That just pi**** all over our idea of having balance I really like the flatland section in the lotek mixtape video, some really awesome stuff in it and good music. Edit: For anyone that doesn't know what i'm on about then check this at 10:46, and while you've got it open make sure you watch Eddie clevelands section in it (the first one). Lotek mixtape

That is what i find the easiest way of doing them. I try and roll along for as long as i can without pumping, and then once i start to slow down or the front gets too high or too low, thats when i start to pump. Try to keep you arms fairly straight, and your arse over the back and use your legs and hips to keep it balanced, this way your arms act like levers. I've found my manuals have got a lot better now i ride brakeless bmx. This way i'm just relying on body movement, and not the back brake (which often doesn't help as trials pads are too sharp).

No it's a sun street lite rim. But i think i have sorted it now. I just took the driver out of the cassette and found it was all gunked up with a really thick white grease , which was stopping the pawls from moving and returning freely, so it kept slipping. So i gave it a good clean and it hasn't slipped yet *touch wood*
-
I keep hearing cracking/banging sounds coming from my cassette hub on my new Fit. I know that they do have to bed in properly, as i had to with my eno before it stopped slipping. But the cracking/banging sound seems to be getting more and more frequent (a lot more frequent than my eno was when it was new), and it usually seems to happen when it's under pressure, like doing brakeless stalls, or landing from a 180 etc. So is this just a normal thing, and it will eventually stop doing it?
-
Yeah that always works for me. Or use some muc-off on it, that stuff is great for getting rid of road grime and general dirt

I'm not going to bore you with every band going. But make sure you get albums/songs by: Eazy E (real muthaphuckkin G's being an awesome song) Broken social scene (if you can't find any of their songs, then check their myspace if you want to listen to them) Modest mouse Flogging molly Some fairly diverse stuff there, so get listening

When i said one i didn't mean theres only one, i meant here is one Not really much of a question, and i'm not really sure if anyone will know. But is there a voices 2 coming out sometime, just i read somewhere there was but i can't remember where i saw it.
-
If you mean can you get the 07 street frame separate then no you can't, or not that i have seen anyway. But you can get the flow series frame here Alans. To conclude, i went for a razz on it when i got back from school and i love it. Manuals are really easy, and it comes up nice and easy for hops. And just to add to the awesomeness theres no clicking coming from a freewheel. Silent cruising for me
-
It's an 06 as they were going cheap at source bmx due to the 07's coming out. It feels really nice and flicky, and a lot easy to spin than my other (though i haven't got a lot to compare it to). But i haven't had much of a go on it, as it got dark just after i had finished putting it together.

Except zelda. Zelda was awesome, one of the best reasons to buy a nintendo 64. I had hours of fun when i was younger on that game. But yeah, the wii does look really good so far especially for the creativeness of it. And the games with the nintendo systems always seem to be better than its rivals. Although i think i'm going to wait a while after it's release to see how it's going, as i learnt my lesson when i got my xbox 360 after they had just been released.

Look what came for me this afternoon (sorry for the shitty pictures)
-
I remember seeing something like that a while a go, it was some old man. He tied ropes to the doll so he could hang it from the ceiling and do his business with it, and he used to dress it up in clothes so that he could take them off . I seem to remember something about a drill being used in a strange fashion as well (that could of been something else )
-
I used to have a nintendo 64 then an xbox then an xbox 360. The 360 ended up going back because i had had two and both decided to shit the bed (which was quite annoying), so i could of either got a third one and be up shit creek if that one decided to break (due to warranty), or just get a full refund. I went for the latter.
-
I was practicing that today on some banks. It does feel strange at first as the bike does move about slightly (rolling forward and backwards), but after a while i was doing them for as long as i could with a rear brake, and they feel much more fun to do, and you learn more bike control about balance points and using other methods instead of relying on brakes. It is definitely worth a go
-
Just found out that it actually does come with a brake but it is one of those single bolt jobbies, that fit to the hole in the little cross piece between the stays. Even so i doubt i will use it, as i will probably just take it off. Hopefully it should be here tomorrow *fingers crossed*. But it is the 06 one, as it was a good price compared to the new fit flow street at £528 (which i wouldn't of been able to afford).
-
I think he looks more like the Interpol puppet, bar the cuts
-
Ye i did notice that when i saw it, but after you said about going brakeless i gave it a go and really like it. So i'm happy to say i have been converted

Get a spoon and put it in a freezer(or anywhere that is cold), take it out, then with the back of the spoon rub it on the bruising. It hurts a bit, but it works really well, as i found out when i needed to get rid of a bruise on my neck before my parents saw it
-
Basically after my order from evans cycles for the wethepeople beyond went down the pan (see angry thread). I ended up canceling the order with them. So i have been searching for other good bmx shops which i have found, but at the same time noticed another bike being the fit flow street. As i'm pretty new to bmxing, i'm just wanting some opinions on which bike to get, being the wethepeople beyond or the fit flow street.

It does the same for me too
-
damn right How much air can Chase Hawk get, seriously it's amazing. Bit of a shame Eddie Cleveland got injured fairly early on in the trip because i always like watching his riding. Either way though the video was awesome
-
You just made my day , and gave me an excuse to delay the work i have to do, all at the same time.

That is exactly what happened to me when i started doing them. But i found after a while when i was more confident with them i just dropped the seat a bit lower and i don't tend to pinch it as hard or as much. I just keep my legs slightly wedged back into the curve on the seat so that when i lean back it gives me more support, if you see what i mean.
