  1. The bike looks wicked bhups (Y) I'll be seeing it on the next ride with an eno so its going to be sounding good too :lol:

    :lol: You can always tell its your bike from your name on the rims.

  2. calm down wayne :lol: the hub will still have 48 engagement points, but on a 20" bike you have a 18:12 (3:2) gearing. that means, every crank rotation you do the wheel will spin 1.5 rotations. Same thing it back-pedalling, you spin the cranks 1 rotation while the hub spin 1.5x. Thats why you get 72 positions for the cranks to be in.

    With a CK on a 20" bike you'll get 108 positions. 72*1.5=108.

    With a CK on a bike with 1:1 gearing, lets say you ride 18:18 for some reason, you will have 72 crank positions.

    With a TA front freewheel you spin the cranks one rotation and get 108.

    hope that helped for something. peter :sleeping:

    PS. when will the TA freewheel be out for sale?

    I think what you're missing and this is why everyone is getting confused its that in order to get the FEELING of having a CK's EP's on the back you would need 108 EP's on the front, there are no extra pickup points just a mechanical advantage.

  3. BONGO made a topic called f**k bmx! :o

    None the less the tricks were cool, Pogo sticks is where its at B)

    :lol: the dudes got it right here pogoing rulez!

    The tricks do look quite cool and i have to admit i've tried a few things on my micro scooter and its bloody hard.

  4. Hasn't anyone just ever thought of ringing Shazam?? Its free if your on O2 hehe :- Seriously though when you need a tune just call 2580 and put your phone close enough to the speaker for it to hear it.

    That sounded a bit like an advertisement I know but thats what I use

  5. The main thing is the muscle:fat ratio you have on your body, fat however does not help wit your riding as it doesn't do anything but weigh you down, too much muscle however will leave you getting tired on your ride a lot faster as muscle requires energy just to be on your body and weighs alot so needs energy to move itself because of its own weight.
