I recently purchased Weyless B-37 Pedals and during installation noticed the washers I used (which didn't come with the pedals) became bent. After removing pedals, I noticed the base of where the washer sits flat against the pedal threads does not have a traditional round flat base, therefore...
I was wandering if there was a standard BB length for mountain bike frames regardless of the frame's actual BB width. I have four different mtb frames and noticed they all had slightly different widths at the bottom bracket area ranging between 2.6" and 2.9" wide while I was deciding on what to...
I happened to find this website that gives a pretty technical description of BMX sizing and gearing. The website is intended for bmx racers, but still valuable whether you are on the track, street, or park.

I assume you never disassembled a fork before. I once serviced Rock Shox foks (replacing oil), which involved removing lowers, replacing oil and seals. If you can follow directions carefully and have the right parts, I would say go for it, but make sure you study the service manual until you...
As a pure mountain biker and soon-2-be BMX'r (shopping for parts to customize over the Winter), from my experience, I would have to agree with most of the suggestions in not spending too much for your first "descent" mountain bike. I never got fitted for a bike, and regret doing so...had to go...
I agree with T1maglio, Most mountain bikes especially customized will cost over $1000. I have two mountain bikes, which I custom built...one cost $1,150 and the other $900.
I did visit the bmx online store, www.danscomp.com, which Cru Jones suggested and glad I found it. Great selection of...
Finally got a Haro DJ frame (26") to build up over the winter, and interested in getting into the sport of BMX. I know very little about the sport, and not completely sure where to start. I custom build mountain bikes for a living, but never dealt with BMX...ideally, I prefer to buy a complete...
I didn't mean for my opinion to offend anyone. I do respect everyone involved in designing, building, and maintaining trails. If it came across as such, I apologize.
If I had time, I would contribute to building trails myself. But I don't go out there like a rebel trying to vandalize It's...

It appears they upgraded the cartridge damping, the travel, adjustment, and lowers for the 2007, which is nearly twice the cost as the 2006 model (QR, 145mm, $230 Pricepoint).
The Nixon line of forks haven't gotten very good...

I agree with the fact that it takes a lot of effort to maintain trails, but the truth of the matter is, BMXer's don't own trails, and the same goes for mountain bikers. I am sure there are trails all over the place with different set ups. The plan was that those interested in learning to DJ...
This is an update to my previous request, where I needed suggestions on some DJ / FR wheels. After checking out the website, Universalcycles.com, I noticed they had many rims to choose from (even 24"), however, the rims alone cost over $50, hubs...another $100 (pair), and 32/36 spokes, not to...
Hi, could you e-mail me pics if the '05 STP 2 if still available and also list complete specs, payment method + shipping? Were you willing to negotiate on the price? I prefer to use Paypal to complete the sale for safety and security of both parties.
Thanks,
I found a website that displays the difference between SPT1/2/3,
http://www.pinkbike.com/news/article1942.html
Apparently, there is a slight difference between STP 3 and STP 1 or 2
STP 3 chainstay yoke is weaker and the down tube is not as strong as the 1 or 2, and uses a standard head tube...
