Is the Rampage Team frame the same as the one on the rampage 2?
I’m considering getting the 2 to get started and upgrading when I can afford it. It’s only $100 more than the frame itself.
We have these cranks from a previous Bmx race build, is there any reason they'd be a bad idea to put on a dirt jumper. Same 165mm length that's on the P3, total width of the BB is the same - both external euro style. Chainring for this mounting style go down to 30t - current is 31t.
Might have to play with spacers on the hub for chain alignment.
Thing is coming together very nicely!
Just picked up: a Pike 454 U-Turn 95-140mm for $160 & a
A True Precision Stealth S3 hub laced to a DT Swiss FR570, with a Minion DHF and Shimano Ice Tech rotor for $220 both from marketplace, and a Hope Pro4 from eBay for $140
On the hunt for a nice 165x38-42 coil shock for the rear at some point….
Few more weeks I’ll have that rear wheel laced up, test ride it a bit more then tear it down for paint! 🤘🏻
It’s for an older manitou circus pro. It came without this bolt. Anyone know where i can get one?
To get tension in the meantime i used a bolt-on QR skewer and a top cap and it seems to be ok?!!! Is that super unsafe?!
Decided to send the double black freeride line at Snow Summit today. Cased one of the doubles, sending my nether regions straight into the space between my rear tire and seat stays at ~30mph. Tore something in my heel too. Ai papi.
brought the norco rampage out for its first ride and it feels good definitely gonna change some things out like the bars, cranks and bottom bracket
It's been 7 months since i switched from BMX to DJ, ever since i switched i bought rigid forks for my DJ, i kinda use it as a BMX, mostly riding street (sometimes i do go to skateparks and pump tracks, i dont really do much Dirt Jumping cause there are like only 2 places with dirt jumps and one of them is built more towards MTB downhill rather than DJ), i've heard that rigid forks are better for street riding since it is a bit more "technical"? and requieres doing bhops faster? (Or atleast thats what some friends told me)
Getting a suspension fork is way easier, either buying them new or used, but Finding a GOOD Rigid fork its really hard, i luckily found the one im using on a small bike shop but its not really meant for Dirtjumping, i bought it cause its full chromoly, but it's for like 29' inch Cruiser BMX Bikes rathen that DJ or MTB, thats another problem, to not mess up the geo i have to buy 29' inch rigid forks and use high rise handlebars to compensate the height that a suspension usually has.
How would it affect riding Street with a suspension? Because i've been thinking lately on getting a suspension to avoid the trouble of looking for a Rigid fork...
Would it really make me do bhops slower and be "worse" on street?
backflip , only took a month and about 100 stackss
Using a Cannon eos 1300D with tiktok filters lol
this is my bike i got off marketplace, i got it three months ago, what do you think of it and what can i do to make it look beter
Didn't have anyone to record so im sorry for the angle, also misjudged my speed whoops
what do you think?
Found this beast for $350 and it’s pretty close to where I live. It has Joystick components and Sram Level brakes (includes a front one as well). The only issue is the tires are pretty shot, but otherwise this seems like a pretty solid bike.
Recently got back in to riding and bought myself this airdrop fade. I know of a few pump tracks in the north west of the uk but I need more. Any suggestions? And anyone fancy joining for a session?
Like 90 percent done. Just waiting on the fox fork. Sitting at 25 pounds flat
