Woo 1000th reply to the thread!

Sweet bikes everyone!

Edit* nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oo too late, im gonna go cut myself :(

[norcotim]

looking farkin sick trailstar the white paint job looks mad well done mate

[Lemontime]

stolen cranks


Dude, you shouldn't steal things..



GRAHAHAHA!
I had to say it, Nice ride.

[poopoohead]

I wish the KHE tires and the plastic pedals and all those other cool things you can get for bikes over in europe were so easy to get here.
trailst4r did you have to order your things over the internet in germany?

hmmm i'd say i buy 50% at my local shop and 50% at onlineshops.
Almost every shop here can get fly,odyssey,sunday and felt because they have the same distributor like sram/rockshox.
Most Shops can get Khe over here.

the other 50% i buy at german onlineshops.
You get stuff from Wtp,Eastern, Macneil,Animal,Volume,twenty,animal for good prices.

stuff from usa (fit,s&m,metal,Profile,etc) is reaaaaaaaaaaally expensive over here: for example fit s3 frame at empire costs around 350usd. if i'd buy one in a shop here i'D have to pay around 700usd.

or profile mini hubs 250usd at empire, 450usd in shops here.

I'd never buy usa stuff here.

So we dont get every trendy stuff really easy. only odyssey,fly,etc :P
(we were the first country after usa where the lumberjacks were released^^)

we've got KHE tyres here at the shop in Syd. I'm thinking of switching my rear to a KHE Dirt

[rhysrhysbaby]

We seem to be able to get everything here in australia except for the Twisted PC pedals and as far as im aware the odyssey distributor isn't bringing any in.

[poopoohead]

I can't wait till strictly gets some khe tires in.

They've pretty much proven themselves as one of the best tires out thanks to just about every second rider in europe and the states running them.

[Lemontime]

My hopes and dreams have been crushed. :(
Strictly just ran out of Kink Transitions... :'(
Anyone know another place in Aust. that sells them?
Thanks...

[Lemontime]

That was like.. 3 months ago though.. My liking of BMX has increased.
And hell, how did YOU get into BMX?

[whatbrah]

Had one before i started mtb.

[Lemontime]

Yeah, so did I.
By calling me a trend whore you're calling BMX a trend.
By calling BMX a trend you're insulting 95% of people in this topic.
Get one up ya'.

Edit: It's been like, an hour. I'ma say I pwnt him ;D

[bmx]

whatbrah - another shit talking faggot

[Lemontime]

BMX - Never lies <;D

On another note,
Transition next week =3

[MWAH]

These are the only 2 BMX'S i could find but there is a 3rd one somewhere in the yard.

[sawtell]

not my place to say something

[whatbrah]

whatbrah - another shit talking faggot

peter - another sexy kid ;)

[johnny]

And with that, we say goodbye to MR. bmx.

Whatbrah, you can pull your farking head in too. Stop being a stupid kid and calling people useless names like trendwhore and what ever.

As a matter of fact EVERYONE CAN PULL THEIR FARKING HEADS IN!

Next farking idiot that hacks on anyone about choice of bike, riding style or any of that immature shit will be kicked off the site for good too. That includes you sxereturn. Fair dinkum mate, you really are too old and too smart to carry on with childish shit like that.

Now, talk bikes and talk nice or fark off!

I wish we had the GOOD Johnny as our Prime Minister :(

[johnny]

whatbrah, before you make another username and post more crap here and I re-re-ban you and delete what ever you post, think about this; everyone now has your IP address and knows that you live in the Carlingford Epping area of Sydney. ;)

c211-..........apology has since been recieved. Amazing how when anonymity is removed, tough guys become a little less tough.....Hopefully he can now relax and join in the forum and be cool.

Sorry guys, this thread should be back on track as soon as Mummy calls this silly little kiddy for a bath....

No where near as good as your guys bikes but it's solid and holds up to what I give it.

Trailst4r your bike is un-farking-real :eek:

[Lemontime]

Well, here's mine.
Diamondback Session 04..
Possibly the worst bike ever made ;)
Best part would have to be the grips ;D
I hate this bike more than anything, ever..
But, Kink Transition NEXT WEEK! :D

[x]

Geisha is being built up at lbs right now, and when it's built I'm spraying the rim black, should look nice...

[hubbie]

Johnny, can we delete all those useless posts and this one once you've read it.

and why was BMX banned and for how long? did i miss something apart from his single post? Peter is generally a valuable member of our community, i'd hate to see him lost

[johnny]

Yeah, when I get around to it.

