  1. Riding goals for 08. 1) Hire a personal trainer and try to make mains at some nationals in 34X. 2) Start doing some ground and ramp freestyle this year on my Haro Master new build. 3) Win State Champion 34X. 4) Finish building the BMX track that i started. 5) Learn to ride clipped in. "never tried" 6) Make some trips to some nice ramp parks that you only hear about or see on TV. "dont even know where to start" 7) Make the main event at the Grand Nationals in 27-34X.
  2. Any 20" BMX bike old or newer. " EXCLUDING the infamous " Eastern TI reaper"
  3. I am having a full bmx track built and need to know where i can get plans for a full gate/ starting system. I am having it built so i need the plans for it. Does anyone know where i can find this? I tried google, but couldnt find anything. Thanks
  4. Yes i meant Bulldog brake. That works just as good as a Nippon? Thanks
  5. All of the Dia Compe Nippons seem to feed from the top, so if you use the hollow stem bolt and need it to come up from the botton, how would this work? The quick release is riveted and it looks like the Nippons feed brake cable from the top only, but this cant be right. please see the pic and help explain to me how the cable comes up through bottom. Thanks
  6. Does anyone know if there was a weight limit to the Brand x forks with the aluminum crown? I cant find info on that either. Thanks
  7. Im looking for the best front brake i can buy for my old school freestyle build. The last front brake i had 15 years ago was a dia compe Nippon. So i saw the bulldog and was really just wondering whats the best front brake to go with, that doesnt require the weld on 990 mounts. Any inputs?
  8. How much does a brand-x titanium fork weigh? I cant find any old info on this.
  9. I dont think i will be crying to you guys but if you have a better suggestion on a seatpost that is not laid back but you can offset the seat further back, let me know.
  10. The seatpost is a Thomson set-back seat post 26.8mm . I was really wanting to get one of those instead of using a laid back seatpost. It is slightly angled back. Do you guys know of another seatpost that looks like that one? Im even willing to do some grinding on the seatpost to shave off that millimeter. Thanks
  11. Its only a millimeter, so i was thinking since there is usually a little play in the frames, that this would work. The seatpost i want only comes in the 26.8. Haro frame is a 25.4mm for the seatpost. Thanks for any help.
  12. I cant see the pic from here at work. I cant wait to check them out when i get home. Thanks guys, im lovin the inputs.
  13. Its in Louisiana. I have the area, the track design and everything marked off. Should i set a 1 ft level dirt surface in a big lot square and then put the jumps in where they go? I was thinking i needed to put a big flat dirt surface first of a foot or so. What about drainage? I have seen drainage pipes on some tracks as well but dont know how they are set up. IE: With holes all along the PVC or what the exact setup is.
  14. Mine is 19 lbs with pads and plate as well. Lizard skins carbon and Bailey plate. I spent a lot of money on it over the winter and i just have the powder coating left on the frame or polishing, but i cant find a polishing service that i can send it off to.
