  1. Best of luck . As Robwalker said, a brand name and website is very important because you need a face for your company. When you've finished some products give a couple of freebees out to well-known riders and see if they'll give your product good reviews. I know that i'm more likely to buy a product if it's recommended by other riders and so that would be a good way to gain peoples trust. EDIT: Nice design by the way, reminds me of the Hope stems.

    Songs That...

    Any of the Linkin Park 'Hybrid Theory' album. Less Than Jake - History of a boring town ( ahhh year 8 )
  3. The marta's got a bit more braking power and I don't think it's much weaker than the louise (in terms of strength). to be honest though, the louise is more than powerful enough.
  4. Oh yes! That's a game and a half. No-ones mentioned Vice City yet. Im nominating it purely for the amount of time you can spend on it and not get bored, it's fun in so many ways.

    Gravity

    They managed it?!? I always thought it was impossible to achieve it on earth due to the massive pressures and temperatures involved. I assume you haven't confused fission with fusion.
  6. I agree. You are using your body well to get momentum and lift, but you seem to hoisting you bike over things rather than hopping them. You need to work on your technique. Good vid though .

    Antiviruses

    The free version is rubbish. At the moment i'm using a 30-day trial version of AVG ( 7.5 i think) and i'm quite impressed.

    Gravity

    nice choice of words .
  9. Because it's quite evenly distributed the extra weight is hard to notice. Mine's a lot heavier than my old T-pro but you don't notice it when riding.

    Gravity

    I think the difference between high a low tides would be much smaller. There would probably still be weak tides though because the sun has an effect on the water.

    Front Discs

    Don't get the BB5. It's no way near as good as the BB7. As for which one to choose out of the BB7 and the hope, i'd go for the avid.

    Gravity

    Tidal power. The moon's gravity causes high and low tides in the oceans. Then we just build dams and HEP stations to harness that energy.

    Its only covered in chemistry. And I should know Im doing all three.

    Typing Test

    32 WPM :$ 75 Words Typed 10 Mistakes 4.1 Mistakes Per Minuite Typing is so much easier when your thinking it up yourself. Before I go to Uni im definitely taking a touch typing course .

    Gravity

    Yes. But then those shell can be divided into subshells. So rather than just having 2, 8, 8. Its 1s2 2s2 2p6 etc.

    Gravity

    Just because an atom has 8 electrons in it's outer shell that doesnt mean it'll be neutral. Anyway, the larger molecules require more than 8 to get a full outer shell. As an atom in it's normal state, oxygen is 'neutral' because the protons balance out the electrons. When two or more atoms combine they give, recieve or share electrons and then it's the electrostatic forces (postitive attracted to negative etc.) which hold these atoms together. The reason im confused is that nobody's ever explained (,or at least not to me,) why an electron is positive. How does positive attract negative? I suppose some physicist has worked out a theory using maths, but nothing is proven.
  17. They don't lose power in the wet and have better modulation than a maggy. They seem to bite better aswell.
  18. Do the same as Swize suggested to get the 'sounds and audio devices' box up. Now under the 'Speaker settings' subtitle click the 'Advanced' button. Use the drop down menu to select 5.1 surround sound speakers.

    Name A Band

    Some bands i like at the moment: Alice in videoland Silverstein Scary kids Scaring kids Alkaline trio 36 Crazyfists Just a few of my fav's.
  20. Ebuyer's good for this kind of thing: Ebuyer mp3 page Check this out, £20 for 1gb is crazily cheap: Mp3 player
  21. This video should tell you all there is to know about cutting/re-attaching magura hoses: >> LINK <<
  22. The price is for one lever, not a pair.
  23. The mx comps are bombers , but yes they are a good choice. Finaly, someone whos knows his stuff Fox forks are a solid choice (if you've got £300+ to spend) and they are very ajustable. However, the new floats only come in 130mm as far as i know, which is too long and i dont think you can change the travel that much with a new spring. Manitou are not best known for their reliability ( except for the 'Black' forks ) which is why I wont suggest any of them. Althought the blacks are reliable they are coil sprung which means you probably wont get them firm enough for trials. Marzocchi are your best bet and their closest fork to your needs is the MX comp.
  24. must be a compensation thing.. Im 16 and ride an Adamant A3 ( for the record it the short version )
