Ye, ill get old of the tape off travis next time we ride. and digitize it in for you.

Well , you think that is a lot of money... well have you ever seen this much before?? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...4392634280&rd=1 and if you think 10 grand for a nice sounding amp is a waste of cash, then what about this???... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...5014482646&rd=1

i would say , fill the inside of the backing with arodhite adhesive, and then get 2 small flat top/counter sunk screws and screw them through the back of the backing and into the pad. obviously dont overtighten the screws cos it will start riping the pad material away (like x-threadding stylee). Then leave in a vice overnite. My mate used this technique to fix 2 backings to one pad, basically to give the pad more reach, as he had a Koxx frame and a mavic rim and needed a Wide rim (but couldnt be botherd to get one) . the pad idea worked perfecto.

cant you just use Pritstick? (Y)

rotating is the same on the front to the back. just feels different.richard johnson gave me this advice about 3 years ago and it works for me. you do turn the bars. i could front hop till kingdom come (or till my arms fall off) and i have done 20 rotations with 8 hops per rotation before falling off and almost being sick from begin soo dizzy. -i have also managed a full rotation on front hops with just 3 hops... and me + trav managed it without a back wheel. (got on film) best front hop i can say i ever done, was on some shitty cheap bike, with NO wheels at all. i did 11 front hops on the forks!!

the bit you put the spanner around.... put that into a vice, make sure its TIGGGGHT! get someone to push down on the frame to help it not slip out , then turn the frame! surely it cant slip in the vice, the BB would shatter before you brake the vice. but if it does, atleast you no it was never ment to come out! Trust, it will work! i would do it for you if i lived closer!

i have tryed using them on pinch flats before.. they explode from the centre when you least expect it. it might not even be for like a week before it goes, but it will! Stick to box standard glue n rubber patch. or, you can cut up an old innertube and use as patches. i do this all the time. its all in the preperation. make sure u sand the foook out of the cut up tube 'patch' and glue it, then sand your punchured tube, and also glue, then wait for glue on both parts to go sticky and apply the patch! -oh and press down hard for like 30 sec, expecially on the corners of the patch. works a treet!

if you can do 3, the lean slightly more over the bars, so you like hop 5 times and then go over the bars,, but all u do is drop your feet off the pedals, so it dont exactly hurt. then after a while, ull learn to control your balance, like backhops,and do more. to turn in front hops, you use the same technique as turnin in backhops Ry

BUMP .... Anyone elso own something simila and like it? Would having the high BB make the bike feel like a 20" -cos surely that aint a bad thing?! Ry

dont smoke, but dont mind a bit of the good ole green stuff... but im not silly with it like some peop. ill make a tenners bag last a week + ,, i no people that do that in a day! i like it cos it relaxes you after a hard day at work, of ride, or to generally help me goto sleep and have nice dreams!

cheers peops. i dont no about bui and uci stuff, not really interested in comps etc.. With reguards to my riding style, i would say street, but everyones idea of street seems different.. So, i would say my riding style is the same as neil tunnicliffe. i ride an orange zero at the moment, which is a CRAP frame! and it is a massive holdback to my riding. so any new frame i get is gona feel strange, length etc, so i think i might as well take the plunge and get a bike with fab geo ,ie the GU and adapt to it. i ride my mates Long 05' zoo python quite alot, and it feels lovely? but im not sure on the geo of that? i have also looked at the BT raven 6.0 but i think its way too long. the GU short seems like a nice length.

I am like this (....) close to buying a GU frame.... its a LOT of money and i want everyones quick opponion before i take the plunge! DOES ANYONE AT ALL HAVE ANY REASON Y I SHULD NOT BUY THIS FRAME?? Thanks Ry P.s. dont reply with reguards to what it looks like , cos i think its sexxy!

NA, thats a python with some 26" forks on it. and a pitbull sticker! what is with the cable guides being where they are on the top tube?? Yuck!

That frame is DEFINATLY different to normal!!! i just did some conparing with previous pitbull pics... if you look at the Big gusset on the seat tube/rear triangle, the Bottom Cut out in the gusset is usually a Rectangular shape... but this one is just a little square!? Ry PS HELP PLEASE, i am just about to buy a GU! ...Over a pitball (obviously being the alternative!)

my personal opionion (sp?) .. oasis are a big pile of shite. and that liam gallagher sounds like some london muppet trying to sing, but cant. (and he is a twat) i hate there music, its shit. Modern music is the way of the future, and if its gona have gutars (sp?) in it, its got to be Metal music.

You have that down to a 'T' there matey! as i just so happen to have an Orange Zero, with some cack wheelbase like 990 !! it is pritty good for bunnyhops and bmx'eey tricks but useless for keeping on the back wheel! for Freestyle/BMX street, its cool. for trials riding?? well? thats another story! How comes GU isnt on any other sites inc the EchoZoo sites?? i would like to research the bike a wee bit before throwing £450 at one... is it actually designed by ZOO and prehaps designed to be the replacement to the pitball?? if so, how comes Neil tunnicliffe doesnt seem to have one yet?

just watch the CLS and neil Tunnicliffe vids, theres usually good slow-mos in them. thats what i did and i went from being able to gap 1 bike length, to almost being able to gap 2!! (static.) its all about having all your weight right over the bars, with your front wheel as low as possable, before your backwheel leaves the ground, then you have maximum reach over your bike and can pull it from below you , pull your bars upand tuck your legs up, then push the back wheel out foward.. i taught meself by drawing 2 chalk lines on flat ground. no need to go out and find gaps to learn on. do the gap when u no u can do the distance! ..just watch the vids.. ry

cool, i think ill get a short gu then, there only £50 dearer than d pitball. Adam / Dave... wots the warrantee etc on the gu?

nice one. anyone else got any input? does anyone own one already?? i think i will go with the short one if i get it, its a fairly 'long' short frame. if u get me. ry

What one will ride the best, i dont want the frame to be too much like the vinco sig frame, cos its to much trials specific. i like a bit of street riding too. Ry EDIT:- also, do i have to use thoes GU forks with the GU frame, or can i stick with my fattys? ?

Thing is this car isnt just some boy racers car, its a company car designed to show the rest of the world what kind of services they can provide. its a form of advertisment. and the graphics are adverts too, for the companies that perticipated in the design and build of the car. i dont like gay lookin stickers neither, but, there on this car for a reason. y do some people stick Magura and Hope stickers all over their bikes??

Thanx, someone who agrees with me! i personally think the car is goregous.. yes maby a bit overdone with the graphics, but other than that, goregous. yea, the exaust is out the side of the front bumper. its so loud too!

because the BMW has a monster of an engine and is a totally different shape. the evo has a 2ltr turbo. and is the shape of a house brick. you seem like such a boring person.

the evo has got 750BHP and does over 225mph, the bodyparts are actually part of the 'tuning' not just to look nice. ill photoshop a helmet on the blokes head later , ull see what i mean.. it did look like him before i resized the pic down 50%

i did, it was ok, but i never expect much from max power. altho it was great at the hilton get together, after, and then we went to the max party in birmingham, at the madusa (sp?) strip club, that was cooooooool! spotted this on the way into the hilton, i recon it was one of the nicest cars i see up there, altho it wasnt actually in max power its self! what you think of the photo? i think i did a pritty good job of that!! also, i spotted this... na, i was actually taking the photo of the girls. but dont that look like CLS in a gay pink top!! lol (no offence mate) Ry
