hit the roids bro

stretching helps too, and look into getting some sports support things for times when youve hurt yourself recently and are starting to ease back into riding. doesnt work for everyone but deffos works good for my knees, wrists and ankles when i fuck them up

they learnt their lesson when bg pushed for 20" sunday frames and they had to sell them all off for peanuts on their website

Let's not forget the 48h Ratchets and Ribcages!

i paid almost full price for mine 120 quid for the hub but its still on my bike now so got my moneys worth. that was a helllllll of a deal though, full 48 gsport wheel for 100 bucks

unless 10t suddenly replaced 9t as an industry standard i would say not.

good luck persuading them theres enough demand for a small run as well, they learnt their lesson when bg pushed for 20" sunday frames and they had to sell them all off for peanuts on their website

could crack some araldite or plumbers tape in there with them i guess. not really a fix though. chances are if the bb is already started deforming, it will get worse over time. depends how bad it is atm and whether its an issue for you or not. deffos something to be aware of though, if it starts to develop significant play, i would think about getting a new frame

going off his insta he eats lots of health food tacos, and does long distance running. shame he doesnt still ride a bit after bmx being such a big part of his life

the success of sundays aaron ross completes was kinda their downfall at the same time. people who werent really up on current riding liked to collect the completes, so i think sunday got geared more towards that as they were no doubt making more money than the aftermarket frames, but at the same time most other riders werent big on aaron ross neon bikes with bright coloured tyres. also, odyssey wouldnt want to be doubling up on parts across the two brands. id still consider buying one of the new sunday frames, cos my og was great (still have it) but id probs rather get an STA

yeah wow random collab. kinda cool though. while it does look pretty similar to most big slick tyres these days, it looks a lot better than those mingin mtt tyres

yeah, once a new chain stretches it can make your back end at least half a cm longer, even more. so many threads on here about slamming the back end about 8 years ago lolz
