  1. If you're american it's "marvelous" not "marvellous" (going back to one of the first couple of posts).

    But having said that Americans claim to speak English, yet they spell things differently. How does this work?

    Sorry if i offend any body with this, i don't mean to it's just something i have been wondering about for some time now.

  2. I agree with you DeeZee, i think its better when people concentrate on how smoothly and stylishly they can do a trick, not always just how big the trick is.

    I agree too, but the main reason people i know measure is to see how far you have progressed, and just out of curiosity to see how high you can go, also you can have a little fun competing with friends.

  3. Hey, i see allot of topics about "what is best Mod or Stock", so i thought i would make this topic to show what I think the pro's and con's are.

    Mod

    Pro's

    Great stand over clearance

    Very "flicky" rear end good for gaps

    Cheaper parts

    Stronger in the long run

    Good for side hops, no derailleur problems

    Con's

    Can be less comfortable

    Less parts available

    Not so good grip on small wheels

    Stock

    Pro's

    More grip on the larger wheels

    Can be more comfortable

    Good balance and stability

    Less chavs :- asking you to go and do a barspin or grind something

    More parts available

    Con's

    Not as reliable

    Many parts to break

    More expensive

    Derailleur can be a pain, easy to hit on things

    Rims are easier to get flat spots dents or what not

    Quite substantually *sp* heavier

    Add anything else you think may be helpful to others.
