My little bro had some wheel covers on his huffy bmx back in the 80's - you need something like that on there. Try Walmart.
Or maybe some fairings on the plates...
Okay - sounds like I'll go with what I've got. The stock springs were silver (no paint whatsoever). The one's I installed are clearly green, so I'll play with the oil height and damping...
Just got my 2005 888 installed on my bike and got ready to swap the springs for a pair of green ones that I bought. These apparently are supposed to be firm(?).
The stock springs were silver, and I assumed they were "mediums", but now the green ones feel softer than the stock ones and I've...
Thanks for the info. I exhausted all of my resources last week, to find out that Diabolous are available (at $350 from my LBS) and 100mm BB's from FSA will be available mid November. Truvativ didn't have an eta. Race Face has no more stock...
So, I put a Truvativ and FSA bb on backorder...
Does nobody have these anymore? I'm going to try and make profiles work, but it sure would be nice if somebody could tell me where to find an ISIS 100x146 spindle bb??
Thanks -

Sweet. I'm originally from Star Lake (like 60 miles from Whiteface) and went to school in Potsdam. I skipped many a Friday Spanish class to ski Whiteface when I was in college and love the hill. DH wasn't happening so much up there in the early/mid 90's, but I know it could be awesome. I'm...
Same experience - all they did was bag on Progressive until I told them I was sponsored by them - and then they just said that their stuff was better anyway.
I got a boxcart with a x-heavy spring and the thing scraped the inside of my fork so bad it was like I had stiction damping...
Ok - here's the weird part. The XTR is stamped 1.37 (inch diameter) and the Ultegra is stamped 36 (mm). The TPI on both is the same - 24.
I put the caliper on both and the Ultegra is about 1 mm larger on the thread (I don't have a dial or digital at home). Is this difference between...
Alright, I'm getting my new Stab Supreme all ready to ride and I decided to replace my 116 XTR BB (M952) with a 118.5 Ultegra (BB6500). I've worked on bikes for probably 5 years and feel confident in my wrenching abilities.
That being said, I remove the XTR BB, pull out the Ultegra BB, go to...
Does anybody know the OD of the MTX bashring,or the next smaller one?
I'm trying to determine if I can use an e13 bashring with an MRP Dual Slalom guide (e13 outer plate, MRP inner plate). I think the e13 will take a better beating and if its the same diameter the rollers will match up...
I purchased a cool pipe angle tool (basically a plumb bob/protractor tool in a 4"x4" square). It measures down to a half-degree and provides a really good reference for course set-up. Costs about $10 and be found at Home Depot or Lowes.
- I know, really nerdy :rolleyes: but I got the idea...
