Archive for December, 2009Me and a friend are interested in learning freestyle BMX, but we don’t know what’s good and what isn’t .
Were not looking to spend much over $300 on a bike so any suggestions on what would be good for that price would be appreciated.
also, we are both 19 years old and around 5′ 10" tall so take that into account. cuz ive heard stories of smaller bikes breaking under someone’s weight.
buy used…it’s like buying a car, if you buy new you immediately lose value. Check danscomp.com and then check craigslist, or vice versa, for similar bikes- it’ll give you an idea of what you’re saving from new. You should sign up at bmxmuseum.com and post a thread stating that you want a freestyle bike- those guys are real cool and will get you into something that’ll be the most bang for your buck. Good luck.

i was wondering which made a bigger difference to the strength of a BMX wheel, the rims or the spokes?
like what material they are, thickness, amount of spokes, etc.
help would be appreciated.
What makes the biggest difference is the build. If a wheel isn’t trued, tensioned, and stress-relieved properly it won’t matter how good the quality of the rim and spokes are. That said, the design and quality of the rim is probably the more important between the two options you’re asking about. You can’t really look at just those two, however, because the width and design of the hub is also very important, as are little things like the nipples. Overall, though, my answer is "rim" because its design and construction (including spoke count) is a biggie.
Hope this helps some.

Surprises pop up in new survey of U.S. Mormons
By Peggy Fletcher Stack
The Salt Lake Tribune
Updated: 07/30/2009 02:20:19 PM MDT
On July 24, the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life released an extensive statistical portrait of Mormons in the United States.
It drew on answers by self-identified members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to Pew’s U.S. Religious Landscape Survey in 2007.
Though it will come as no surprise to Utahns that most Mormons are church-attending, Bible-believing Republicans, some of the other results may be less predictable. For instance, Latter-day Saints are more likely to attend church and less likely to home-school or attend religious schools than the general population.
Here are some of the findings:
Comparative size » Mormons make up 1.7 percent of the American adult population, a proportion that is comparable in size to the U.S. Jewish population but more than Jehovah’s Witnesses (0.7 percent), Buddhists (0.7 percent), Muslims (0.6 percent) and Hindus (0.4 percent).
Age, gender and family » Two-thirds (66 percent) of Latter-day Saints are under age 50, compared with 59 percent of the public as a whole. Most Mormons are women (56 percent).
Nearly three-quarters of Mormons (71 percent) are married, compared with just more than half (54 percent) among the general population. Only Hindus (78 percent) are more likely than Mormons to be married. Mormons (83 percent) and Hindus (90 percent) also are the most likely of all the major religious traditions to be married to someone
of the same faith.
Latter-day Saints are widely known for having large families and, indeed, about half the nation’s Mormons (49 percent) have children under age 18 living at home, with one in five (21 percent) saying they have three or more children at home. Only Muslims are similarly likely to have large families: 47 percent of Muslims have at least one child living at home and 15 percent have three or more.
Race » Nearly nine in 10 U.S. Mormons (86 percent) are Anglo, compared with 71 percent of the general population. Just 3 percent of Mormons are African-American and 7 percent are Latino. Other predominantly Anglo religious groups in the United States include Jews (95 percent), members of mainline Protestant churches (91 percent) and Orthodox Christians (87 percent).
Education » Six in 10 Mormons (61 percent) have at least some college education, compared with half the overall population. However, the proportion of Mormons who graduate from college (18 percent) or receive postgraduate education (10 percent) mirrors the population as a whole (16 percent and 11 percent, respectively).
Converts » Nearly half the LDS converts (48 percent) are above age 50, compared with about three in 10 lifelong members (29 percent). Converts also tend to be less educated than nonconverts (16 percent did not graduate from high school, compared with just 6 percent of lifelong members), and they earn decidedly lower incomes (40 percent pocket less than $30,000 a year, compared with 21 percent among nonconverts).
Converts are more likely than lifelong Latter-day Saints to come from minority racial and ethnic groups. They are less likely than lifelong members to be married (64 percent vs. 74 percent).
A quarter of current Mormons (26 percent) are converts to the faith. This is a much higher proportion than among Catholics (11 percent) and Jews (15 percent) but significantly lower than among Buddhists (73 percent), Jehovah’s Witnesses (67 percent) and Protestants (45 percent, when those who have switched from one Protestant family to another are included, such as Baptist to Methodist; if changes within Protestantism are omitted, the figure is 16 percent). Of those who have converted to Mormonism, roughly half (13 percent of Mormons overall) were raised Protestant, one in four (7 percent of Mormons overall) were raised Catholic and one in five (5 percent of Mormons overall) were raised without a religious affiliation.
Retention » Mormons boast a relatively high retention rate of childhood members compared with other major religious traditions. Seven in 10 of those raised LDS (70 percent) still identify as Mormon, a figure roughly comparable to that seen among those raised Catholic (68 percent are still Catholic) but somewhat lower than among those raised Protestant (80 percent are still Protestant and 52 percent remain in the same Protestant family). Jehovah’s Witnesses have a lower retention rate (37 percent are still Jehovah’s Witnesses).
Of those who leave Mormonism after being raised in the faith, half (15 percent of those raised LDS overall) convert to a new religion, while the other half (14 percent overall) become unaffiliated.
The Bible » More than nine in 10 Mormons (91 percent) say the Bible is the God’s word, while a majority of Mo
"They" are STILL a Cult and they teach a false gospel and a false christ!! Period!
