  1. i'm not running any grind on my back rim and i've got some koxx browns, they are excellent even without a grind.
  2. mine are a little flexy, but i presume that the way they are. never had any probs with mine though
  3. im running 22-15, works a treat for me on stock , woohaa
  4. I'd just get a fron hope xc, not expensive, you could always go to a bulb if you have the money, or a new pro 2. i've been running an XC on my trials rig for a time and have had no problems what so ever. Plus you can just get the sme colour front to match the back you already have - winner ! As for a front brake I'd recommend a hydro, like a hope mini would do, how about one of the new hope moto's with the funky rotor. Nice and powerful i'd imagine. I hear that Avid's Juicie 7 is a fav with some riders too. Personally i wouldnt bother with a cable disc, but the choice is yours!
  5. yea, keep your rims smooth, im using koxx browns on smooth rims , even though they are ment for grinds they work an absolute treat
  6. yea, im agreeing with most of the guys in here, get some nice try-all rims. i'm on my second rear ( i killed the first - - - ooopsie ), but they are good rims, go get !
  7. cheers foe the comments,the tyres are ace. i've had them for a while now (since they were prototypes), and have been very impressed with them. They are quite soft and iv been running them at around 12psi on front, and about 15psi on rear and thats for street! they're super grippy, and the best thing for me is they were free! w00p ! i'd recommend them any day.
  8. i got a little bored today, so decided to take some pics of my bike n show it off, so here it is . . . enojy . . . http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/1078693/ http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/1078694/
  9. i've never had the urge to try it, just get some better pads, i presume your using a hs33, im running koxx brown pads, n they work a treat, and they dont waer down to quickly either
  10. looks like anice wee spot to ride
  11. take the bearing to a bearing factory, and they should be able to size one up for you no probs.
  12. yea, get a mono. its an ace hub, iv been runnin mine for a long time now, i think about just over 2 years, the only problem i had with it is a snapped axle, but this hasnt put me off them, i still rate them highly
  13. about 2 months ago, when i still had my street bike, i lauched off a 13 set to flat at the bottom. My BB decided to snap sending my left foot slamming down on the floor... broke my foot in 2 places and tore a few ligaments ... yummy. it hurt a tad.
