  1. Legend. Thanks for the time. Ps - I replied way before this but just noticed it's not in the thread. Not sure why. But anyway, many thanks.
  2. It's a comas. Don't think it has that many engagement points but not sure on exact model. I've only ever ridden freehubs. So Freewheels are alien to me. If I walk the bike, the pedals will move with the roll for a bit and then eventually they will stop and you'll here the clicks of the Freewheel. Then they'll start moving around again. Definitely a big difference in chain tightness at different spots too so I'm thinking something is out of line. How do I know if one is screw on or splined without taking anything aparts? I'm gonna work on my pads and see if that's aiding the drag too. Thanks for the help
  3. Hi. I've purchased a used Marino version of inspired arcade. Steel frame with horizontal dropouts. I've never had horizontal dropouts before and have a few questions regarding the chain tension. 1) how tight should the chain be? 2) is it normal that depending on where the cranks are in the rotation the chain is different tensions. Is something bent or out of line? 3) the wheel stops spinning pretty quickly when I lift the rear end and spin the cranks a few times. (May be a little disc rub) Is this due to friction in the Freewheel (mounted on hub)? Or is this another sign of chain being too tight? Thanks for any help. Im just new to this set up style and it's getting in my head a little. I want full confidence in my ride otherwise I won't ride it well at all. Thanks, Adam.

    BREAKING BAD, terminally ill cancer sufferer Walter White is a massively over qualified and underpaid chemistry teacher with a disabled son and a baby on the way. He wants his family to be able to survive and not struggle when he is gone....he realises he can make extremely good quality crystal meth.......THEN TONNES OF SHIT HAPPENS OVER 5 SERIES. The second part of the fifth series is about to start next week. THE END IS COMING!!!!!! Dexter, office:usa, prison break, sopranos, homeland, back door bitches: extreme edition.
  7. Nice work dude! Is that a Mavic D521 CD rim on the front?!........I LOOOOOOVE THEM RIMS! reminds me of the good ol' days!
  8. Makes me wanna ride. Job done
  9. i have such a hard on for breaking bad. Best thing I have ever seen on TV by far. LOVE IT!
  10. I can't make it now unfortunately. But enjoy none the less. And you have to find out what his lap time would be if he pelted it, and then you try as hard as you can...imagine you beat it haha. Enjoy anyway
  11. cheers man! I saw that cover with the pin slots and thought that may be the case but thought I had done enough damage and should double check first.
  12. I have an Inspired Hex Team 2012 with the truvativ Holzfeller crankset. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/26_inch_trials_bikes/inspired_hex_team_2012/c47p11401.html I have been having some left to right (through the bb) movement and spoke to Mark W and said it was a problem with some of these cranksets and the bolt just needed tightening as they require more torque than most. So I torqued it to correct levels and it made no difference. So a few weeks go by and Ive just gone to tighten it again and the bolt just snapped. So now I have a snapped off bolt head (thats loose but wont come out) on the drive side of a self extracting pair of cranks. AM I FUGGERED?!!!
  13. No problem with me getting there. Best mate lives in Brixton. Be cool to meet JD too if you were considering him haha
  14. That would be so cool, id be well up for it! But it's entirely up to you of course. You have the power of a God now! anyway, I think I'm a nice bloke! Hit me up if you consider me a chosen one!
