Greetings Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 I actually worked it out to be a year, but your truely special..... or shit.... or fat... Definitely one of the above. But which is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krazykid009 Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 I think I'm special to be honest... More to the point I think I just keep buying the wrong frame for the job.. Very into my street and spinny shizzle, but been buying lightweight compy frames >.< Got myself an inspired now so touch wood I should be able to keep this one alive... at least fr a bit anyways. Also on my 4th freehub (2 hope XCs, a zoo and back to a hope Mono), so think it's time for me to get a Pro2 Evo Been running the same Onza BB for ever, although went through two Truvativ Howitzers on my Diamondback Kabuki. On the other front I replaced my grips for the first tie the other day Unfortunately just killed my 5.10s... only lasted me since christmas.

SamKidney Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Tubes, Tyres, Grips, Forks. Frames. My Python only lasted 6 months And my Try-All forks latsed 3 months from new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncy H Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 With my current bike ive changed the pads and a rim and that's it in a year. Which isn't really bad going, I guess it's cause I'm not a huge rider and not too much of a basher plus that with long lasting trialtech parts such as forks and bars etc means it's held up as a pretty tough package.

N.Wood Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 Chains because f**k having that shit snap on you. Change every 3 months. Then tyres / grips, brake pads etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robintrial Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 This also comes to another point, why do people buy chunky tyres and cut some of the knobbles or tread off? I mean, if you don't want to much knobbles get some different tyres? I was just wondering, i got maxxis creepy crawler but i don't like the way they are in the beginning it's like riding with slicks imo. so i cut some knubs off not, realy THE waight saving it's all about the grip. if you found the combination of erased knobbels you like you'll always use it. the preformance can be improved by this easy modification +my chains and shinguards(realy f*cked my shins before) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p_ruskin Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 Frames for me, then tubes/tyres, chain, then rims and wheels, which don't tend to last me at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solasaurous Posted June 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 I find that tubes are a pain in the arse, keep having to repair or buy new ones. I buckle my wheel a bit, but it's still going! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
