Aah, sorry mate.
It was a statement that wouldn't be out of place on a lot of message boards, and there are a lot of accounts with similar, simple usernames that pop up and are spammers. Sorry

Getting a dually or a fixie or sumfin trendy? I'm about to go back to the HT as my dual crown forks on my new bike don't work(again).
Yeah, something trendy. As much as I don't really want to drop the trusty HT, I want to have knees by the time I'm 40.

Likes Bikes and Dirt
they will defiantly do the job fine
Put it this way. They won't break. But unless you do some sick tweaking they won't perform the best. Great for the price though. I'd say get em.

doesn't seem like much of a DH HT spec change?
How the hell did you crack the frame? STPs are a pretty beast bike despite what people say.

Only just watched the vid, it is pretty shit riding really, I'm sure the video doesn't do it justice blah blah blah but that all looked pretty simple.
Yep, agree. But it was in comparison to the guy on the Commencal!
White bike was hardtail, red bike was Commencal Supreme Mini. Hardtail was going bigger. One of those drops was fairly serious.
Wow, beerburrum is a mega smooth track. You can easily hold dudes on dualies there due to how much pedaling there is. Um, I'd try and work on keeping your feet on with flats, but clips are brilliant too. I run either, with a preference for clips (yet I use flats more often). What pedals and shoes? Cause it does make a difference.
i was running the stock pedals wellgo i think and my old worn kustoms lol
new shoes would probs help heaps but r clips worth getting
Clips are brilliant, but they take a bit of commitment to get used to em (doesn't take long though). I've always been able to unclip mid-air despite what people say. Plus clips will probably prevent lots of crashes.
Most Wellgo pedals are actually pretty good, the b54 and the MG-1 are good. But if they aren't that new pedals n shoes will make a big difference. Most people run 5.10s. I think they are good, but only marginally better than a lot of other shoes. I like Vans myself. So much more comfy, but still grippy.