The post that bmx made was enough for an outright ban. I too was surprised at what he said, but he still said it and that's that. HE can always register under a different name and we may turn a blind eye to it (yes we do know when this happens), but he has to watch his mouth this time. No derogatory comments that villify minority groups and no posting childish abuse.

[hubbie]

i know its not my business, so i'll stay out of it, but its sad to see him get an outright...

[johnny]

Yeah, I guess I've got my school holiday head on and have much less tolerance. Tell you what, I'll make it a week ban because he hasn't really done anything else to warrant an outright ban and other than that post, he seems pretty decent. If anyone has his MSN or anything, let him know that he can come back in a week.

[Sunday!]

ahhh the real johnny comes out, mr nice guy ;)
haha
peoples reply to my freecoaster thread... looking at you belle......

[Trailst4r]

you can get banned for this small sentence?
:D

[fair_enough69]

yeh johnny i have his msn ,, i will tell him :p

[mtberdave]

i got it aswell its a race! nah lol

[Rik]

you can get banned for this small sentence?
:DWant to try your luck? Things are getting dumb around here and to cut the crap harsh rules have to be enforced. Play nice and everyone gets along.

(nice pic Johnny ;))

[rhysrhysbaby]

I purchased some fish scales. 13kg. It does sound kinda heavy, but really it isnt. I could easily save a few kg with some simple changes though i dont think i will, or not consciously anyway, I'm more than happy with teh way it rides at the moment
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y41/iwearmoccos/DSCF0001-3.jpg

Also took some nicer photos of its current good looks.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y41/iwearmoccos/DSCF0004-3.jpg
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y41/iwearmoccos/DSCF0006-3.jpg
I would like a new front wheel, but my car needs some cash put into it so that may have to wait a little while.
My geisha is running going great. THe only issue i have with it is that going fast backwards is real scary.

[Trailst4r]

i really like your bike, but 13kg sounds heavy for a brakeless pegless bike. dont know why, but thats strange :D

edit: ok, you have heavy tires, and powerbites. but dont think that weights 2kgs compared to mine.(and i'm shure mine's below 11kg)
cant believe those 13kgs..


hmm everybódy seems to have the problem that the geisha needs some time untill it works correctly. maybe its a problem at khe.

pshhhhht: a big whole load of khe reverse rhd + white body that arrived here in germany didnt work correctly. Iwouldnt buy one of those "first generation" reverses..

[rhysrhysbaby]

cant believe those 13kgs..
..

Yeah it does sound heavy, it doesnt feel heavy though compared to other bikes ive ridden.
Alot of hte parts im running, there is a lighter substitute.

I could loose 10oz in switching up tyres.
7oz switching to a Ti spindle for my hollowbites.
My fork is a 2006 dirt fork that comes in at 42oz, easily lose 10oz there by switching to a fit blade or something of the a similar weight.
My bars are 32oz whereas the lumberjacks are about 28oz i believe. theres another 4oz.
So lets say thats about 30oz which is a 850gram saving.
Then there is my front wheel where i could easily cut down some weight, which a nice simple hub and another hazard lite.
My seatpost has never been cut either, theres a heap of metal hidden in the seattube!

And the cost of doing all that, including a new front wheel would be about $700AUS i think, hardly worth it really.

EDIT! should have my hands on a digital fish scale in a couple weeks, so we'll hopefully either confirm that my bike is fat or that the $13.50 fish scales are wrong!

[Lemontime]

Rhys, that really is one of the nicest bikes I have ever seen.. Good work! :O

[timtamtom]

heres some pics of my old bike and the one i've got now ...

Sunday! your wheel-mobile is the sweetest bmx i've seen. Period.

[beaty]

This is my Mongoose. Haha shes a bit ghetto these days. Only a few mods such as FSA sealed 3 piece crank, Oddysee 41 thermal forks, Haro slim bars, and my pride and joy, my L plate on the frame. Im planing on changing the grips because they'r obviously stuffed and most likely a new seat and also some new tires (hopefully a maxxis slick on the back and a big chucky tire on the front). But yea the rest of the bike is stock.

yesssssssss:D

[fair_enough69]

fark that khe is soooo pimp, nicest complete ive ever seen, although i think it may be tad overpriced, eg take the black peral ltd, for $1800, for the extra $650 you vould get hazards built unto the ody hubs and wombolts/new cranks.

