The blue pads are dog 5hit, other than that I like them now

yeah not sure on those either Ash

Camo all the way Rob

Yep camo pads best. Yep the mushrooms always felt weird and interfered with feedback thru the bike. They never last long anyways, too soft.
Seats nice but I truly love that seatclamp. Imported mine from US for my 30th ripper build with Quadangle landing gear with canti posts. Every time I go to dig it out to finish it the bl**dy missus give me inane jobs. Sigh. Wimmen eh?

The problem with the modern camo pad set is that they're meant for cruisers, so the bar pad is far too narrow $:-\$

Mebbe try getting a Quadangle set too and add the bar pad from that. See them in eBay occasionally. Hope that helps?

yeah, i was thinking of getting another set of the camo pads and using the frame pad? might need to cut it down a little and re-sow it on the edges. will measure it up later tonight.

Cool. I have a 2009 Gold/ brown PK ripper and the geometry on it is sweet. No way could I fit an old Skool one today! My original busted '84 Ripper in mums loft. Can't bring myself to sell it for any price! What do you think of the new 2015 Quadangle freestyler?

Cheers guys, not sure on the 2015 quad as I don't think it works as a 24

How do you use that saddle rob ? Change them nasty pedals and it's almost there

bmxband1t77 · « **Reply #49 on:** September 14, 2014, 09:26 AM »

The more you ride a kashimax your butt gets used to it heh heh.

I'm a big fan of shimano DX design pedals despite the horrendous shin injuries! These pedals do not lose grip when wet if you're wearing vans etc, self right onto your foot, hard wearing and rarely break and they look Rad too.
Most of the new Skool pedals supplied on pre built bikes are copy designs too.
What's not to like of them?
