  1. For the record the halfords torque wrenches are made by Norbar. I have a 3/8 halfords one. have had it for years. Used every day, and im a Ford Tech so its gets alot of use.
  2. Inspired Hex team Fourplay forks Hope Pro 2's front and rear Inspired front rim, Spank rear 2011 hs33, echo clamps, Koxx pads rear Hope Mono trial tech 2 front Inspired high rise bars, saddle, post, clamp Trialtech stem and Magnesium pedals. Holy Roller MaxPro60's Great fun
  3. It will be very slow and cause the pistons to stick. The silicon lubricant is too viscous to give a good lever and fluid speed. Also the additives will cause the pistons to stick.
  4. Has there been any more thought on day tickets? Would love to come but can only do Saturday.
  5. I will be in daventry tomorrow for a training course. Is there anyone in the area that fancies a ride in the evening? 1630 onwards.

    Tyres

    Its all personal preference Also depends on what sort of riding you want to do. If your more into street then you can lend towards more slick tyres, or something bigger. If you are more into competition or natural riding then you want to focus on grip and mud shedding. Personaly I would say for street go for Scwalbe big better rear and Scwalbe racing ralph front, however these arent great for more muddy or off camber natural sections. Try all tyres and Continental der kaiser seem to be the best here, although the conti does weigh more than your bike. I would rate michelins for muddy stuff
  7. Id be happy if I could join you guys for a ride. Cant make week days though, sundays is really the only day I can get out. If you do manage to make brighton on the 6th Ill join you. Allways up for an evening ride in worthing if your about?
  8. I'm our quite alot. Allways up for a ride in the evenings ect
  9. me and a few friends once robbed a bank. We went in, sealed the place off, took hostages. We made them all strip to their underwear, tied them up and seperated them into offices. We argued with the police for ages. While this was going on we knocked a wall down and build a false room behind some shelves. I hid in there with all the money and diamonds, while my friends dressed like the hostages, and set off smoke and ran out with all the hostages. A few days later I just slid a pannel over and walked out with everything. Oh wait.....
  10. Theres a few tricks from the old days of tioga tryes you can use. Stick a car seatbelt inside the tyre Cut the valve off an old innertube, and then cut all the way round it on one skin, and wrap your innertube it it. Cut the sidewalls off an old trye and stick them inside yours Run a smaller tyre inside yours Or use a tubeless tyre. I used use a michelin comp 24 with an innertube in. Impossible to get a pinch flat even at 10psi.
  11. it uses a standard headset.
  12. You would best speak to easybike.cn Thats speedrace parent company.
  13. Which one are you looking at? I have a 2011 Solo, the one with the very small/cut out headtube. I love it. Rides really well, nice and light. Only concern would be the strength of the headtube for hooks, but I cant do them so no worries there.
  14. Just so you know thats a bearing puller. Easily available from any decent tool shop. When I did a BB change for a friend I used a mallet to remove, then made a tool to fit out of a long threaded rod, and some spacers and long socket that fitted over the axle. Easy
