  1. glad to see people are coming around to my thinking! Glad you like it, but a booster will make the holding power truly epic!
  2. I still enjoy it as much as ever too! I think its because I try things that come into my head when riding rather than just sidehops or gaps. Mixing things up is the key!
  3. Its one of my fave places ever! Won't be going though, will not be going though, will be too snowy I recken
  4. I am 25, started when I was 14, pretty much always ridden stock. Also dabbled in xc, bmx, dh
  5. as I keep saying...what advantages will it have? wont tap as well as 26", won't bunnyhop as well as 20" Jack of all trades, master of non.

    Snow

    plenty of snow at my house, I live up a slope from the road and its impossible to get to my house that way, I have to make a detour and go another way. on another note...drifting is fuuuun!
  7. I am also sat there for maybe....2 mins? If you are there long enough to read, why not just go when you are ready?
  8. the usual methods seem to work for me...spray paint, hair spray ect how old are your grips? some of the old ones were fractionally oversized and were a bit of a bitch to stick.
  9. not much else to say as most people have covered it. I think a lot of people don't like vees when they have tried them is because they are comparing them directly with a magura. To clear some things up..... A Vee is not a magura, it acts differently a vee has more modulation and not as much bite as a maggie a vee has LOTS more hold than a maggie a vee is more powerful a vee has more adjustment a vee is heavier with adaptor and booster, but lighter on a vee specific frame than a maggie a booster improves the hold of a vee 10 fold
  10. just saying that if thomas has one, then hopefully they will exist soon! I know I'll have one if they become available!
  11. I am a trialtech foam grip lover, not too soft, not too hard, don't rip, don't hurt my hands, don't get slippery....WIN!
  12. 26" inspired you say...how nice!
  13. mechanically it will work, but with MUCH* less power *meaning such bad power an anchor may be a better option
  14. nope, thats all true. but a 26" inspired? IF ONLY!
  15. my dislike for RATM cannot be put down in words! I vote for this to be number one! Youtube Video -> Original Video Sung by non other than Leonard Nimoy!
  16. yeah, I know what you mean, I am after the same thing, I don't get on with 24" wheels.
  17. seen worse, they look nicer than the first proto pictures that were out. Still prefer frames with a ore traditional look though (with a seat as well lol)

    Isis Bb

    I think its pretty much identical, but the alloy bolts/cups make the echo lighter.
  19. 17psi with a conti rain king (normally 20psi with maxxis) 40 psi on my Inspired
  20. I tried it a while ago and my headset would come loose withing a few mins riding.
  21. I've got a ti BB spindle in my BMX - ti isn't just a lightweight compy thing... This was OBM, btw.
