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

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
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
-
erm....... sensible anwser might be just buy a bash ring and grind your bash guard down to stop the chain rubbing...... that should push the cog more inline to the driver on the profile by say 5/6mm.
might work

looks quite nice i think, shame its vee mounts
Also found shimano screw on 158mm cranks

Check local bike shops, if the back brake needed bleading then surely thats the first place they'd take it ?
Realy gutted for you man
hope you find her soon

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 ---->)

which bit did you get wrong ? as long as you had the right area/town surely you should be able to call up theyre head post office and see if its been returned to them !!!!
-
i think the only reason steves has the bb drop is due to running 24" shorter forks but i could be wrong !
-
his were v to v adaptors to run 24
same idea though just mount possitioned lower down
-
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
realy nice moves the only thing i didnt like is the fact you can potentialy side hopp higher than me wrong foot and wrong side
well done
-
only way i can see it happening is a four bolt mount that somehow screws into the holes for the canti bosses but ive never seen such an adaptor made to fit 26" wheels but Mr Heatsink himself did make them for his 24/26 inch........
-
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.
-
never put "hope i helped", you will never get validated.
JK
dont put "JK" people will get pissy at you
-
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
-

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 )
hope that helps

Go for some thing under 100mm long, more like 50/60mm. It feels solid to bunny hop mine and thats with a 110mm ( i think) stem !

easiest way is to use strips of old measureing tape allready cut for you

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
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
