Ali C

I drive a red 106 with optional extras including a cracked windscreen and badgered gearbox

nice Stan! you dirty street basher!

valid

you need to try a good vee and realise its non gayness

caustic soda eats aluminium though, so its bound to do somthing nasty

nice will

looks very precise

hahaha, my bars are higher on my ashton looks nice though, I like it (as much as I can for an adamant ) I like the colour scheme, though I think a black bash or black cranks with gold bash would look cool. I like the tensioner too, I had a feel of tom riggs and the spring was really strong! seemed to work really well.

tilt the bars back and the bike will bunnyhop for you.

there are metal buckets

my fave tyre is a maxxis minion front 2.35 slow reezay dual ply.

ok, I went for it.....Ali C has a rear v (again) I am sure martyn would prefer better results than me using a maggie. right, time for a little review.... setup: avid sd7 lever, cheap cable from lbs, cheap inner, avid ultimate arms, bonz adaptors and iolo pads. I tried nokon cable, but it wasnt as smooth as the cheaper stuff. Feel: much easier to pull than a maggie, thats the advantage of being able to adjust the springs yourself. I get lots of arm pump in comps from pulling against the strongre spring in a maggie, with the vee, a big load has been taken off my finger and from the 10 hours I have spent at my secret quarry the last two days has helped with arm pump. With the avid lever, I can adjust the lever feel with the speed dial adjuster. With it adjusted in the furthest out setting the brake is VERY stiff, almost a wooden feeling (much stiffer than anyones maggie I have felt) With it adjusted to the closest to the pivot, the lever will pull quite far once the pads touch. probably far to much squidge for most people, but its definatley usable....a booster would help I think as I can see the stays flexing. performance: GOOD ok, you want more than that right? I have a ground rim and the brake makes a reet nice honk, the bite is very good, simular to a well set up maggie with a sharp grind. now then, the best bit......this brake has got the best hold of any brake I have ever owned! just get the bike on the ege of somthing and it will not slip, only the tyre limits what you can do, its amazing. I reccomed v brakes

from my experience caustic soda doesnt effect anything plastic, this includes paint (well, not plastic, but you get the idea) just keep at it with the nitromoors, buy enough to fill a bucket and bosh the forks in

I have seen many cases of the flanges snapping on king hubs and the standard axles are pretty weak. (in fact, iolo is running a FRONT king that has a snapped axle and snapped flange!) also, my hope still hasnt skipped once

I f**ked a cow because I am a looser veeery intresting mr bond

I run 20 - 19, really nice and spinny. its cool that you could get it to work without a tensioner, but I am a fan of gears, so its not really my cup of tea

currelty in master cat yes....I should have said Ex champ and in expert cat, but still, sponsors like good results.

I got sponsored by various people purly on comp results, being british champ helps a lot

dam ok, I'll give you a free one, come and collect it in 2019 pro 2s rule

mod??

I agree

its gotta be chilled out stuff for me.... ....RADIOHEAD!!!!!!!!!!!! they are amazing, so are Coldplay, Muse, Blur, Super Furry Animals, The eels, The beachboys, The Vines, Supergrass, Queen and more

good event Matt, was very nice of you to put on a light show in the morning too

2nd not bad for an injured rider

like the bmx I have always wanted a flatland one, though I aint sure if I have the patience to do much on them hmmm, the adamant, the less said the better in my books, sorry
