The bearings might very well fit, not sure about spacing though.

I was thinking more of the clutch and if the contact angle is the same.

Seeing how the hub seems to have another internal build than a yuhub I would rate the chance of that working as minimal.

How hard do you actually ride that warrents a 48?

Im not interested in the adjustment ability, but the bearings though! I didnt know they actually did something there, and that it doesnt have lock rings!

I love seeing people doing new stuff. Mad props to them to go that balls out, properly insane stuff! He almost clipped his head on the ramp in the first flip since he was flipping that hard.

I cannot imagine doing anything similar, just jumping that jump would be an insane feat for me, let alone quad flip it... Surprised they would risk so much for one trick.

You sure you dont have any type of warrenty on these? Seems like lifetime is standard...

I would say Odyssey thunderbolt. Probably the lightest and strongest cranks out there.

I met a few parents at the skatepark and they all complain about the weight of the bikes. I think they have gotten WTP and United bikes, but might be wrong, its BMX companies though. The bikes are basically miniature versions of good bikes but weight so much that the kids cant get it off the ground, something to consider.

Wow. Im amazed how far down the list an atheist comes. It amazed me how religious the us can be.

That being said I would probably vote against religeous politicians in favor for atheist if there ever were any outspoken religeous people here

The Bike Shop / Re: Stripping peely chrome rims

« on: July 02, 2015, 05:22:52 AM »

I only seen it on old cheap rims and Odyssey rims. My Dragonfly ones held up for years without chipping while my ody started after 6 months...

Anyway, Ive tried compressed water, which only removed chips, so no good idea. Tried a metal brush on a drill and it worked for a little bit, but not really the result you are after.

Just get some new rims with better chrome.
