  1. If the marks around the travel printing are scratches, they're pretty f**ked. That'll ruin the seals and will end up just bad. Also converting to air completely is generally a no no as the coil spring would have scratched the internal wall of the stanchion and wouldn't allow the air shaft/seal to seal properly.
  2. Gosh, I wish I had a computer in the kitchen to leave myself logged in to!
  3. Some slippers, and a dildo, so if she doesn't like the slippers, she can go f**k herself.
  4. Rim only I take it? You'll need the stans tubeless rim tape and yes it needs to be pretty tight on there. Definitely run latex (stans stuff is great) and you'll be forever happy. I've found the Continental Barons to be pretty excellent but are expensive if you want the proper UST ones, but i've been running the cheap cheap ones at 17 quid a pop at retail and they've been fine. My folding Rubber Queens had a lot of trouble running true with my Flows so I would either go UST or cheap wired.
  5. However many years on - just had it's first ride in about 18 months(?), fresh bleed and set up and it's rockin'. Lil bit tatty but ah well.
  6. Not much to speak of in msconfig, disabled a few things and will see how it goes but i do remember running it in safemode with no joy still. How would i sort the static ip business? Yeah I'm careful with shit toolbars etc, I absolutely hate them, I've had the problem since the start just before christmas. Cheers.
  7. Yeah sounds about right, just don't have an install disc, nor a dvd to burn one to ;/
  8. For an XC bike Continental Mountain King IIs are great, even better in Black Chilli folding with Pro-tection.
  9. No programs work with the internet. It always seems to refuse a connection etc. It's like there's a very strict firewall that I can't switch off. Sorry forgot to mention again (cos I typed up a better explained post but accidently deleted it) that i've disabled all firewalls and anti virus software.
  10. Hello guys, nice to see some old forumfaces. How have you all been? So I bought an Acer Aspire V3-531 running windows 7 home and nothing seems to work, just seems like some twatty firewall jobsworth program or setting is getting in the way. Nothing works with the internet, just IE (wank). Spotify, Skype (already installed with this OS), nothing works. It's really annoying. Have obviously googled it with one or two people having the same problem but nothing helped. You guys are amazing so thanks in advance. Considering Ubuntu but it sounds like a faf. Fatty.
  11. I like to pop up every once a year or so. Not entirely sure why I'm not a senior yet though.

    I remember the day it was announced, just 2 weeks before i met him in Pompey for the DJ ride. Can't believe it was that long ago! R.I.P
  13. New cheap bike, bought in hope that my ti hardtail would sell asap... It's on ebay now so everyone go buy it! And my other mtb for good measure
  14. CLS has it. Sektors are the new pike/revelations so they're great. U turn is awesome, coil is plush and these days not too heavy. Go for 20mm if you can because it'll be much stiffer, not a pain in the arse either because maxles are like a qr lever. I've got lyriks on my hucker which might be too much, theyre 115 to 160mm travel with a compression adjuster which almost locks out but it'll blow through. I wouldn't have remote lock out, because it sucks! Suntour forks make Marzocchi forks anyway so if you really want budget maybe suntour but they won't be very technical.

    Jumpstyle parrot

    A silly jumpstyle parrot that fat pants uploaded that I should really delete as it has nothing to do with trials forum but i have to admit it is very handy to use for testing this most excellent youtube style modification for invision power board 2.2.3

    Fat Pants vid 1

    Pretty shit vid, i was really bored this evening and decided to have a kerb sesh (all i have around here!) It's shit, but i think it's pretty good, definitely put a smile on my face watching it back.
  17. They're bladders that they use to inflate inside the tubes to get the shape... Got 2 of those frames at my shop atm
  18. All the servicing gets done in my LBS, by me, because i work there
  19. http://www.bikeradar.com/mtb/forums/viewtopic.php?t=12746762 to you, 1350
  20. Worst. Idea. Ever. Take the piss out of my manager at least thrice a week for having them on his Whyte.
  21. It's a case of paying the network it's locked to about 10 quid then...
  22. If you wanna jailbreak it you can get ultrasn0w which is the unlocker, through the cydia store... Usually works!
