  1. Now the hell can you ride brakeless
  2. Yeah exactly, a slack chain is more likely to snap than a tight one. A tight one will knacker your bearings. I personally don't like it too tight for the above reason, but it can't be so loose that it'll keep hitting the chainstays.
  3. That sounded like a devil vomiting.
  4. Drop gaps, drops, big gaps, sidehops and hooks.
  5. I must say that at the very beginning, those Marino bikes didn't look too promising. But now, at least from those pics the quality looks really good. And with it being a very small business, you know it's going to get even better with every frame they release. Congratulations to the owner of this brand, it could be quite successful in Europe with such a rider promoting it.
  6. Nice to see the Lynx and Piranha's make it back. Deng is going back to his roots with the Zoo's, the design is pretty much identical to the '04 Python and Pitbull. Lovely stuff. I'm pretty sure that the new GU colour code is yellow.
  7. The larger the diameter of the ring on which the pawls engage, the less torque they have to transfer. If they engaged on the freewheel body, they'd have to put up with a hell of a lot more torque.
  8. You missed the point my friend. Unless your post was a discreet way of saying that you prefer Celsius? But yeah, 72ep must be as much as one will ever need. I mean how many of us have that many and ever think we could do with more? In all seriousness, what Koxx is doing is just called progress. The world would be pretty shit if people thought everything was good enough and didn't need improvement. So if this design doesn't work, another one of theirs' in the near future will. Still, it'd be great to have a freewheel based on the King engagement system.
  9. Actually, Who thought of those recent massacres in Germany and the US with students killing their schoolmates after seeing the title of this topic?
  10. Good luck dude, hope everything goes to plan.
  11. Would you rather have your arm surgically amputated, or have to remove your eyeball with a spoon?
  12. Why would anyone ever use something like that? Multikey for me, rarely look at the screen/mobile while texting. With T9 you can never be sure that it's guessed the word you wanted to type.
  13. You've finally done those Vimeo tags. Well done sir! Video is amazing.
  14. What about a rose? It'd make things obvious for her without you even having to open your mouth.
  15. You're going to be a very good rider pretty soon.
  16. Yeah but if you think about it, what they're doing is pretty clever. If a 36ep freewheel skips, it skips to the next pawl engagement which is 1/36 of a rotation.A 180 which skips all the time, will only skip 1/180 of a rotation. That's 2 degrees god dammit! Well below freezing if you think Fahrenheit, but why would you. Celsius is the way forward.
  17. Just saw it on Youtube. Who would have thought that one video aimed at trials riders would change so much in his biking 'career'.
  18. Good stuff. They use that music in Top Gear from time to time. Riding was great, some neat moves there!
  19. 99% sure it's a 26". Edit: actually, i'm sure. My mate has a 231K on a TryAll rim or something and runs a maggie.
  20. Who gives a flying shit? Your opinion on whether it's a street or trials frame isn't going to make it any different to ride.
  21. If you need more opinions, I too think that your current setup is just fine. In fact, that stem and bar combination on a 7.0 should be pretty much perfect unless you're way over 6ft tall.
  22. Coffe or tea?* * you must go and make a cup of whatever you choose
