    That looks spectacular!! What size frame is it? My black Riot frame is on its way (it shipped over a week ago), but I'm still not sure I got the right size.

    21.5" or 22" TT on Blk Mrkt Riot?

    I have not seen anyone riding a Riot or a Mob at my local park, which is why I have posted this question. I would love to test one out, but I'm also getting anxious to start building, so I thought I'd see what other people's opinions are. Thanks for your help.

    21.5" or 22" TT on Blk Mrkt Riot?

    After all of your replies, my thinking now is that a 22" TT can't feel that much different from a 21.5" in terms of flickability and overall handling, but might provide that extra bit of clearance for x-ups and bar spins. I mean, will I really notice .5" when spinning and jumping? The crank...

    wheel-building questions

    Thanks for all of your replies thus far. They are definitely helping me zero in on my final build specs. I've only heard good things about the Hope Pro II hubs, but I've read mixed reviews about the Revolvers--namely, riders have complained about the bearings wearing quickly. Any experience...

    wheel-building questions

    Thanks for the input Mikey_C. I only weigh between 150-155 lbs. I'm not the smoothest just yet, so I do case every now and again. Do you run dedicated SS hubs? I'm asking because my other option is purchasing a cheap factory built set like the Azonic Outlaws and just using a conversion kit...

    wheel-building questions

    I'm in the process of building up a single-speed dirt jump/street bike and the only part(s) I'm hung up on are the wheels. First of all, are 36h rims that much stronger than 32h rims? Secondly, I'm having trouble deciding on hub/rim combos. I'm currently looking at a Hope Pro II SS rear hub...
