    Shimano brake bleed kits

    In my experience the ones off eBay work fine. I just make sure to buy them in packets of decent quantity so when they swell I'm I'm not caught halfway through a job

    [QLD] The Gap DJ pump track walton bridge reserve

    Regarding the height of rollers. I find that taller rollers ore better for slow speed sections (as long as they aren't too tall) and smaller rollers for faster sections. Small rollers should be anyw'here from 25-50cm and taller rollers between 50-75cm. However it is all dependant on the...

    new trail at delrio

    Looks sweet. If you are going to call it a downhill track you will need a b line around that sand bag jump. Keep up the good work, and put more photos up as you build.

    cleats

    Nah, your thinking of Crank Brothers. I reckon Shimanos wear out from the bottom, from walking around. Can't notice any difference in the release. They last heaps long because they are steel, whereas CB are brass.

    Chainguide mounts

    Just measure the centres of the two lowest tabs on the mount, if it's ISCG Old like Peril says, it'll be about 47mm, if it's ISCG 05 it will be 55mm.

    short light Bmx

    Hi guys, I've done a search on Rotorburn, Pinkbike and E-Bay for a freestyle BMX and I'm just wondering if you have any suggestions about a short (wheelbase), light (overall weight) and a low stand over height for a low price. I'm 170cm tall and 60kgs, just as a guide if that helps. Thanks guys

    What Brake Fluid do you guys use with Downhill

    Brake fluid is a non issue. As stated above, just use the right type for your brand of brake, and change it once a year or so, and bleed them properly. In your case with Shimano use mineral oil, just get the Shimano branded stuff.

    sold

    More like a welding problem than a design problem. The tube right next to the weld gets weakened by the heat from the weld if it's not done right. I had a couple of cracks just like that on my SX Trail in different locations. If you are the first owner, you should be able to get it on...

    Crack in Carbon GT

    It looks to me like it's been scratched by the chain. Note the mark on the black aluminium carrier, which lines up with the mark on the chain stay. If you are in doubt, pull it apart, lift off the flaking paint and have a good look at it.
