  1. dont they need a 26" hub on the rear and geo makes them seem heavy on the back wheel but they're nice for streety style moves e.g. manuals and spins :- you b20 looks nice though have a look at the brisa in my signature thats mine B)
  2. depends how your brake is set up but it allways works like this: one cylinder fills and then the other fills so no water should work the same (just more responsive)
  3. i find my brisa easy to back wheel stuff (got a zona now though) :-
  4. it changes ALOT but this week its reel big fish - sell out nine black alps - not everyone :-
  5. dmr single speed revolver :-
  6. 68mm shell with a 127.5 axle shimano un 53 (for square taper) or a 128 axle truative giga pipe (isis) hope it helps p.s. put up a picture (mines in my signature)
  7. i posted this up a while ago ok this works for my acs claw but i don't know about other e.g. shimano 1. remove free wheel/crank from frame 2. remove free wheel case (the top) making sure you hold the free wheel together so no ball bearings fall out 3. place some alcohol (methane not wisky) on a piece of cotton wool and use the to clean the threads 4. make sure there is NOTHING (oil or methane) left on the threads (methane should of evaporated) 5. place a small amout of loctite/nut lock on the threads on the free wheel and case 6. place a small blob of grease on the bearings (you wont be able to open it easily again) 7. tighten up the free wheel case using a screw driver and once tight hit the end of the screw driver with a mallet lightly to pinch the case tight 8. leave for a hour to dry then place back on the bike then ride away with a big grin on your face things to remember: which direction the case to tighten it hold the free wheel together to stop ball bearings falling out leave to dry for an hour hope it helps :)
  8. when you get it open it up and place a little grease on the ball bearings, also loctite the top cap shut that might help... how tight do you run your chain that might affect it :) hope that helps (Y)
  9. add backflip barspin to that list... (he modified his forks to a single crown and ran realy long brake hoses to allow them to spin) that guys nuts (but kool) (Y)
