  1. "aaaaaah my other ankle!" The guy doesn't actually do a lot of tricks or so, but the magnitude of the things he does is huge... P.S. I avoid showing this to friends, because they say that trials is shit, after seeing this...

    Dudes, just leave the poor rail alone! It got you beat, just accept that!
  3. That sounded gay... If you stop by Bulgaria, write a message, we'll work things out. There are some great hostels here
  4. The two red things that I circled should be one piece. They are not in your case, because the whole thing broke apart. You need a new M5 bolt if I am not mistaken, and cut the head with a saw so that it has a hole like part #3. Bolt #1 should be in place #2 I think...I mean there should be a bolt in #2 and if you have another bolt like in #1 you should use it for the purpose I said above. Forget about those two little pieces that I wrote are broken. They won't do you any good anymore. Hope this helps.

    24" Marino

    Hi, I couldn't find anything about the subject (maybe I am bad at searching) so I will go straight to it. Anyone ridden a copy of Inspired, for example, in Marino production? If yes, how does it feel? Is it too stiff? Is it too heavy? Everything you could tell me will be appreciated, because I am going to move to a 24" soon, and this is the only option I have. If I had enough money I would go for an Inspired, but, sadly, I don't... Thanks in advance, Cheers
  7. I don't see why most of you say so many bad things about the company itself...They make custom frames, which means they aren't tested with this geometry, these tubings, etc. And it seems that Damon wanted a light frame. Also the frames are made from normal carbon steel (which btw doesn't contain only carbon...it's an alloy of some sort I am certain) which is bound to bend like that. Another thing - the frames cost like 100 pounds...why would anyone expect GREAT quality like an Inspired (300 pounds). And combining all these facts the question stays - why are there so many idiots that make "smart" statements in this forum....whatever, I have sand in my vagina and am nervous and need to get it out somewhere. But I am sure that when they go CrMo, Marino will be better than ever. Peace...
  8. If you are looking for strength and don't care about weight, you should definitely go with a Collapse. I snapped two KMCs so far, and the second one was going to be fatal...I was quite lucky that day. But if you change them regularly (3-4 months) I don't think you will have any problems.
  9. Well I think that the equivalent of 18/12 in mod is 18/15 for stock...
  10. I think he was being ironic...he's just an idiot. So could you do anything about the "This video isn't available for your country" thing? Maybe vimeo with good quality
  11. Plazmatic CRM is the way to go The problem is that in two or three weeks you are gonna have to change them...but it's worth the money.
  12. It's exactly the same fork. The f...in' CNC STIFFNESS shites on the boots don't make a difference... Better mounts on the back than on the front though...
  13. You just need to get into a technical university and learn some physics Then you will know, for example, that Kinematics isn't about force. It's about movement. I have some theory about your word. The example you gave - pedal up an obstacle - you first have some potential energy (this is when you are on the bike doing nothing, but pressing your weight on the bike so that it stands still). Then you press your pedal with that potential energy to result in kinetic energy that makes the bike move. Then you use your other potential energy of your body to lift the bars and in the same time pedaling. Then you crouch and there it is. Energy resulting in doing something cool. So in my calculations the word is "Potential energy". Which is not very cool thing to say, so I guess is not the thing you were looking for... Cheers
  14. Actually that was the opinion I wanted. Thanks.
