Building your first Fixed freestyle bike? Read this thread for lots of useful info

PM Bike Destroyer.

Just phoned spa cycles and 48h non machined rims are out of stock and the importer has none either so would have to wait a month or two until they get them in stock.

does anyone know where you can get the same rim apart from spa cycles

Don't get sputniks! I've already posted what happened to mine.. The are weak as shitt!!

but 48h 4 cross will be strong :) loads of people have had no problems too.

I'm gonna go 26" on my new trick build, loads of different choices! Probably end up getting a small scissor in a few months or so unless i magic some money for an ESB or launchpad.

Well not as strong as they should be... 36h 4 cross should be strong too, but mine buckled after 1 day of riding... You should go for the chukkers, or you will regret it trust meeee

scissors won't be coming back in for about another 2-3 months so that's just as well...i've been wanting mine a good while now

must have been a poor wheelbuild, look at the equipment recommendation thread loads of people swear by sputniks

that is fucking ridiculous

distro doesnt get their scissor shipment til 16/6/2010.. my friend checked the website! nightmare

You think BLB do poor wheelbuilds? Fair enough, just thought I would give you the heads up... You can have mine if you want haha, I'm getting nice solid chukkers.

Will this bottom bracket

in euro work with a charge scissor and demolition cranks?

if they are both 19mm axle, then yes.

dya reckon the thrasher will trump the scissor for 2nd place?

2nd place in what?
I think the Thrasher is going to change the game really. It's the only frame so far with a long enough top tube IMO

2nd best trick specific frame (in crazyjames' opinon)
have they released any price info yet?

rear hub to run pegs on anyone?

trick track is probably a better place to ask that

i would just say a bmx hub.
i have abosuletly no idea though.

ild say just try n run shortest pegs to minimise levrege on the axel

i would say get a bmx.

i read in the first post on this thread that the launchpad looks like its going to be great for nose pivots/manuals etc, how does the esb compare in this department??

anyone got any experience with infamous forks?
or starfuckers W fork?
both look interesting.....

Great Thread, very useful. I'm new to the site, so might have missed it, but does anyone know of any UK shops that stock Milwaukee Bruiser frames?

If not has anyone had experience of shipping over from the US, happy to wait but worried about tax/customs charges etc.

No UK stockists.

You'll have to pay VAT (17.5%) plus import duty (I think that runs at about 20% on bike parts)
