nice bike trent. ease up on the same shots over and over though

[bmx]

Except for the fact that I DIDNT strip it. A friend did, plus i reckon it looks heaps good.

ah, no offence, but that is the UGLIEST stripped seat set-up i've seen on a bike. i got a kink seat because i was over the plastic seat fad. tailwhips to arse on plastic aren't fun

Naa thats cause ANGAD(dove haha), the fella who I bought my bike off didn't lube it up once or even setup the brake right. Id I cbf to do it it would work fine...

my mate Josh (ie Came from Mudgee) ran one and hated it, even when filled with lubed and tuned properly. went back to gyro.

I have one.
No problems at all with it except when putting the links on. Don't run in now though. (brakeless)
But yes it does sag a little bit if it's too long.

[rhysrhysbaby]

My geisha is running like crap at the moment, i really need to pull it all apart, replace all the insides and use some nice phils grease to make it ultra smooth.
Or it'd be great if hte Gsport freecoaster came out next week.

[Belle]

take the whole thing apart
take the seals of the bearings
wash in degreaser or soap
clean everything up
regrease everything
smoosh together.

i had a small mod on my geisha.
cut sponge up so it is a circle around the driver and chain
make sure the sponge is higher than the chain and that the hard
side of the sponge is on the driver side, soft side on the hub shell.
place the sponge on the driver before you put the driver in
screw driver in making sure the sponge is not going into the actual hub nor will it get caught up in the chain.
spray the bottom of the sponge with a chain spray or a light lubricant
and your done.

trust me it looks not so great but it works amaizing,
sort of like a dust cover for that big exposed bearing.

the sponge is on the driver so when your bike is moving forward the sponge is constantly greasing and cleaning the big bearing which usually dies the quickest.

my geisha had never ran as smooth without the sponge.

it also keeps your chain lubey.

if none of this has made sense say so and i will make one and get pictures.

[Lemontime]

Funny, but.

[whodoyouthinkyouare?]

Hey guys update,
Got the bearings for the freecoaster, what a drama to say the least! And what a fortune too, but they are lasting alot longer and seem alot smoother.
Also put the elementary stem on, snafu mobeus gyro and dragon fly twin cables with snafu lower cables on with the london mod. SWEET! So recommend the london mod, its tougher smoother and feels just like the linear slic i used to run!
Also Odyssey monolever medium lever is sweet. I love the dragon fly cable too, it uses the tension bolt on the brake lever to press it against the brake housing making for a tighter fitting as opposed to the snafu ones.
A HUGE thankyou too to Backbone Bmx for hooking me up with the lever and cable to get the giro up and running. They are the guys to talk to in Aus!
I also got some brown ruben fly grips but they are for the new bars later on in the year.
Enjoy :)

Because the fact you get offended as soon as the word scene kid is mentioned when your around proves to me a lot of things.

Even more so when they are "backed" by the whole crew.

Hubs:profile with Ti
Rims:fly
Bars:Slam XLT's
Stem : elementary
Brakes : evo 2's with dirt harry lever & TSC cable

Pedals: Twisted PC's. Anyone that posted crap about these pedals lasting well in terms of pedal grind wear was lying. they wear out unbelieveably quick.
Post+seat: Custom Macneil. Seat has no foam and is re-covered. Post has been cnc'd down for ultimate slamage.
Sprocket: snafu 25t, Ti driver is pretty worn out & the soft alloy in the snafu will fuck itself by the time the driver needs replacing. Colony Sprocket on back order.
yea, its also got grips and a headset and BB.

It weighed in at 10.6 once upon a time.

before.

new seat and post, seat tube mod, superlite chain,new Race forks, slam xlt's and the PC's.

so it had 41thermal post with shadow seat, a seat clamp,shadow half link chain,older race forks which were heavier than the new ones.standard slams and jimmy C pedals.

im sure someone can do the math, still can save a bit of weight here and there. lacing up some sevenka rims would save a bit in the rims and a heap shorter spokes, specially if i drill the rim out. then chuck some lighter folding tyres on i guess. meh.

I agree. I'm going to be picking up some shimano dx's soon, my mate has them and I'm a real fan and they last well.

[Belle]

my pedals don't touch the concrete
so they are the perfect pedal for me.

[Jordy]

thats good Belle. We were referring to them in terms of pedal grinds.

Glad your happy with them.

[Belle]

I am not the pedal grinder.
One question
if you pedal grind why not just on one side of the pedal :confused:

[rhysrhysbaby]

I get about 2 months out of a set of pc's with a heap of pedal grinds. One side of my left pedal is always cactus. I live with it as I like how the pc pedals feel, even when I ran jc's it was the same.

