Thanks man, so it's basically kinda like BB reducer cups to go from a STD to EURO BB right?macmx said:Oh yeah!
There are 3 long needle like skrews to attach/tighten the BB cups together. Real simple. You tighten those skrews once you BB has been moved enogh so the chain is tight, the tighten the cranks like normal 3 pieces.
tu comprends?

I wouldn't mind either... :evil:Knuckleslammer said:Now if I was Donald Trump, then I wouldn't mind getting that M3 with the supercharger

macmx said:Yes.
All BMW's rule, I agree.
But there are a few that stand out in a claas of their own:
TMX
Big Link
Race Link
Mini Link FQ
:love:
new project...perhaps a BMW bmx....?sikocycles said:I have 3 out of the 4 plus a parkbike and a new project on the way....
It does not have a supercharger nor does it need one. Trust me!Knuckleslammer said:Oh and BTW, I wasn't referring to BMW (the car)
Just the bikes. I hate cars, nothing but depreciating piles of metal. Bike is a much better investment, and much easier to clean/maintain, and will last a hell of a lot longer, well, maybee. Now if I was Donald Trump, then I wouldn't mind getting that M3 with the supercharger

thanks ! it is 58 pounds & that is a 20mm x 6" seismic front hub. Links are sweet! go for it!Duzitall said:Joel,
What are those hubs you got there?
How much does your awesome TMX weigh?
I want a Killer Race Link!
Thanks, Chris
You can never have enough Brooklyn's.Shortbus said:see, I think the point a lot miss is that once you get a brooklyn mini link, there is no need for other bikes
You WILL be able to ride it on the trail!!!!Knuckleslammer said:Well, I doubt I will be able to ride it comfortably on the trail, especially after just building the Hollowpoint MTX. Maybee I'm wrong, but I envision the feel to be a bit of an overgrown BMX type geometry and ergonomical feel. Hopefully I'm wrong. I bought a BMX recently and it was a big mistake as I just can't ride the thing. I'm a total ape at 6' on the thing. Hopefully that will not be the case on a 24" bike.

Much shorter spokes builds a rediculously strong wheel.macmx said:I don't get the seismic hubs.
What's the point of them?
Cool color though...
Yeah I was going to ask you guys about that? Did you use a front fender for that or what? Did you have to fabricate some sort of mounting bracket, or drill into the swingarm. I'm pretty good with that type of stuff, but don't want to drill into the swingarm if I don't have too. However it's steel so I guess that's not that big of a worry. Thanks for all the help guys, I really appreciate it.macmx said:Just to mention - I've had the Mini for about 8 month. This would be the time when I start to encounter flaws on the bike and such. The only flaws I've found, have been parts I've put on that just can't keep up with the frame.
I have nothing whatsoever to complain about. Not even the Avy shock. It's still as good as ever.
Just a tip - You'll want to buy a THE DH fenders to cut down and make holes through, so you can use it on the shockprotecter mounts on the frame. Check the pictures of my mini, and Shortbus (?).
The mini have an welded mount for the fender on the swingarm. YEs you just use a front THE DH fender that you kinda cut up slowly and then drill and bolt on. Voila. Needs patience with cutting though for sure. I still feel mine isn't as THICK as the one I had on the TMX. It kinda flops around when i jumps which makes annoying flopping sounds.Knuckleslammer said:Yeah I was going to ask you guys about that? Did you use a front fender for that or what?

That's my new desktop photo! very cool!macmx said:I want to share something with you.
I was going to give this photo as a personal gift to Chromegoddess, but I just can't help myself in a room full of BMW lovers. So here it is. Finally, a photo of someone (me) riding a Mini Link.
Enjoy
Ah shucks! I thought it was cool that a girl was running a huge fork like that. Guess you can always hop back on the TMX with the Monster T though.chromegoddess said:got a triple8 on that thing now. sweeeeet ride. taller, lighter, little better in keeping up with the rear. plus (and most pimportantly) it looks better than the gold shiver.
Thank you. Couldn't help myself. I'll email you all the sizes you want.chromegoddess said:EDIT: fantastic photo marcus!! from the thumbnail it looked like moab. thanks for sharing with the class. would you email me a higher res version of it?? very very cool shot.
Pfff... You obviously don't know yourself half as well as I know you...chromegoddess said:and those are some mighty kind words you speak, thank you. not sure i'm worthy, but i'll try to live up to it.
Hahhaha! I'm on Hesters desktop!joel hester said:That's my new desktop photo! very cool!
