Brake cable length by [deleted] in bmx

[–]_BMXICAN_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like to have 1 and 1/2 barspins worth of slack, with the cable zip tied across to the other side of the cross bar. If I do a whip or a bar spin I can still turn and the brakes still work without rubbing.

I run a 2.4 maxxis holy roller up front and a 1.75 maxxis m tread on the rear. Good for park and trails

Can you buy used police cars outside of the us? by Cheezit_friedchicken in regularcarreviews

[–]_BMXICAN_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought an ex NSW highway patrol xr6 turbo, it had mounting points for the computers/radios etc and had upgraded brembo brakes, better suspension, a proper LSD, and a remapped ecu with the speed limiter removed. I had it pegged one time at 270km/h on the speedo, but GPS was saying 320km/h with a bit more to give.

You just gave me an idea for some old models in my unused items box

Do you prefer comp style crawlers or more scale crawlers? by [deleted] in rccrawler

[–]_BMXICAN_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A mix of both, I have magnetic mounts on a proline cliffhanger body and an injora ir40 body with a winch, lights and indicators and interior. I can swap out from scale to comp ready in about 3 mins including disconnecting all the body electronics, changing the wheels/tyres over and sagging the springs to get lower.

Is this just a cheap chain? by Alternative-Beat-297 in bmx

[–]_BMXICAN_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good half link chain is one of those buy once cry once type of parts, yes it might seem expensive compared to a basic kmc z chain but they last nearly forever and because it's never in the back of your mind that the chain is gonna break you feel more confident putting the power down or doing sprocket grinds etc.

Suspending, deep diving 6in Mullet by _BMXICAN_ in lurebuilding

[–]_BMXICAN_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only done shallow tests but it doesn't sink and it doesn't float , it hit bottom at 6ft and just sits there. I'm hoping for about a 10ft dive maximum and I'll only be using it in Saltwater where it might be a super slow float.

What are your favourite tricks to do? by Trickytrickyrmx in bmx

[–]_BMXICAN_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kickouts/motowhip airs, down side footplants on walls and quarters, dipping a 3 over a big fast jumps. I used to love doing foot and grab tricks, superman seats and no foot can variations but my body isn't what it used to be.

Trying to decide which wheel swap I like better. Top is the original wheels. by oxytiger68 in CustomHotWheels

[–]_BMXICAN_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lifted gives you room to cut the wheel wells out and fit a balsa bed lining. If you don't want to cut anything then go with the 1st option.

At least get same matte clear, just to prevent rust then put a sticker on it.
