    Light Or Strong ?

    I am not smooth - therefore - strength. I'll adjust quite quickley to a heavy bike - my bank account takes longer to adjust to lightweight frames.
  2. Headphone strap under helmet is the most disgusting feeling I have ever experienced.
  3. Unless it's a beasty front-rim/you're astronomically smooth, youll likely kill it pretty quick. Good rear rims are double-walled, for extra strength. Front wheels don't (or at least SHOULDN'T ) take as much of a beating, so can be weaker to save weight.
  4. I couldn't sit through that god-awful music
  5. Did you make that synth's patch, or was it a refill?
  6. never had an issue with the £8 Cane Creek one on Tarty. Got a Pig Pro DH now, which is excellent - but I didn't get it 'ause the £8 one packed up - came with a new frame. Get a mid-range, decent one, and save the extra for sommat swanky later on.
  7. I hate to be the pretentious twat that relates it to trials - but I'm riding a lot at the minute. Those times when you go up to back, setting up for a sidehop, and it's just... there. No hops/whatever needed like - when it's just a "pop up, stall, GO!". I love 'em. Also - dropping to a teeny little manual, then dropping off the edge

    Roadie Sizes.

    I'm after a roadie to get places, and I've found one i like the look of for sub £200 full build. Trouble is - it's a 60cm frame, and I'm 5'9". I've been told this is quite a bit too big for me - but its really nice lookin' and cheap. Just throught I'd check out. Ts.
  9. Any links for us non-Facebook faggots?

    Onza T-pro

    Forks should be the FIRST thing you update on the budget Onza's - without question
  11. What the hell kind of bike shop doesn't stock hanger bolts?! Got any bolt-shops local?

    King Bmx

    Just to reinforce the above, as you sound the sort to do what you think, rather than take people's advice ... King BMXs are mod spacing, which is 116. Normal kings are 135. The singlespeed king has a wider hubshell (more distance between the flanges) to make up the difference, at the same time as making a stronger wheel build. No - you cannot just change the axle.
  13. The geiger counter is also inside the box.
  14. A dishonest goose? Hahahahaha. I can't WAIT to see the responses to this...

    Takeaways

    When things got a tad desperate (waiting for my student loan to come in...) I took to cheap food. For about three weeks (and this is an average of over that period) I was living on 68 pence of food a day (excluding milk - I forgot to put that in the calculation).
  16. If - ultimately - we are solitary, why do we feel the need to be... well... not? (Words escape me at the minute.) Why do we have to feel lonely - when we only ever going to be on our own, anyway?
  17. Best I've ever had: SD7 lever, Wilko's cable, Promax arms, Shimano Carbon Booster, Phatpads in Heatsink CNC backings. It's perfect for me. Bitey enough, and a bog load of hold.
  18. As the title says really... Found them a few days ago, and it's wicked pre-ride motivation. Don't mind if I've seen them - it'd be good to have a decent list all in one place. Anything (semi-)old school... ~2000ish? Seems to've been a lot of good riding in that time, but I wasn't around to see it. Trialskings and BS Stylez links welcome
  19. I've never seen anyone static a 24" so high as that. Was nuts.

    Guillem Mauri On Zoo!

    Muchos muchos goodos. Easily in my top 5
  21. Every time I see one of your videos - I cant help but think your bike looks too long for you. Fair play, you can oviously ride it - but it looks kinda strange. Excelent video though
  22. Shame... Could've gone for the hattrick, and got the Aurem III Really love the colours Rockman use - deyz iz bare lush. Torn between that Manus, and the Limey 320. Edit: I like how none of the other bits change... Just the frame