But you are getting a Ti axel, KHE Tyres, KHE flexi spokes and the Construct Mag pedals for a start.

Also can someone tell me if the Mirraco/ fork is full Sanko Crmo? ( i can only see the spec listed as DB Crmo)

Cheers xero

[fair_enough69]

the ltd one has colony offical forks, and the frame is dardy as haha

but nar the khe is pimp as

[voice]

my new ride just painted it and whacked it together with a couple of old spares and new parts,

frame:gt fueler 05 model
fork:fit bike slow series fork with out the stickers
rims:some random front rim and a sun big city on formula back rim
cranks: cr'mo one peice cranks and a old fly 36 sprocket
and most of the other stuff is fairly just random parts.

take your brakes off and get gyro and i think i should get another spray job :p probly sky blue frame and white bars and forks looks sweet :cool:

looking good as usual trailstar.
today a skateboard shot into my rear rim and left a small chip. but other than that the paint holds up great.

Hope you got up and decked the kid, Bill! A small chip can cost hundreds to fix!

a chip in the paint that is.

New stuff: Geisha coaster with double butted spokes laced to my old hazard.
Brakes have been taken off again as you can see.
Feels very nice and smooth to ride :)
I am considering painting my rims the same colour as my bars and forks. How would this go on the chrome rim?
Specs on request..

Painting rims is easy and looks sick if you don't run brakes.You have to claean every bit of crap on the rim, off which took me a while. Then spray it with a few coats of primer, or the paint will flake.I did my front demo rim mat black and it hasn't chipped or flaked or scratched to the chrome so far and its been like 2-3 months,If you look closely you can see the primer around where the tire was tuff to put on but that was my silly mistake.

[Trailst4r]

... i didnt even use primer^^. just sprayed the colour on the wheel

Well I thought i'd post my new ride, haven't had a proper ride on it yet as it is raining! :mad:
Frame: Eastern Element
Fork: Eastern 4130
Bars: Hoffman (Eventually changing to white slam XLT)
Cranks: Primo Hollow Bites
Pedals: Primo Tenderisors
Front Wheel: Odyssey Hazard Lite 36 Spoke
Rear Wheel: Profile SS Laced To Odysey Midway
Seat: United (Changing to Odyssey Senior, Friday!)
Post: El Cheapo
Tyres: Maxxis Mirracle, Odysey Dirt Path, Odysey Aitken
Grips: Primo Wall
Chain: Kool
Stem: Fit S2 (Changing eventually!)

http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa17/jackdillonbike/RIMG0960.jpg

Other things to come, changing to 28-9 instead of 33-11. Probably going to get a tree-lite sprocket, and somewhere along the lines of a chromoly profile 9t driver.

Tyres: Maxxis Mirracle, Odysey Dirt Path, Odysey Aitken

How can you have 3 tires and only two wheels ?

Oh and I'm not sure if its a custom job but why would Eastern put gyro tabs on a frame with no brake mounts :S

The front is the dirt path as pictured, thats just another tyre I run. Brake mounts have been taken off, gyro tabs have aswell but aren't finished yet.
Edit: Rear is miracle.

yeh the pedals are really good, they grip really well and are pretty slim looking. i just wanted to try something besides fly pedals because all my mates seem to have them atm. cost around the same as flys aswell

[Trailst4r]

[Sam02]

Hey boys. have been sniffing around this thread for ages. I am soon to make the switch to the darkside, wih a friend building me a nice 20". Hoffman rythem frame, with various bits and peices on it, I am really looking forward to it.

Wat is the frame like? Its an older model, probly 03 or 04. It has external headset or something, is this a big disadvantage?

You will soon see my beast on this thread, so keep your eyes peeled for a bmx n00b.

[bmx]

disadvantage is weight. be heavy as. but pretty solid

[fair_enough69]

i just got a new coalition hub.. hell pimp, getting built up this week.

the chrome on the cranks is a bit of though.

^ Looks so nice and simple, I was thinking about doing the same thing with my 4seasons ( having the bar and fork teal /aqua and spraying frame black)..

Yeah, I just sold my mtb forks finally so I'll probably be getting some profile lites in black, or flys, or wombolts... What do you guys reckon for cranks?

