    You ride for PROTO Brian. If you want something to test, ask me. Nameen.

    The new Standard Compression system will work for any type of threadless fork and will work with any type of handlebar. So yea.

    [poll] Proto metal cores VS. Eagle metal cores

    Because there was a dehubbing problem with some of the PROTO's in the first batch so naturally they will lose points for that until the problem is solved and the wheels are replaced which is happening right now.

    If that snowscoot pic is real then it wins hands down because that is fucking amazing and I am jealous. James for clip. Twan's clips are cool. I like to see him trying different stuff but you can definitely tell that's not his usual style of riding.

    [poll] Proto metal cores VS. Eagle metal cores

    Half the people stating OPINIONS have not even ridden both types of wheels. I'm not going to say which is better because it is not my place to do so but once you have ridden BOTH the difference will be very clear to you. Until you have ridden both and don't have incentive to be biased...

    The urethane would not make the core wobble. Your bearings are not in all the way and/or they are not in straight. You have to PRESS them in evenly in a vice, arbor, hydraulic press or with a bolt and some washers (as a last resort). You need to install them ONE at a time also. If you try...

    I'll let you be the judge next month. Also, I checked out one of these forks today. Not the prettiest fork but it definitely looks strong. I didn't ride it so I can't say anything about that. There are some things that I would do to improve on it but it's not my product. So yea. If you...

    Got the starnuts in this morning so they all went out. Mmm... yea, that'd be a safe estimate.

    This voting sucks. I'm remaking the nominations and voting polls. All the categories were supposed to have 5 and now the nomination threads are gone plus voting already started plus most of the voting was not set for voting once. Categories that already had 5 I will just hold. Categories...

    Technically it could work if you set the starnut just right but it's going to be tough to get it to the exact depth without all the threads to play with. Should go out tomorrow with all the slaYers. There is a lot of stuff that no one has seen. Just be patient and you shall see what is in...

    Should be taken care of. Let me know if I missed any.

    Yea... well... you'll see why I decided not to do it that way pretty soon here.

    Thanks. That's what I do. If you don't like them I'm sure you won't have a problem finding someone to buy them if you want to go smaller. I am basically just waiting for reviews on the different size gussets to see if I'm going to keep making them with the 3 different sizes and at what...

    No, you have the medium size supports. I made 3 different sizes according to width. Small = 15"-17" Medium = 18"-20" Large = 21"-24" The two big rows on the far left and far right are smalls. The pile in the middle next to the chair are all mediums and the small row at the top are...

    No one rides them because no one makes them. No brainer. "If you build it, they will come."

    Trust me... he's not the only one. Show him the pictures just so he knows I'm not scamming anyone... just really really swamped in orders as you can see.

    PROTO is not here to please the sport. PROTO is here to progress the sport. PROTO is a scooter company not a wheel company. You think I don't know that 125mm don't fit on most peoples scooters? You think I don't know that if I release a 125mm wheel that I need to release 125mm decks, 125mm...
