Advantages: Great Trigger, Very accurate!, very fast balls per second, light Disadvantages: Manufacturing
...I had been using a smartparts shocker for about 3 months before i got a planet eclpise ego. I have had alot of experience with paintball markers (guns) and this one has been one of my favourites! I have used many guns:
tippmanns (98 custom, a5)
smartparts guns (ion, impulse, shocker)
wdp angels (speed)
autocockers (e2 eblade)
planet eclipse (ego)
This gun is reliable and i have had no any problems within the 3 month period of its use. Having said that they do have some flaws in the making 1 out of 30 shockers will have slightly weaker parts than the others which can be corrected with the year guarantee thats normally provided depending on where you buy it (i would reccomend going to an actual paintball store instead of ordering online that way if you get a problem you can take it back and they will fix it (normally for free...

Advantages: Excellent reliability, shifting, and ease of setup Disadvantages: Price, Price and Price
...I've had an X-7 on my hardtail now for 2 years of MTB riding.
It was a doddle to fit. Remove old derailleur and chuck in bin, Bolt on shiny new X-7, set high limit screw, attach cable, pull tight with pliers, and do locknut up. Amazingly it changed perfectly without needing any further adjustment.
Changing is extremely smooth. Downshifts while pedalling are impressively good. I hardly have to back off at all when changing down. This is a huge bonus on hills. Up shifts are good too, if a little slower than downshifts.
Durability and reliabilty are impressive. I have bounced this thing off rocks, covered it in so much mud you couldn't even see it, washed it in rivers, and generally abused it, and still it keeps changing.
I have been through 2sets of jockey wheels, there is now play in the cage arm, and changes are not quite as smooth...

Advantages: LightWeight, indestructible, good price Disadvantages: not the Cheapest of Cranks
...it incredibly strong plus the fact the bash ring is about 1/2 an inch think. The cranks are cnc machined from one piece of aluminum making them incredibly light.
Ridding with these cranks is a delight the power transfer is great as the crank and chain ring and bash ring are so solid there is no flex in the arms and the bash ring is low profile so gives you that little extra clearance but yet protects your chain perfectly.
The Cranks come in wither taper or Isis fitting, Isis is a great as no matter how hard you tighten the bolt, once you want to remove the crank remove the bolt and generally just give the crank a tap and off it comes. The Most amazing thing however is that these cranks have a lifetime warranty, even stated for trials or Downhill use. There so confident that there indestructible. I smashed them some many times onto concrete...

For those of you who use lip plumpers, does it tingle when you first buy it, and then a few days later you get used to it and it doesn't tingle at all? And yet for it to work in your mind, illogically of course, it must tingle? I used to be the same... more
Midsomer Murders has some great who done it plot lines which will keep you glued to the screen. The murderer is always the person you least expected and so is the motive. Barnaby does not sound or look like a copper and I suppose that's what makes him a... more