[Alex_npj]

I had Chrome 175mm Profiles on my MTB, I found them to be great, looked nice, goodish weight, tough only once did they come loose, they NEVER creaked or what ever, Ti spindle waas so nice to.. If you get Profiles with Allen Key, make sure you have a 5.5 size blody americans

I just orderd Wombolts, in black and 180mm, I have heard alot of bad things about them eg they hread easily, and there two peice etc another thing I heard was on the side it doesn't screw up, it's rather chunky and you can hurt the inside of your ankle easily..

[x]

I've been looking at cranks, and I think I'll get some demolition medial lites or flys.

Demolition medial lites are 26.3oz and $175 usd, with a 19mm ti spindle meaning I would need to go to the hassle of changing over bb's again..
Flys are 165 usd (10 bucks cheaper), 27.2oz and have a 22mm spindle to fit my current bb. But I've seen some issues with rust etc?

What do you guys think, the demos which are lighter, maybe stonger (?), a bit more expensive, and I have to change over bb's, or flys?

edit: it's not possible to get a hop up kit so that I can run a 19mm spindle in a 22mm bb, is it??

[Sunday!]

Personally i would never run fly's x. Just because ive seen so many threads on bmx forum with people who have broken them, ive never run them, and i dont plan on anytime soon. The demo's look really nice, but again i havn't run them either, if your only looking at fly's and demo's then id get the demo's.
But on the other hand, i do run wombolts, wich i am really happy with, only had one small problem with the bolt loosening a while ago, but the cranks still never came loose, i think the wedge system ody use really helps this.
Now ive done the bolt up really tight and it hasn't loosened at all.
The paint on them lasts ages, and doesn't rub off from shoes very easily.
So i'd say get the demo's or get some wombolts, but stay away from fly's.

Also hows the coaster going?
edit: you also have a flat front tyre

Belle, your bike is awesome no doubt, but i think you've posted it up a few too many times now

[Belle]

yes that is very true i wont post ever again.;)

[i like dirt]

Hey Belle how did you paint your rims?? did you rip all the spokes out paint them then re-lace them to the hub or just paint them as they are?

If you did paint them as they were, how did you do it?:confused:

[bmx]

yes that is very true i wont post ever again.;)

no not that. just to every week. unless your like Trailst4r and have a radical change every 9 days

that helped and did you use any specific brand spray paint? one more question how did you hang it up when you painted it?

thanks

[Belle]

i used tempo Pontiac blue white and clear.
i held it up bye putting a hanging piece of wire through the hollow axle but you could just put it through the valve hole.

Oh, I misread it. I thought u meant throwing the trick until you land it, just keep going, pushing it harder, crashing etc.

Not literally throwing it, But even then its not as bad as ghostying it. At least wen you throw it you are angry from not being able to land the trick.

But im over it. Thanks for the argument/discussion!

[RevellBikes]

wen you throw it you are angry

messican bars!!! hehehe

[julianwisbey]

what are messican bars ?

[Lemontime]

I just weighed my bike and it's pretty much bang on 13 Kilos. Feels really good in my opinion :)
Also removed my pegs ;)

He meant Mexican, its when your bars are just behind parallel with your forks. Its all personal preference however, what ever makes your bike feel good.

[Lemontime]

I wasn't sure whether to post this in this thread or in the ECCD seat thread where everyone seems to be posting their seats.
But, my seat is rather annoying me!
It's too wide and whenever I ride I rub my legs on the sides and end up losing lots of skin and it's ouchie!
I'd like something pretty thin but that I can sit on without my arse dying.

I'd be happy to buy a pivotal seat combo off one of you guys for fair cheap, but if possible I'd like to get something with rails so I don't have to buy a new post.

Here is my current seat:

[Lemontime]

For Freeee? :D

looking nice lemontime and x.
bye the way why dont you like your coaster are you having any problems with it?

[x]

not really any problems, it's just not for me, I prefer cassettes.

[Belle]

ah sweet dude.
when you move your wheel when its off the ground bye hand can you feel that it is not as smooth as say a cassette ?
my bearings just seam to die..
and i really need a solid axle as mine is bent which is not cool!
does anybody know where can i buy one and does anybody have a price?
one more question do ceramic bearings outlast normal bearings
and are they worth the price also is anybody running them ?
cheeeeers..

Yeah same with me. But thats not the main reason Im getting rid of it. I just prefer pedalling backwards, then I can control my speed, and I can turn round way smoother without trying to halfcab while going like a biziollion kmh.
Plus I get to click around everyhwhere haha. :rolleyes: Plus less maintenance.
