I need some Bocks
« on: October 10, 2010, 11:19:53 AM »
OK so it's been a while since I last bocked but have been thinking about getting a pair again. So my xmas pressie to myself will be a pair of bocks. The question is what type should I get...as in Brand? Your thoughts & opinions please

The new Pro-Jumps coming out very soon and defo worth the wait, undergone about a years worth of testing and tweaks, Prototypes tested by Jason, Pro-Jump 101, Welsh Bockers, Sky High for a long period and briefly by Spud and Sprog (where is sprog these days?)

The dates are still set to end of this month / beginning of next, there's never a concrete fixed date as it all depends on how long it takes to clear at customs once they arrive in the UK. I'll have some images & pricing in the next few days for you.

Please check out http://www.ghostbikes.com/categorylist/Off-Road-Gear-Motocross-Armour/ for everything we have in stock, I don't think we are getting any more of the GMX armour in.

sprog has a girlfriend and a job. The end is nigh.

ET, I would suggest speaking to Jason because you are closer weight ranges than me or maybe he'll reply anyway. The new models have been to hell and back in testing and lets just say you get a lot of bang for your buck.
I dont believe 7's are available anymore in the UK and even if they are, they are looking old now.
You could splash out and get some powerskips but a few people have had some snappages happening.

My honest opinion would be to get the new PJ's when they arrive, but possibly see if you can meet up with Jason or someone who has 100+ kg springs on them so you can judge what weight spring to get.

Be awesome to jump with you again :P

I will wait and see about the new PJ's, I will probably go for the highest weight range available. It would be totally awesome to come visit the Bay  :Cbiggrin:

ET you would pick the one day I am at the other end of the country mate  :Claugh:

Sadly I am off to the yearly engineering show on friday (the 15th in case you mean the friday after)

But I can normaly get off work a bit early (say 3ish ) most days if I have some notice and we don't have an emergency

Only week day I can't stay late is thursdays (shopping can't trust the wife alone  :Claugh:)

So maybe we could make a meet and get a few of the oldies along (what say Q)
