Cheers!
And I love it!
There are a few times when having a brake would make some tricks alot easier, but I can cope without them.
Brakeless has also made me alot better at guaging my speed for stuff, so it can give you a better overall bike handling ability!

Well I wanted to keep my Profile Mini front hub (although I was well on the way to figuring out how to convert it to 20mm), but mainly because I got them brand new from eBay for 200 posted...

For £200 you would have to be some kind of crazy fool not to pick up a pair of dual air rebas. And you would have to land pretty damned hard to snap them - there not made of cheese.

If I was gonna paint it, it would more than likely just go gloss black for simplicitys sake!
Colour schemes get too boring too fast for me

May be an assumption, so feel free to correct me. But you're probably younger/shorter/lighter than me, so I think you'll be fine!

Just plain Halo ones that I got from Billys.co.uk for 25p a spoke (and nipple).
I preffer it by miles with sus (feels good at either 60, 80 or 100mm to me) as it's alot eiser to get airborn do to the higher front end and more pop from the sus.
Tried my rigids on a few weeks ago and it was lame by comparison!

Cheers! Was really nice around this stage
Why don't you build something up slowely?
Alot of deals to be had on the net if you're not in a rush!

got other more important bikes to be sorting out or buying, i use my bikes to get litraly everywhere, i like them to do it very well, but when i can get a better job i can afford such a sexy thing though

Fair enough!
I really fancey a beater/fixie bike for when I wanna ride to town, so I don't have to leave my good bike chained up outside a shop. Whenever I look into it I always get distracted by something else that I wanna upgrade on my bike, though

With that ratio I can believe that you did!
Must have had some man chain snappages though?
I'll see how much one would come in handy after I've passed my driving test and go from there! Still fancey giving the whole fixie thing a go regardless

Surprising, as ratios that hard really do test the tensile strength of a chain!
I always try to own a roadie, but I always give up xD
I'll see how it goes! Would be as interesting change for sure!

thats nothing man, i use the same chain on my fixed gear wich is a 46:14 ratio, and i skid at 35mph on that sometimes, that puts way more stress on the chain, most fixed gears have bmx chains or simler

Considering the whole thing isn't for sale, you were bound to get a dumb answer.
I would have to build a whole new bike out of the "reasonable price" I would get for it, which would be a shit spec in comparison.
The price I asked was what it's worth to me, even if it is stupidly over the top.

Ignore me, I'm overly harsh at the best of times.
And yeah, although I was probably gonna start dropping the price in a few weeks.

did you need new cones to fit it on your fork or is the spacing the same? just asking because i want to run a bmx hub on my fork
- 1 0
Spacing is the same.
BMX front hubs are 100mm wide (same as MTB, 15/10mm/QR front hubs).
BMX rear hubs are 110 wide (same as MTB 20mm front hubs)

Hows brakeless working for you?? I tryed it and fackin' hated it on my void. It takes like 20m to stop and at the end of a run I WILL hit a tree.
