Yes, I recommend this product.
Pros: Good value, Good quality, Lightweight, Looks great
I recently bought these forks to replace some old ones. they are really sturdy and they just feel so right. You have massive tyre clearance for a 2.3 if you ever need to go that wide. And for the price, there's not no other forks that I would reccommend. They 're just a good all round pair of bmx forks.

Could this chain be used for a fixed gear bike? Will the 'shortlinks' allow the chain to be easily adjusted in size?

Hi there pal, yup this chain will fit perfectly fine with no problems. If you have anymore queries, feel free to ask.

i have purchased the shadow chain, it is on my bike and when i ride it makes a strange noise, i was wondering if anyone else has had this problem?

Hi there buddy, i've got the same chain on my bike. I think they are the best bmx chains, however, when you first fit it, it will need to 'bed in'. It will need to stretch out ever so slightly for the links to runs smooth, once it does that, you shouldn't no other problems with the chain. If you're still hearing a noise or find its gritty when pedalling, there may be a small chance it could be your bottom bracket. I would suggest bringing it in to any local Evans and we could have a look at it for you. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

How long are these grips?

I want to know how long these are as i like to ride a long grip, but i need to know if i should buy one or two of these,
Hi there buddy, BELIEVE me, you would not need to get two. They are really long, you could cut them directly in half and still enough length on either side. After you cut them straight through the middle, you could cut another inch off the each side.

would i need to cut down the size of the cable or does it come as a stock length?

.......
Hi there mate. Usually when I buy cables, you would a little extra length incase you need to cut it down. This is because of the different lengths of the frames. For example, if you have 21 top tube, you would need a longer cable than someone who has a 20 top tube. Plus, if you like doing bar spins and tail-whips, it might be a good idea to have a little extra length so your brakes don't rub on the rims when you spin the bars.

Does the term "Black, 1 1/8 Inch" mean 10 or 14ml slots?

i dont understand it (-:
Hi there pal. The 1 1/8'' means they are standard head tube size. But with the drop outs, they're going to be the 10mm slots.

how well wood this tyre work on the street ?

Hi there pal, so as a street rider myself, this tyre would be perfectly fine. They're quick rolling and they are thick. Which is want you want in these tyres. They Also grip well in wet conditions so you should have no problems. Only thing I would suggest is you go for the 2.10 size.

I was wondering, is it possible to attatch a wicker basket on the front?

just, I like baskets.
Thanx
Yes you would be able to fit a wicker basket to the handle bars. Small to large size basket wouldn't be a problem.

Hi Can you tell me the width of the handlebars for the 58cm Specialized Roubaix Elite 20 2010 Road Bike

Hi there pal, so, if you were looking into getting a 58cm frame, the width of the handlebars would be 44cm. Effectively, you would get a 100mm stem on there as well to bring your reach out slightly without being too stretched. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

What weight is the bike? How many gears does it have? What size frame will be best for 5 foot 4 inch lady with a 32" leg?

The bike is round about the 27lbs/12kg mark. It has the full set of 24'' Shimano gears. And if you're about 5,4'' with an inside leg of 32, then you're probably better off with the small size which is a 15'' frame.

how much does this bike weigh because on Winstanleys bmx it says its 23.9 but on evans it says its 24.9 so im a bit unsure

The confusion comes from the bike being weighed with, or without pegs. If you're including pegs, then the bike weighs 24.9lbs.
