I saw a guy in canberratrials12 vid running that set up. How is it working for him? Does it take away from stopping power?

im not sure exactly how it works but i gather it is just a bolt with a hole in it that the inner is runn through. It realy makes little difference, just keep your cables long and you will be fine.

if running vee up front and magura on the back it would just make the back brake line more vulnerable due to the bars being able to spin that much further.

you are going to have to get the same length rear cable either way. Putting your front cable through your headtube wont change this. I hear they dont understand this over there in canada. Who is this?

i dont care if its for masturbation. It makes no fucking difference if you havea rear brake. Also does your bmx have a hs33 on the back does it?

of course it makes a difference if youve got a back brake.like i said this is trials not freestyle bmx.
theres no need to spin your bars in trials!so why run it through the head tube?

you completely misunderstanded me. i said if you have a rear brake running your cable through the headtube will make no difference. He runs it through the headtube to be cool.
