  1. smithy... my opinion on tyres... i find that high rollors are grippier than minions, on the rear...this is what i have found before some jock calls me a ginger dick sucking black beauty. and a continental explorer i think it is a run on the front seems grippy enough, maybe not on slippy slanted rocks or greasy walls, but for rails...wet walls...etc it seems acecore. my 50cent OH ASS... super tacky for the maxxis tyres, i found no difference between it and the soft compound one but wear rate.
  2. this kid is going to be summat big, from start of summer and through he has improved so much. kids got so much control, side hops onto little rails easy as pie and just rides along them like ass. hes a good lad. :lol:
  3. nout is ever going to be as strong as a 521, never used a dx32 so i dunno.
  4. mines beasty, i can honestly say they are so much tougher than the old cnc'd ones
  5. im lost, how is this any different? its the same as what i got, except i have to use the syringe you get with dmr V8's cause my big one went wank :lol:
  6. have had this problem so many times, and so have many others i know. I sent it back to hope after it did it like 3 times and they sent me it back about a month ago with new seals and it did it again. i have found that pumping the pistons out quite far then squirting gt85 around it then pushing it back in then doing it again works. also found that gt85 works better than dot fluid for it. mine does it when it gets really wet, like when i go on a real wet ride. same for anyone else?
  7. nice one martin. :'( getting well good
  8. maybe you should get in contact with him and not just wait for him to get into contact with you?
  9. shrewers and myself are riding bristol once again on saturday. join us :P + Tim Steadman
  10. i see dave has learnt how to get his leg up.
  11. viz ehhhhhhhhhh its like that shitty wannabe fake cokeacola you get for 10p at your local indian shop...WHICH they have spiked to make it even worse. and they have a gay apollo line, which just makes the rims weak as f**k.
  12. you will hate 24 after a month of having it and will have another long bike, then something else the month after.
  13. check out chainreactioncycles.com for the brakes, cheapest about. get some heatsink pads on there, as the new ones i have are amazing and i cant see myself changing ever, much better than plaz/koxx and awesome value aswell. depending on your frame flex, if you need one get a heatsink booster as a added bonus. both of these products can be found on www.heatsinkbikes.com and you will have a mint back brake for just under £100 sorted
  14. nice. but that kid that does loads of tailwhips, fair enough hes fecking good. but his style is horrid, thats the one thing that keeps me hooked to a bmx vid is if a rider has mint style, just keeps you wanting more. like bongo has a real laid back style and is real good to watch cause it just seems different to any other rider i watch. just a little quibble that IMO would improve that rider from really good to amazingly good and wanting to watch.
  15. BEASTY BEANS!!!!!!!! hope we see some sketch lady again... :blink:
  16. heatsink blues. and then when the new compund comes out GET THEM! i have used them for a good few days and i love them, best pads i have used.
  17. woah ye, good to see something of danny smith for once. was only last night i was wondering where you had got to. good stuff
  18. my i pod did this jonny. first time i just plugged it into the charger and it was allright and went back to normal. then it did it again and i couldnt do anything at all untill the battery ran out. then it did it yet again so i took it back and they gave me another. so your best bet is to take it back cause i bet it will do it again.
  19. dont forget your hover craft zooloo
  20. ...with gloves, was riding yesturday and fork me it was cold on the sea front at porthcawl, i couldnt feel my fingers and i just couldnt use me brakes propper. so i need some advice on good gloves. i brought some cheap dakine ones at nass as i hadnt used gloves in years so thought i would have a go again. but they are propper horrid, they bunch up in the palm and i seem to get arm pump when i wear them :S also find using my brakes with them is hard, ie i cant grip the lever very well and it just feels like my finger is going to slip off the lever. i just wanna know what peoples views are on good gloves, im thinking i need quite tight/elasticy ones? if you can get them like that? so they dont bunch up at the palm. and also how long do gloves normally last people. i remember back in the day, like 2.5-3 years ago i had some blue fox ones which i rode till they were well passed it, ie no fingers etc and i think they were about 5-6 months old but im not to sure. so what are people opinions on gloves to get... specialized? fox? 661? i dunno what else... thanks James :P
  21. exactly what i was thinking earlier, along with waynes one about something that happened yesturday. this forum needs to be taken down a peg for sure.
  22. why did i never think of that?!?!?!?!???!?!?! :S except i would never need to say it, cause it is a well known fact that gingers and ginger dont get together girls and beef emo or goth
