I think the gold parts go really well. Those pedals look pretty tasty. Dan

Its good that everyone has their own tastes in things but i really cant see what there is to like about these brake clamps, they really don't look like anything special to me.
They look home made, i doubt you can buy them anywhere. But i may be wrong.

Awsome find!! Loved the syncronised riding at the start, also the part when he's hopping around the guy lying down. Anyone know what bikes they're riding ?

I absouloutley hate the buggers
I have my window open usually as it ususally gets hot in the study with my computer on, and i'd say i get at least 3 in a night all of which i kill by throwing an old MBUK at 
. There does seem to be more of them around than there usually is. Dan

Get your self some cod liver oil tablets! "they keep your joints supple, and flexible" according to the boots packet.

Looks very nice
What does that t-master and zoo riser setup feel like? I'm thinking about getting the same bar and stem myself. If only there wasn't such a shortage of black t-masters

Looks like you've improved a fair bit since your last vid, nice one
This one had some decent music too 
(my opinion ) Dan

Looks awesome, ecspecially with those forks. always liked gu's

Zoo! risers and onza carbons seem to be the choice of a lot of riders, so i'm guessing they are pretty good. I use t-raptors just because they're standard on the t-pro. But i'm looking to get some zoo risers as the t-raptors have far to much sweep for my liking
. Give the search a try!! Dan

I had thought about something like that. But to be honest would you really want to be carrying that round with you all day ??

I'm doing mine in Sound control (Southampton), should be pretty good. Hopefully get some free stuff

Loved the video, will be kept as one of my classics. Nice riding and it made me chuckle too

Use the search for info on those freewheels there's plenty of topics on them. The overall opinion seems to be:
Tensile- well made , good value for money, plenty of engagement points.
Eno- Extremely well made, get what you pay for, more engagements.
It all depends on what you want to pay for one

Very nice. That 'prototype' title sure tricked me
. What forks are you using??Cheers
Dan

when i spin the cranks round i can see the freewheel goin from side to side is this the reason for it creaking, is it stressing the freewheel, is there anyhting to help stop it, or just buy a descent freewheel?
I have a tensile freewheel and mine still moves from side to side a bit, i can see why you want to stop this it annoys me too as the chain goes from slightly slack to tight. But i think this is a common problem with front freewheel users. Are you sure the creaking isn't coming from your bottom bracket area? It is most likely that you need to take you cranks off and put some grease (not loads) on the tapers where the cranks sit. This got rid of my creaking but in the end i just got a new Bottom bracket. To take the cranks off you need a tool called a crank extractor. But yea i would get a decent freewheel ( tensile )
This may help: Freewheel topic

No proper tools needed, just a screwdriver and hammer, you hammer the lockring anti clockwise I think, someone will back me up on this. It's the ring on the inner side of the freewheel with the 2 notches out, use 1 to put a screwdriver in and hammer it, thus turning it.
Anti-clockwise is the correct way
i found that when i was using an ACS it needed tightening pretty much after every ride, just check it regularly. Also If i remember correctly when my chain was very tight it kept causing the lockring to come un-done so just don't have it too tight. Dan

Cheers for the advice. I'm going to order some m1's as soon as i get enough cash
-
Right thats it! im not watching any more bails for at least a month, they're putting me off riding
-

Hi,
I'm looking to get some new forks for my t-pro as i'm not a fan of the straight forks that it comes with and much prefer the feeling of curved forks. I have also heard that they are heavy compared to other forks. I was thinking about getting:
Ko bikes-m1,
Echo lites,
Viz curved,
Possibly Koxx forks ( most expensive
) I need them to have 4 bolt mounts as i don't want to fork out more cash on a disk brake. I have used the search but there isn't any info on the Ko-bikes forks ( most probably because they have just come out ) . Please could you give reasons why or why i shouldn't get any the forks listed above, or suggest some other 20" curved forks.
Any help appreciated.
Dan

Just make your own...tie a metal tea tray to your downtube..should work
zoo baby!
Haha what a bodge, I'm sure that would look really nice
I was looking to get one of those Armourdillo's but i think they stopped making them, i don't see why some other company doesn't start making them as they were pretty sucessful (i think). Probably try and make my own if i get desperate, just get some of those plastic rods, cut up an old wetsuit and zip tye it to the frame

Really enjoyed watching that, riding was immense. Nice to have a bike video with some relaxing music instead of killswitch etc.
