  1. lockon grips are good. especially in the wet, although they can score your bars. and if your really hardcore you can snap them i'm running tarty raffle grips. i like them although there shit to fit on. white spirit helps
  2. nah backings are thermosetting, they won't die unless you really roast em. i put my pads in the oven and the pad was forced out my the glue melting haha.
  3. i went from mod to stock this time last year, improved my confidence loads, my riding didn't actually drop in standard. but 6months of inconsistant riding has turned me shit you'll find stocks are more forgiving on ups + rails [larger "sweet spot" to land on] although you loose that whippy-flicky feeling, stocks are just more stable. do it but expect to suck at first
  4. another vote for monty tyres, i was really impressed with them
  5. what hub/freewheel you running? are the internals clean? you usually have to have quite alot of chain wrap on the rear sprocket with pro2s for singlespeed
  6. will cranks sill clear the floor i have it in my head they won't?
  7. i might be firing some mod wheels into my simtra in the summer donations welcome
  8. i'm a fan of the profanities when i ride blasting up a wall and yelling fanny, can't beat it.. i don't tend to think, only where to hit my wheel for a tap, i just focus on my obstacle..
  9. one of these badboys there not hard to open.
  10. he's serious, remove the battery so it doesn't short you may need a cold soldering iron though.
  11. ogre

    Poor Brake

    just do a really light one, take your time, use a battered old disk thats practicly rounded itself.
  12. i had the 74kingz ring, can't find a picture, looked shit hot though although it's really thick so you might find some problems with freewheel/bottombracket clearance.
  13. your disk rotors on the wrong way round . 2nd to last picture looks an awesome place to ride.
  14. avid bb7. silent + rediculous power..
  15. can tap high bb frames, and mods, i used to tap everything when i was pushing little wheels
  16. i really wish i could make these rides
  17. lincolns alright, but the police are really tightening up on riders + skaters etc . some really good riders about though
  18. avid mechanicals are the easiest to service+tinker with, but tend to have power over proportionality + feathering, way cheaper to (i suppose if you pick a small rotor you'd be able to feather it, but it wouldn't compare to a hydro) hopes are also prety awesome but cost a bomb, avid ***...
  19. go in a tractor, earlier than everyone, crawl there at 5mph, so everyone else who's rented a limo etc, has to pay their driver overtime + stuff. unless your on about what to wear, white suite>black suite...
  20. nitromorse should be fine.
  21. freehubs *** i remember back in my mod days having to remove my pedal + crank to get my leg free 'cause i had no cutters. good times.
  22. Youtube Video -> Original Video pow
  23. you need to consider the steriotypes of kids your looking at. but at a guess a good chunk of kids who smoke pot have stoner parents/ones that don't give a shit, so getting caughts not a problem, and for everyone else, there gunna hide what there doing anyway, the price is the biggest put off, and at a crack when it goes up a grade, so will the price, thats the only obvious affect i imagine making a difference.
  24. won't make a difference. regardless of classification weed has that softcore-party-drug image. i know it wont make a differance to any of my mates. meh not really my problem though. when they gunna clamp down on alcohol 'cause that causes depression + all the other evil jazz that chronic abuse of anything causes. also what happens to sales in stuff like bakery crap + all your other munchie fodder. the corner shops are gunna get pwned..
