We're in the process of building a 22" Holmes for a customer with all american made parts. I will report back with photos once it's compleate. Obviously we can't get %100 American made though (grips, tires).

Got a new stem, rawed it. Mum's lost one of my 6mm and my other is in my bag at my friends. Wish people would leave my stuff alone.

Move out. Problem solved.

I've seen a 8-flat-8 done one on them.  It did have a quick layer of wax though.

Word. Thanks dudes. I'll probably give it ago. Its mad steep that's why I asked first. Its already claimed a few people on skateboards and bikes.

Rode for the first time in 2 months last weekend and this week, damn it feels good.

Learnt oppo 180 feeble smiths to fakie, stoked.
I can still do toothy hangers over ledges at will, stoked.
Haven't yet blown up this re-mix, stoked.

For hangers start low on the ledge and let the rear end come up if that makes sense. Gives you a longer grind, looks better, helps you find the balance point more.

since the BG mainpage is now The Union's mainpage i can't find the chart that lists rear end length for different gear ratios. i'm trying to figure out what a 10/29 would slam at though, so any help could be appreciated. i don't have a 29t sprocket yet, otherwise i'd measure that shit myself. i'm assuming i can just add a half link to my chain and have my axle stay in the same spot (slammed), but i wanted to be sure.

Wouldn't you also need to know the rear end length to calculate it? Assuming its a 13.75" rear end you should be right around 13.85" with out half link, and you should be slammed with a half link. These are just rough estimates but you get the idea.