In other news my freecoaster is royally Fed. The gap differs between a quarter crank to 4 FULL cranks!!!!!!!!!!
Back to a cassete?!? If I can't get it fixed that'll be the option. 3 piece axle back in tomorrow and a complete overhaul if that doesn't solve it.

Driving back from cbr now. A road trip just to cbr is planned already!! Amazing place and no one seems to care where u ride.

[Belle]

rhys !
my coaster had the exact same problem
scared the shit out of me
i took the whole thing apart and it was something to do with the thing that grips to the hub shell ... the steel insert and clutch? thing had too much grease on it and it was causing it to slip a bit but sometimes i could get more than 4 whole rotations.

so i fixed that and it rolled together all good.

you could go back to cassette until the G coaster or the Shadow Coaster come out if you cant fix it.

[derelikt]

What do you expect dude? they are plastic, They're not made to last long. And i think they are great pedals for 25 bucks, I prefer them over my old JC's.

[Jordy]

What do you expect dude? they are plastic, They're not made to last long. And i think they are great pedals for 25 bucks, I prefer them over my old JC's.

I didnt expect anymore.

But I read all over Farkin the old reliable source, that they would hold up to more. so I was stating that they dont.

[Jordy]

I am not the pedal grinder.
One question
if you pedal grind why not just on one side of the pedal :confused:

trying to catch a slippery pedal isnt all that fun.

[fair_enough69]

back to the pedal debate ive had mine for close to 2months, i do lots of pedal grinds, and they still have ALOT of life left in them.

[leitch]

It's probably worth considering what you are pedal grinding on, also... Polished concrete ledges/steel coping/steel rails, or rough concrete boxes and benches? One will obviously tear the shit out of your pedals before the others even make a start.

[hubbie]

broke the 12kg barrier! yeshh. to be honest it's only 11.990kg according to the shop scales, achieved by drilling 60g out of my front wheel, haven't touched the back yet, but plenny of stuff planned. 350g out of the back with a KHE dirt most likely, bout a hundred out with hollowbite cranks, then i'll get a Ti spindle and save another 200g.

Stem is still stock, and I won't be replacing it... It holds the bars to the steerer - I'm happy with that. And don't knock the red forks, they were painted with the left over paint from your pikes!

Not a huge update, but I got bored so I painted my bars and forks yellow.

[rhysrhysbaby]

how tall are you rhys ?

195cm, so im rather tall.

[rhysrhysbaby]

I took my freecoaster off on Wednesday. Ive blown another inner driver bearing and one of the ball bearings in the axle isnt sticking out like it should, which is why i think im getting irregular engagement.
to solve all these issues im getting a new 3 piece axle, driver and hub bearings so its running super smooth. should be a good couple weeks before i get it all sorted as im going to be away again for the next 5 days.

I dont have a spare rear wheel, so im running my old front wheel with eastern axle adaptor nuts that i got a while back in a dans order.

overview. horrible paint job that im semi regretting already.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y41/iwearmoccos/part%202/DSCF0002-3.jpg

the rear wheel setup. scooting isnt fun.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y41/iwearmoccos/part%202/DSCF0003-2.jpg

Someone's been dreaming of a white Christmas.

[The Maxinator]

Wow, bill that is very white.
Very white and im digging it.

[Archi]

Ok, after snapping my chain today i have come to the conclusion that chainless riding is the shittest thing on earth. Anyone doing it on purpose should be shot.

Definitely concur.
Chainless, more like GAYNESS.

[derelikt]

Definitely concur.
Chainless, more like GAYNESS.

Lol, You dont have the skill to ride backwards.





I went chainless for a while today, Fakie manuals are fun.

[x]

In order of personal priority:
1. cassette
2. chainless
3. freecoaster


I love taking my chain off every now and then and having a muck around, I really enjoy it. I do not like freecoasters.
edit: but dont get me wrong, i love watching people like schwartz and pontyer shred, just not my thing.

[DJKrusn]

lmfao yer its the half link its gay
yer i wanted to see if the chain made a difference upside down and it dusnt seem to

[trent188]

chain less is crap becasuse u cant get around
and that white bike is nice but the problem is it will get tooo dirty too easy i had a white frame and i regreted it becuase my frame actually got stains of brown from dirt and mud

[Dan.]

lmfao yer its the half link its gay
yer i wanted to see if the chain made a difference upside down and it dusnt seem to

It will wear it out quicker.

[sheepy]

sorry belle but im not digging the white, just seems too much for me

[Lemontime]

I don't think belle rides dirt, hence breakless..

