Re: stoppie bike.......

I'm just going by my "personal friends".. Not what I've read on Stuntlife or heard from a guy that knew a guy. And I have 1 friend that broke 03-04's. And 3 friends that snapped 05-06's and one friend that caught his days before breaking.

I'm not saying the 05-06 are better or worse, but just going by MY friends.

In conclusion, I PERSONALLY wouldn't feel comfortable on any of the years

Re: stoppie bike.......

why is it a secret ? if you know 4 people that have broke them then i would think you would say who they are and how they broke to try and convince more of your friends to not do stoppies on them , i mean this is the first time i ever heard you say you knew four people that broke them ......if i knew there was an unsafe part on your bike i would go out of my way to let you know about it

You've posted in some of the threads ********.

Vertical Joe was one of them

Nick Apex had a thread a few weeks ago about his being so loose he could see them moving too

Re: stoppie bike.......

Actually, now that I think about it.. I'm almost positive Tony had to tighten his at one point because they started to leak. I could be wrong on that one though or thinking of someone else
