30kgs more to much?
« on: April 20, 2009, 08:21:31 PM »
okay sorry for another post about pro jumps but they have just sold out of the ones i wanted.
Do you think 30kgs more than my wait is to much?

I said about this on another thread of yours, yes, it's too much to learn really. Progress would be very slow.

Yeah, usable, just far far from ideal. There are actually a couple of things you could do. Its not great, but you can pay £15 to get some springs changed over from spares to a set of bocks, Wait, look at alternative brands (PJ have best support tho), or, I duno. I think you would need to downgrade at some point just to get yourself going so maybe buy some springs and change them yourself then when you get better change them to the higher ones. But +30kg is still quite a lot. And..if you dont get on with it you have spent a fair amount more.

And yup, sarah is proof. hope you get some new ones soon, what springs were you after?

As above really, would not advise you to buy them, they would be rock hard for you. There are people selling used ones in the classified check them out.

Also Archy-G please reduce your sig!!!!

Your sig is a bit better archy but it's still quite big. It might be worth asking bexx to make a smaller version of it or resize it on photobucket for you. Something 200px high is ideal. Thats the biggest problem with it.
