroughly with a toothbrush. Its easier than u think just remove the wheel use a thin object like a flat head screw driver and a 5mm allen key and use it to open the opposite side of the cassette by turning the axle part anti clockwise. once out just twist and pull the casette part out spray some good old wd-40 in and enjoy cleaning away. make sure its all dry once done i use a hair dryer for performance :P and just push and twist the casette side back in and tighten it all back up once everything has been cleaned and de greased. Then just spin the hub and enjoy the noise it makes, job done :huh: good posting buddy.
  10. awesome think of how high you could spring the front up on with them shocks. Just hope they dont break. i used to ride with sidehops on the front used to be great for getting up high obstacles but for technical moves and other moves dont think they would be suitable :huh:
  11. the actual tread on the hot s lasts forever lol iv had them for years and they just dont wear on the top just the sidewalls shread easy as pants. so i need a real thick sidewall.
  12. hey im running a hot s on the rear at the moment. the tread is fine, but the sidewalls are really thin and keep shredding. Any help on a beefy tyre with a strong sidewall? Thanks James. :)
  13. always dude, but by simple maintenance it will be gone. Simply remove your crank and take the bottom bracket out remove all grime and dust and then grease all threads slightly because if you place too much on the threads it will cause the bottom bracket to come loose quite often, so you will end up tightening it all the time. Then fit tightly (not to tight) then wipe away all excess grease left around the edges as this will capture dust and you will end up with the same problem. Clean and grease your crank bolts and tighten everything up as tight as possible without over tightening. Keep checking it for the first week to make sure that the bottom bracket nor crank bolts have come loose as you have applied grease which could make them move, but it should be fine Job done good luck mate.
  14. his skills have progressed a lot since manifesto aswell amazing to see a different style and a well edited dvd, bit short but hey better to be short and good. He does come across as a rough rider, but i think that for one he can afford to throw it about and teo you can only do the moves he does by putting a lot of pressure on the bike.
  15. where are they all. They just seemed to vanish they were the best street team back in the day now they all sponsored and in different teams.
  16. wait a minute how the hell is he validated for talking like that (N) you know what i mean mole cause the riding was so good.
  17. i love the koxx team riding, they are the bosses, but you gotta get behind the home team and zoo are the leaders at present . Ilove their styles and riding, if you dont you dont, but i wouldnt put them down guys cause at the end of the day boring or not the moves are big and impressive.
  18. its on that crapy engodie thing mate i got 2.2 modem and it was running at about 11kb a sec last night when i was downloading it.
  19. what you on about everything was spelt correctly yeah i was getting worked up at how good the riding was.
  20. no just cause the moves were so big it was like wow that was impressive i was getting excitted.
  21. i think it is fair to say that craig lee scotts new video is crying material fair play he has got some guts and skills pedle braking along rails, huge gaps, huge moves dangerous stuff it is mentally good. i was crying. What about you??
