  1. i for one think that site looks rarther good. Where did that guy get his red spokes from!!!!!!!!!!! tell me nooowww!!!! lol

    theyre primo spokes.... bout £30 for 50 i think he paid :ermm: not sure....... site looks good josh need some pics of your newly pimped ashton on there though ;)

  2. The chain isn't rubbing on the bashguard.

    i know but by straightening the chain line at the cog it would cause it to rub on the red box :ermm:

    i meant that placeing a spacer would push the chain towards the bash guard and cause it to rub but would straighten the chain and stop noises :) i think..... depends how close the cog is to the BB :huh:

  3. was looking for cheap CK bmx hubs (now gone off the idea btw) and discovered this:

  4. Dj was a well known member of this forum and friends with a lot of people on it, he ran a company called "the fluffy bunny movement" and sadly died, i shan't go into the details as i don't know them !

    To my knowledge he died before i started riding so unfortunately i never got to meet him.

    Thank fully through the efforts off his friends and family there is now a memorial garden devoted to him and even a tf emoticon (this one ---->) :bunny:

  5. Are you on speed for part of that vid ?????? you side hopp and as soon as you land you hopp again then again and again :S

    realy nice moves (Y) the only thing i didnt like is the fact you can potentialy side hopp higher than me wrong foot and wrong side :P

    well done

  6. I find the best trick is to allow the pedals to turni the cranks and move your legs acordingly, if you go too fast it becomes harder to balance IMO !

    Also learn them at a slower pace and gradualy build up i.e. start on flat grond with a small endo then slowy move onto a bank/slope.

  7. Yeah i was thinking about fixing it with two bolts too.. but i think it will stay at one place (: Havent tried it yet though.. hope it will work (: .. Gonna update as soon as i get more parts..

    Thanks for the comment..

    Cheers!

    If the tensioner doesn't work try upwards tensioning it, and holding it upwards with a thick cable tie..... depends on chain length but for some reason i can see that loosing tension :S

  8. What water? tap or filtered water

    Your best using whats called "de-ionised" water, its intended for use in car batterys, so you can get it at places such as halfords. Its effectively boiled and filtered water to remove all the impurities which also makes it ph 7 (or neutral) so it wont affect seals. It does cost but....... it wont kill your seals !!!!!!!

    The other options to ask the science department at your school nicely for some distilled water, almost the same thing (or so my teacher says :ermm: )

    hope that helps

  9. i'd have it more like :

    Wheelbase: 1020mm

    Chainstays: 365mm

    BB rise: +70

    Head tube angle: 72 degree's

    but thats my idea of a perfect frame :P

    and depending on what fork you use +80bb rise could be more like +60 when you've built it up. Also dont use a high rise stem, i find it feel's like you loose power when you hop :S
