DT's 2011 UGC XR

Wait until you see the tubes guys. They were the deal sealer for me, that and they will be free during the proto stage

XR axles already traded away to bigflex for a set of built berg axles

He's doing tubes too !
Should I hang fire on the Clovers??????

if hang fire means hold off a bit... YES These are still several months out. His machinist is SLOW and we still need to proto them to make sure that can hold up. hoping in the next couple weeks he will share to the public the photo that made me pick my jaw up off the rocks at ECC and agree to drive berg.

OK, I havent sent any money to Bryan yet, If these are as good as you say, I'm prepared to wait ..a bit..might just get some Clovers anyway, my boy could always run them when the RCBros come through

bummed to see you ditch the xr axles...but i cant blame you...did the exact same maneuver while hunting factory sponsorships and such racing bmx growing up.....im sure its gonna be worth it...but im sticking with my xr axles lol...waiting to see what vp has in store housing wise ....did your knuckle weights go too?

Yes the knuckle weights (bodies only) went. Erik has berg bodies on the way to me I kept the CO rings, it is all compatible

I really wish I could have kept the XR axles, I just can not afford two rigs with a newborn The axles I have coming have every 300m goody made for berg in them, they were bigflex's so I know they are not going to be unmaintained. He is quite meticulous.

I was going to order a set of Clovers, but i know im waiting now. RcBros (William) will put out some great equipment.

I cant wait to see these bad boy RCBros tubes either

Got a bit of a chubby on already....

I'm hoping pics within a couple weeks, and proto in a couple months. I got a gift certificate for $50 off front and rear clover tubes at ECC, I may pick a set up as well just to have

Sounds like these are quite a way off yet..

I want some bad, but I cant wait, so I'm still going to get some Clovers for now and score some RCBros kit when it's done....unless Will can hook me up sooner .........

Just shipped my XR axles to bigflex

Richard, I've almost pissed my pants, I need a sneak preview or something............

Talk about a dilemma....

Clovers with Axial C's and VP knuckles ??
Clovers with New VP AX10 knuckles and C's.??....but then I think I'd have to swap my 300's for Berg/Axail version
or.......
What will I need for the RCBros tubes?????
Just knuckles, cause they have adjustable C's built in?...am I close yet ??
Will my berg/berg 300's work?..........fuck, cant you tell I'm writing this with my teeth scraping together you can post it on here, I wont tell anyone

As far as I know the Berg\berg 300's will work. It is designed around the rcbro's zero ack knuckle that uses berg\berg 300s. Not too much info on front axle yet, rear axle is a few weeks out now Will is test cutting and fitting his set this week, if all is good, he will cut the team proto's next week. I will have pics as soon as I have it in hand, for now I have a TON of figuring to do to make these berg axles work on what was an amazingly dialed XR10.....

Nope, sorry Martin he already has 5 of us. You are probably the 60-70th person I have had to say no too as well, plus a few including Brandon asking me to not to give up in the XR. I explained I love the XR platform, this is purely so I can run a sponsors product.... Brandon was the most understanding of that

Ok I understand
Just be sure to put a good word in for me when they become available to buy, I dont want to miss out on one of the first batches

I will see to it that a few of the people that have been asking me to get them have a set reserved in the first batch. I'd like to see you, Bill if he wants to drop the coin, and Scattman (anyone that hauls a commercial smoker from Florida to Alabama to feed 100+ people AMAZING bbq on his nickle deserves first round!) get from round one. A bunch more have asked, but they have never done anything for me or UGC, so they can pound sand.

much like UGC (team stuff aside) I have no decision making at RcBro's but I will put in a good word!

Thanks fella, I wish I could do more......bit tricky being so far away though !!

Need any Joinery work carrying out, or Solid Surface worktops fitting? could do you a cracking deal

(I own and run our 100 yr old family joinery business ......)

I need a new shipping table/center!

Maybe after I move, shipping form the UK would kill though
