    hydraulic gyro?

    hmmm, cable operated mechgyro? would that defeat the purpose? I imagine continous would be rather fragile and unreliable. 2 circuits seems kind, of excessive a short thick cable(or 2) would be pretty stretchless. Now we're cookin, I call a seat on the design board.

    2001 p.3

    maybe it was $1400 CAD. The P.3 is back out for $1300MSRP but thats gotta be a joke right? i thought people where paying like $600 for new P.2s

    Opinions please

    I always thought GT=CRAP. You might consider the fit series 1 complete for $289, I've heard its nice. Empirebmx and albes both have it.

    Do shoes matter for BMX?

    The 10.5 isn't a problem, its the 2E. Its hard to find anything in widths. I tried a few pairs of vans half-cabs and figured i'd need about a size 14 to get the width right.

    Do shoes matter for BMX?

    I've always been a crosstrainer/b-ball shoe guy, but the only way i could skate was in skate shoes. well cut forward 9 years, now BMXers(and everyone else too(f*ckin posers(j/k(well))) wear DCs and etnies and all that crap. Are skate shoes helpful on a bike or is it just fashion? Only thing I...

    Cruiser or 20"?

    Tires for skatepark?

    Are you looking for tires specific to park or something that will be a jack of all trades? I think the side knobs on your stock tires would be bad in a park because of the contact angles the tire makes with the ramps. Park specific i'd go dual hookworms(that would be the trendy choice at...

    Who here likes the Flat Tax plan?

    Oh, and flat tax will never happen because it would put 90% of the already useless IRS out of work.
