sk8ing mtber, looks nice, but why did you get a chrome rim on the front if you don't have a front brake (they are a bit heavier aren't they?). How come all of your frames cracl?:p

If thats your race bike why are you running such small gearing?
Click to expand...
coz big sprockets look shit in my opinion. i think 25-9 is the best thing since sliced bread lol & i like the gear ratio
+it saves a little weight..

I was building myself up a new race bike.. & i get stuff wholesale, i thought i would give it a go to see how it would hold up to racing.. im pretty sure im the only person in QLD racing on 25-9.. i went the the aussie titles & not a single person had the gearing , which i found surprising..

ive had it for like 2 years. with no problems whatsoever..
i always get people telling me there theory on the gearing, telling me i will snap chains & wear out sprockets & wear out the 9tooth itself.. & saying its not safe.. & it will affect my pedaling. bollocks! to the haters i say. lol.
im the one riding the bike! not them. i trust it %100.. they have no hard evidence at all & not a leg to stand on..
sadly i am getting rid of the 25-9.. coz im putting dura-ace cranks on it & the smallest they fit is 39.
i wanna see how the road bike cranks hold up LOL

cracked frame, once again. getting it rewelded. gonna powdercoat it metallic orange, or just get a light blue Fit Series3. try more towards the S3.

If you cracked a Norco and a Kink, IMO you shouldn't get an S3, they probably couldn't take the abuse that you give your bikes (not to be offensive). I read a thread on another website asking if the S3 would hold up for dj, and most people said that it wouldn't, as it is a very lightweight frame and isn't quite as strong. I know Aitken does massive jumps on his, but he is extremely smooth. Anyway its just my opinion.

yeah, i kinda turned away from that idea. i'll just get something under 6lbs that can take a beating.

and for those saying flyouts, fuck you. that was one skatepark where the only things you can do are flyouts. i can't flair back into a quater pipe, and i cant flip a spine.

I dont mean to be a dick, but most posts you make involve a 'look at me i can do backies' remark of some kind. it looks like your trying to rub your "skills" in peoples faces. Hence - the flyout remarks.

Oh, and surely if there is a spine at a skatepark, you can just do something else on it? is it mandatory to backie every session? man up.

yeah but stalls and grinds look boring in photos, unless you have a really cool camera. but its not like whats in the pictures is all we do.
and that guy (X i think) asked how i cracked them, and it was flips though. it puts the most stress on it, and sometimes you nosedive it and yeah. i wasnt trying to say "im the flip master, look at me", its just how it happened to both

well, i hate it when you see someone with a hell good bike, but you never see pictures of them riding it.
but then, why dont you say it to people who post pictures of themselves dropping curbs or jumping a 2 foot jump? i mean, why post? why have a photo section?
like i only go on a few sections of this site, and the photos is one of them. so i like to contribute at least.
