  1. Dude. i used 2 see you round town. I had a crappy orange diamondback bmx with plastic wheels if u remember. anyway did u give up riding? havnt seen you round in like years. its a shame if you did. u made me get into bikes.

  2. Yo, me and a mate are just looking for some people to do some online challenges with later, if you fancy joining us leave a post here. Will prob be on after 10.
  3. Ditto. Ive said it before and I will say it again, simply fantastic service. No limits, no downtime in my 7 years use. Guanteed speeds, I have never dropped below my advertised speed ever. The only time I have not had the service was when BT were digging up the road for some reason and went through the f**king NTL cable with a pneumatic drill. Otherwise fantastic price for the service and at the end of feburary speed bumps are happening 4mb is going to 10mb and then 20mb will be upped to 50mb. So speed is not a problem.
  4. Im just going to say dont buy an iPod. Yes I can say this because I do own one, all of my friends own them and have had more problems than any other MP3 player I have seen, as well as the annoying DRM not allowing you to copy files to and from the iPod, also syncing to just one iTunes library is pretty annoying. There shold be a way to factory reset however you will lose your data.
  5. He is a legend, I learnt how to build wheels from his site. I hope the site stays up it has so much useful stuff on it that has helped me over the years. R.I.P.
  6. I dont know if your running vista but it has a lot of standard processes, more than xp did so 60 or so is not uncommon. I have about 63 I think but no slowdown. Might have some nice spyware or something though.
  7. The top one could be from a slightly dodgy weld, but you are right there are not the traditional sharp edges from CNC machines. Who knows, maybe its forged but I doubt it.
  8. That was my fantastic doing Got my skillz with the cam down.
  9. Of course, all the sockets have surge protection then I have one fat surge protector at the wall itself.
  10. Update. Got some new stuff, 3 x 22, there is a 4th downstairs but they sent it by accident. Oh how tempting it was. I shall wait till next month to mount a 24/26 above the middle 22". Only change to the rig is a second HD 2600. Enjoy. Just to give you all nightmares. I have one wall socket powering all of this , it goes into a lead that splits to 4, then from that lead I have a multitap that goes into 2 and 4, off the 2 is my clock and the light, off the 4 i then have a 6 way and a 4 way, off the 6 way is another 4 way, and I have2 sockets spare. You do the math Should be getting a nice dual socket near the pc setup soon as its getting rediculous.
  11. XC and Mono are the same except eh XC has a disc mount, both with 21 engagements 3 springs all at once nothing offset. Bulb has 36 engagement points and I think it too uses 3 springs however its ratchet teeth are a lot skinnier as it fits all 36 into one ring, thus they break a lot for trials. Ti Glide is old as far as I remember, again its a mono with a Ti main body with out alu flanges, 21 engagements, 3 springs nothing offset. I would reccomend spending a bit more, as most people probaboly will and getting the Pro II trials hub, 48 engagements, 4 springs, offset 2 engage at a time on a 24 tooth ratchet, thus lots of engagements and very strong as the teeth and ratchets are deep.
  12. Sorry about the late replies, been in france. I would just go with the Acer, my mate got a 22" HP monitor and he paid £70 more, my monitors have better quality on colours and better viewing angles which is quite amusing for me . Will be adding another 22" to my setup and then a 24" as well, then hooking up virgin plus Should be sorted then.
  13. Im running a Surely 17t on my cranks for over a year now and no problem what so ever with Echo CNC 7075 cranks, he must have a defected pair or not put it on properly.
