  1. find a low un, you'll be rete... I'd like to avoid further significant injuries. i'd like to get sidehops back, I should be riding over bar height confidently every time, dial in my front wheel moves maintain and improve my healthier lifestyle to i look back on this point and consider how i was doing things almost barbaric... see you in a year thread
  2. google is f**king amazing page 5... edit: seems thats only drop off heights.. useless waffle answer: height/power alone isn't what wins competition, sound choice of line, confidence and overall ability are needed to well.

    Warranty..

    i've run urbans for years, i've never been under 15 stone, i've cracked one pair... they're popular good price/weight/value forks, everyone runs em and they get notorious for snapping cause you see them fail over other forks, if you know your a beast buy better ones.
  9. 5 10s are the way to go. i now treat them as 'riding only' shoes and avoid wearing them full time, i wore them daily when i was in uni in first year, i was walking 2 miles+ 5 days a week and riding 2 times a week, they didn't last more than 7 months before they looked f**ked and the soles were pretty ruined. however my high top boots have lasted really well. i've got some new danny macs and you can make out the outline of a v8 on them after 25 hours of riding... soft grippy soles = sucky wear life. hard shoes will always last longer but tend to let you down on the grip factor... i don't mind shelling for a good confidence booster when i'm riding though
  10. is it me or do everyone elses cranks look to battered to trust, but mine are always reet, no matter how fubar'd...

      i'd like that if i could

  11. factory full builds are just better, the stem/bars usually suite the frame. and they're usually fair value. unless you've been dabbling in trials long enough to just know what you want from a custom build you'll probably f**k it up or spend eternity changing shit.. seems how it is in my experience, every factory full build i've used has been better than the coble together builds you tend to find... although any combination of high bb high ep fw and isis/oversized and your winning...
  12. specialized tactic recently acquired one, really like the fit keeps my head a good temperature and looks ace!
  13. if I scroll down. does it turn out to be a lady boy?
  14. Will go for the coxy option as I only have the latter part of mules suggestion available =(
  15. Hey tf. Have some be green pads. Removed half the pad. The lgm half is still stuck. Tried boiling water and have even cut the pad thinner so it can flex out... any suggestions tf?
  16. Try reading the whole thread. Muel said it can increase grip. It depends on the trye what you remove for the best effect. But yeah increased grip. Reduced weight. Reduced wear life and increased faggotry

    Echo 108

    Hey y'all I got a 108 Freewheel yesterday when I took it out the bag I noticed it still had bits of metal on it. Like cut offs from it being machined. And the anodosing isn't consistent. Is that normal? Or am I to anal for my on good. Also people have mentioned bedding in this freewheel. What's the preferred method? Is there a fast way as I can only fit it on Saturday and have the hull RiDe on Sunday. Thanks tf
  18. I'm in donny is not to dear on the train. If its open after 5 I'm certainly game for regular riding.
  19. i'm offended by this. wouldn't turn down having a go on one just to see if i could boss it anyway though
  20. Controversy attack. Bb7 on the rear is ace. I ran a 185 on my 24. Had no issues with the performance and I weighed over 15stone when I was running it. Bb7s are better than other discs in my experience. Cheap to run and less sensitive/delicate that hydraulics
  21. i had ther hightops, i ruined the lace loops riding trials. get low tops... 510s are mint, i'm on my 4th pair, there expensive but they grip so damn well...

    Completed

    i have never had cod rage, i sunk quite a few hours into it in first year. i don't get why you'd get mad over a game. to OP your bragging about games on a biking forum, you invited the abuse..
