  4. when i start riding i'm shit scared of doing anything and have to build up slowly every weekend >.< although when i rode everyday in the summer i just went for everything everyday now i'm riding every other weeknd it's all going down the shitter haha. chain snaps used to scare me alot to (month into trials and i'd mullered my crotch on my stem and couldn't enjoy myself for a month)so i replace my chain every 2 months so all is good there i find i'm not bothered about skips when i've just cleaned my freewheel so i usually clean my eno the night before a ride even if i cleaned it a fortnite ago. hope some of that helps
  5. they stop your frame from flexing outwards when you brake (if you want to see this go run outside/or where-ever your bike is, and look at the rear maggy and pull the lever like a beast and you'll see the frame bend outwards slightly) so you brake feel stiffer and is stronger because of it, it also protects your crossover and looks pimp! you install them by removing your bolts from the mounts then putting the longer bolts back in with the booster and spacer on as well it's prety obvious what you've got to do, it's just fiddly

  9. get one of your lady freinds to try to get with the boyfreind of who ever you like, tell the girl about it (not that you planned it, just her boyfreind got with your mate) and boom single it's slightly disohnest etc but it's better than raping them . Or is it ?
  10. I run a rear V!Z rim and V!Z stem and there awesome the rims taken a beating (14.5 stone of me couldn't kill it) and takes grinds really well had my rim 8 months and only ground it twice and it styed good an sharp and the forged stem looks sexy and is stiff as your like .
  11. howdy all, just used obms wheelbuild guide laced it all up started tightening the spokes only the spokes you put in first (flat head of spoke facing away from the flange going straight out to the rim) they arent pulled in at all =[ pictures: [attachmentid=8346] any suggestions? thanks
  12. if this works would it disprove the theory of god(or similar) creating the universe and therefore disproving (parts of)religions? or something along those lines
  13. Think so if it's where they've stabilised antimater in a vacuum and it got stolen and hidden in the vatican then yes.

  15. been thinking about insuring my steed for a while, now it's worth over a grand i think getting it insured would be a good idea can insurance cover me riding it in town and some biig scally laying me out and trotting off with it? how much (and how often) would i be looking to pay? and how does it work with the insurance do i give them a spec+cost of parts on my steed and they base the rate on that i have no idea lol.

    Tf Makeover

    darker skins? tends to hurt my eyes if the room is dark etc. maybe a way of reporting new members if you think they should be validated? obviously only members can do it so new members don't recomend eachother.
  18. get a tight fitting beanie but makes sure it's strretchy or it makes your head hurt my hairs not like mega long but it's enough to get in my eyes and a beanie usually does the trick
  19. o rli? are they even sealed bearings on those monty pedals?
  20. When i was thinking about getting an iolo i was playing about with a few ideas for it. iether having an internal tentioner like on that onza with the funky chainstays or, having fixed dropouts and having a mount for a sprung tentioner that allowed me to run a longer chain so if i missed up the chain could go right up to the dropouts so no stress was put on my freewheel or chain (i'm shitscared of a chain snaps :$ ) and then having a block of steel along the dropout between the wheel and cranks with a section cut out for the chain to run through it.
  21. Zoo! python (echo) 128mm bb- tryall with an eno and 74kingz bash (only just big enough the tabs to remove the freewheel have eaten a bit of my bb)
  22. Howdy all my rear wheels in bits atm, just de laced my rim and got crap on it lol, is there anyting majic you'd recomend i put on it for cleaning it? (i used cilit bang normally, makes it brake so well but i can't find any >.< ) any suggestions?