[Belle]

i understand.
it is just like having a black frame,stem,seat clamp,seat post,spokes,pedals,bars and forks but instead white right?


i find riding trails brake less the same as riding them with brakes.

[hubbie]

he rides his dirt quarter.

yep fly post

absolutely love the seat, slim and just stealth as all f**k, quite comfy too, being quite tall its physically impossible for me to pedal while sitting on it so it doesnt get a lot of use

[rhysrhysbaby]

Worlds longest cable

[shmeado]

lol, so very true.

[sheepy]

haha i hadn't tied it to the frame, so it looks huge, still is big, we'll see what happens

[leitch]

Nice ride, Sheepy! Just get rid of the rear tyre (if not the front, too..). I put a big ass hole through the tyre (the tyre... not the tube) on my second ride.. They're horrendous tyres.

[Disturbed.Rider]

speaking of which; what should I upgrade?

[Antho188]

speaking of which; what should I upgrade?


nothing as yet.. im gunna be getting bigger bars, bigger are the go....(28" wide and 8" rise,)

but yeahh.. bars, maybe forks? new tyres, grips, maybe seat, depends on what you do/dont like, like if you want to loose some weight in your bike, theres some things..

[Disturbed.Rider]

Well, my stem weighs as much as me, so that g2g.
I'm getting new tyres ASAP.
A little further down the track I'm going to get new fork

but apart from that I'll only upgrade as I break things.

[hubbie]

yeah, tyres and pedals, and brakes don't look like they'd work very well ;)

[Dan.]

finaly got matching grips for the first time in a while aswell

[chuck_]

Got a spec list on that?

[bmx>mtb]

fit flow after market frame

yeh theres a red seat post in there too
the bars have been fine there only the 26"s but no probs with bending and such, they didnt come with warranty cause there the light ones so thats not a good sign though.

I built up the bmx out of the box at work on Saturday for floor stock and immidiately fell in love with it

Got paid on Sunday

Bought it on Monday with an odyssey right hand rear monolever trigger

Had its first proper test rider today. It goes very well. Rides smooth and feels great


Upgrades to come are:

- Brown Animal Edwin grips
- Black Odyssey Cielencki custom pedals
- 25 t Black profile sprocket
- Fly ruben tires
- Eastern rear wheel with a 9t driver

Then I think she will be set. But I will probably be even more hooked and buy it more things :p

All I can say is I cant beleive it took me so dam long to get into BMX :o

[rhysrhysbaby]

Cut the brake mounts off it and itd be real nice.

How's the shadow front tyre? My dirt path is wearing pretty quick

[hubbie]

Who's gonna be first to run the new Copper Lumberjack bars? Could look so sweet!

[Belle]

I will be the guinea pig for the four piece anytime.

[rhysrhysbaby]

Who's gonna be first to run the new Copper Lumberjack bars? Could look so sweet!

My bars are ever so slightly bent and ill get lumberjacks eventually, but there is no way I'm running copper bars!!!

Does anyone know the release date of the 4 piece lumber jacks?
or if odyssey are even releasing them?

[sketchyC]

Cut the brake mounts off it and itd be real nice.

How's the shadow front tyre? My dirt path is wearing pretty quick

Yeah, i need to get a grinder. Then ill grind them down.
Yeah the tyre is great. Really grippy, however on the sides of the tyre it is kinda slippery. it works great for sliders though. Give me a bit to really give the tyres a go, then ill give you a proper review.

[bazz1990]

well TRIPLE SIX SENT MY NEW FRAME AND MILLIONS OF PARTS TODAY .well maybe not millions .They sent them today to my work today .Should get them soon i am getting all new part except for my colony official forks there only 2 weeks old any way.The fly frame i am getting is the teirra frame i think its the new one out.Has any one got one and any reveiws would be good

[Belle]

What happened to the reverse hub?

[Ruckus_Lord]

Over the idea of free coaster + cbf with maintenance + I'm no cheater + i don't think I'm Ian Schwartz.

Good enough?

[derelikt]

Bu you paid for it yah?

[Ruckus_Lord]

No lol i made the decision ages ago, like before I made the order.

[Cameo]

Tierra's are good... Ill post up mine soon

new frame already?

didn't you only just get your last one (like 6 months ago)?

[rhysrhysbaby]

Over the idea of free coaster + cbf with maintenance + I'm no cheater + i don't think I'm Ian Schwartz.

Good enough?

youve probably made the right decision.
if i didnt like rolling backwards so much i'd be on a cassette hub in a second purely because of the maintenance issues with a freecoaster.

[Belle]

you will be happy with your rant.
i roll backwards just as much if not more with my ranter.
