  1. Football sucks balls. As does Wayne Rooney. Captain Controversial, over and out.
  2. Nice inspired james. New frame but still no bash? Prioritys old bean! Edit: Urgh, can't type. Bed.
  3. Same. He cropped the copyright watermark out of my image that hes used on the site, and the advertisement banner on here. Not very, polite, or something. Not that fussed though.
  4. Other way round isn't it? 20" is more expensive. That I don't know.
  5. Started to notice recently that prices of various things have been becoming reasonable again. Thought it was topic worthy. After a few months of prices of all new frames and some components to match getting a little bit out of control, its nice to see things going back to the way they were. Dare I say, possibly better than they were? For a little while, marked (in my mind) by the release of the new Control frame, there wasn't really a healthy choice of frames for under £400. Which for somebody like me is too much really. I think the old range of Deng frames (and some others) that were all £300 give or take £20, hit the marketing nail on the head. Bumping prices up to £400 (I know, rising material costs etc but...) wasn't a particularly smooth move. Recently, the new Onza Pro Series frames, Atomz Premier range and now the Because 'Simple' range have marked a little rational pricing coming back on the scene. All undoubtedly up-to-date geometry, not heavy, and well designed and manufactured frames, that are even aesthetically pleasing. Very cool stuff in my opinion. The only thing I can really see any of them being faulted on, its the Because's 116mm spacing and looking at it, tendency to flex. Nothing that can't be sorted out with a booster though. For sub £150, you can't really argue with it. Not too sure why I felt the need to say any of this, but its nice to see I suppose.
  6. I like Connor. Now who's been proven wrong?
  7. Thought Trialsman did them? 07000 442232
  8. Sick shit. He is the daddy. So much power to keep the wheels spinning for that amount of time etc.
  9. Abingdon United's Message board as per Charlie's speach. I see Bigman has already left a message, would be great if others could too.
  10. Copper greased before putting the sprocket on?
  11. Just got back, really enjoyed it despite the weather and falling off. Massive thanks to Sue, Charley and family for making it possible. RIP DJ
  12. Just about to go and help set it up... In the pouring rain.
  13. COOOOOOOOL. I love it. Should have done the stock in that colour too! I don't feel at home without a lairy colour on my bike. Edit: Not a fan of the forks though. Geo looks similar to onza forks as per '05 full build T-Pros etc.
  14. Earlier trialtech grips were fine with just water. Got some new ones (with the logos on either end) and they are wack. Nothing can make them stick.
  15. News topic on this about a month ago...
  16. What is that califerarearara? Nothing to do with Ozonys anymore?
