Of course it's distributed around the wheel once it's completely laced but all spokes run in tension. The answer your looking for is hanging. Spokes wouldn't support jack shit in compression, they are strong in tension. The spoke nipples aren't even supported from the backside, so there's no way for them to run in compression.

Wonder if he still blames his dad for robbing him of a childhood.

Which way are you turning the crank & where on the chain are you seeing slack - between cams, intake to crank or crank to exhaust?

This... You likely have an air intake leak. Replacing the reed block & intake boot are your best place to start.

You sure sound like it, immediately trying to discredit him. Lol

Using Aderall, a recently added drug that would have been fine had the proper paperwork been filled out, yes. Let me guess a JS7 hater with his head so far up his ass, he can't respect and incredible accomplishment.

Stupid moves by both I'm. Webb standing on tomacs bike while he re-mounted was reminded me of Alessi going for the kill switch with Tedesco.

JS7, Toronto 2014... The best comeback ride in history imo.

Is it the rider or bike? I think Anderson could be winning on any of the factory bikes.

Yep... Stewart & Carmichael started well after having hair on their chest. My take on it is a bit different.. My son is a top level bmx kid - nag 1, factory team, etc. I have only allowed him to progress as I thought he understood the consequences of his actions. Basically, I didn't want my 5 year old to...

If you can do simple math, the desmo valves are very easy to adjust. Havent checked the valves in my old 900 monster for about 15k miles though.

Have you ever pulled the plugs on a ducati & put a wrench on the crank?

He jumped a little deeper into the bottom / transition of the jump than previous laps, the front end landing almost at the face. The front end came up quickly, his body weight pushed through instead of staying balanced. I felt like as the laps were clicking off, he was probably getting a little more anxious & just slightly over...

If you're fixing it up just to sell it, I would just sell it as is. Seals, top end & sounds like you possibly have a lean condition or some sort of air leak on the intake side. Parts & a bunch of labor for a bike that you will probably get around 400 bucks for but you could probably...

Yep, those aluminum triple clamps

That was weird, like he couldn't decide to take the half pedal leading to the face & hesitated. Looked like he will be fine though.

Justin Perkins. Here's a link to his worlds races in Colombia. The "Boys 7 Final" was his main event: http://www.bmx-videos.com/raceflv.php?show_cat=460

My son is way into it. Came away from Colombia ranked world #1 for his age this year. Not looking foward to him hitting jumps like this at all - lucky we have some time. These guys have to be so precise in their riding. The big jumps are really cool but IMO bad for the racing itself. Guys in...
