  • I never changed. and you're still londons dirtiest player :P

  • (Left to right): MA3K, hops, chan, gabes, rik, todd...

  • Joe:

  • We're about to buy Pompino's and wondered if anyone can recommend a good, reasonably priced stem to get?

  • for 22.2 or for 25.4mm bars???????

    22.2 are the BMX ones
    25.4 are the normal MTBs

    also what budget, what is the max you want to pay?
    what lenght? the norm is shortish

  • 25.4
    Pay about £20
    Short length i think, do you think those square ones are best for polo?

    p.s hello rik x

  • I'm after a 26inch rear wheel that isn't shit like my current one, preferably with a disk hub.
    anyone got a suggestion of what i am looking out for? I am happy to buy 2nd hand on eBay or something, but have no knowledge on the matter!

  • this or vey similar is the one I was having in the bike they rob me
    personally, I dont like things like this or like this, but a lot people have them and they work
    this is nice, Jono's old one, BMX style

    if I was having to buy one myself, the Octane One

    but, why dont you ask, normally people will have some in the spare box, for not much money..

    ps. hello

  • Thanks Rik, that really helps.

  • what about ebay? do you use it? will be you happy to wait and try to get one from there?

    if you can stretch to it, get a second hand hope pro2 built wheel on ebay. the hubs are simple to service and go on and on.
    e.g. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rear-DT-Swiss-5-1D-Wheel-Hope-Pro2-Hub-Black-135mm-12mm-/120645183389?pt=UK_sportsleisure_cycling_bikeparts_SR&hash=item1c1703679d#ht_2168wt_1035

  • Yeah we can wait a bit, just saw a Downhil one on e bay that Joni recommended. Will have a look for some more in a sec.

  • Get a cheap BMX stem...

  • this could be cheap and this (need to check if it is 25.4 or not)
    super short (link) cheap (link)
    another cheap one
    I have really like the Azonic ones
    BMX one

  • what colour octane stem should i get for my polobean?

    Want to try shorter reach

  • Get a cheap BMX stem...

    and changes the bars??? she doesnt want

  • Yeah don"t want to change bars, thanks though Joe.

    Thanks Rik, your'e too helpful, watching those items you recommended and a few other i found.

  • another one, two and three

  • check what lenght stem you have in your bike at the moment, just to have an idea
    in Ebay, double check the lenght, is very easy end up with a 60mm or longer, and thery are not good.
    also, new MTB stems can be 31.8 for overside bars, so also double check that

  • I've got an Azonic BMX stem on my bike that fits my 25.4 bars... sticks tongue out at rik

  • OK Joe you win
