who's still here then?

110 have been the standard for the last couple of years. Hep Greg had a signature 125mm eagle 7 or 8 years ago which is the first wheel that I can really remember of that size. Bigger wheels are faster so they are always a good thing, I can see 120mm becoming standard in the future. Just need...

And how did the bots manage to get back again? Didn't we have some big sort of migration before to stop them?

This place is fuuuuuuucked up right now. Time to call it. RIP SR.

Bots have been fucking with this place for too damn long.

Did you put the spacers back in on either side of the wheel?

oh shit you just bought back a lot of memories man. I've been laughing for like 10 minutes reminiscing about that Free Kota shit, when everyone thought he was being held hostage by his dad and didn't even like riding ahaha. Would be cool if a few other older guys came into this thread and...

Came here for a nostalgia trip, eh? Place has been dead for years. Just remember the good times and keep on walking like the rest of us. I was probably a bit later than you but a few things - Hella Dank compression Bolted Foldies Hot glued pro model wheels Trolley bars (which literally...

surely the ultra pro was before the phoenix v1? Also I haven't seen many around as you said a fuckton of them were snapped pretty quick.

Off topic but check out what I found in my wardrobe. Signed by Rwilly, Bille Rainbow, Ladam, Donovan, Twan.. forgot I even had it.

Also busted my collarbone coming off at 50km/h. There was a post about it in one of the other hillbombing threads. is that the one on video? I was watching that the other day edit: found it

I've topped out at 60km/h before. Had brand new 110mm eagles. At one stage I was planning on making a super quick hillbomber with some hep greg 125mm wheels but they got super hard to find and I only ended up getting my hands on one.

Sit it in a salt water bath. To speed things up add an electrical current to the salt bath with something like a car battery. (don't actually do this)

ICS will always work it's way loose and you have to take your front wheel off every time you want to tighten the damn thing. Do your bars have slits? I'd look into scs and just cut the slit from the bottom of your bars. You gain like and inch or so back anyway with the way they sit in the scs...

Damn rolled up jeans and long songs may just be the new fashion. You're onto something here. Sick vid tho man.

til sr has a front page

Broke my collar bone after trying to hit 60 bombing a hill. Came off at 50. There's a post about it in a hillbombing thread somewhere. Also broke my wrist after trying to clear a massive spine out of an 8 footer. I was hauling ass and my front wheel clipped the coping and sent me flying up. I...

Oh there's so much more to it than just social media. This place used to be fucking incredible. I learned so much on here. Like the first time I ever bought new bars and I couldn't figure out how to get the fucking grips on. Only took two minutes for someone to tell me that hairspray does it...

Yeah if it's the wheel causing the problem don't throw it out. I used to just use masking tape, you can use anything you want. Just make sure the bearing sits in the slot nice and tight.

That would be the brake vibrating. If it's like a flex fender or whatever they are called these days there isn't a great deal you can do about it. Naturally the metal softens up over time and whenever you drop the scooter it just vibrates and makes a noise. I'd pull the brake off and stick some...
