Right people im laying down a challenge and the game is this,
Turn your bike upside down put it in top gear spin the cranks as hard as you can then start the stop watch when the wheel stops turning stop the clock, then repeat this with the front wheel by grabbing it and spinning it as hard as you can !
Whoever's wheels spin the longest is the best
A couple of rules, NO ROAD BIIKES lol and no disconnecting the caliper
Remember if you cheat your results your only cheating yourself !!
State your front and rear times and what the bike/bikes are !!
I'll kick off with mine......

Front 1m33s
Rear 45s

Im gonna stick to the original idea just the times and what bike, to read what hubs/tyres/brakes/ everybody is running would take too long and take the fun out of it !!
I'm off to A&E to get my finger reattached
Next time choose a safer activity..
The Shaker
I remember doing this with skateboard wheels when we were kids after we had sprayed a full tin of WD40 on the bearings ha ha !!
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.

Unicycle counts as back wheel cause that is where the pedals are connected to innit
The unicycle's front "wheel" is the rider's flailing arms
You whopped my butt !! :shock:
But surely it must depend on how hard you spin the front wheel, and how high your top gear is?
front wheel is 3minutes 48
carrera banshee x
I just got 1m32 on the front! I even realligned my rubbing SLX for this!
I'm going to go back and try harder!!
Oh and it's an NS Society

The wheels aren't in my Prophet at the moment... If I drive to the top of the moors and roll them back down the road... and I follow them in the car... does that count?

I've got one bike with cones, and one with cartridges. I always though if you got a good cartridge bearing, it would be fine? Can't you get full complement cartridges?
Anyway, I just got home from work, so I'm too knackered right now.
I'm going to try tomorrow though.
