oww dear lord have they re-welded the bottom bracket to the chainstay?

i imagine you mean the main hose?well,they undo the nut that either attaches the hose to the lever or the m6/m8 piston,then they put the hose through the frame then reconnect the hose again.doing this may lead the brake needing a re-bleed steve

join the ride whenever you get there,make sure you have one of the local boys numbers so that you can find us though

i tried removing a sprocket by using a chain whip once ,and the chain snapped resulting in me punching myself very hard in the face

there phone line never seems to clear it took them a few days to reply to a email i sent them,patience may be need mate.i heard somewhere they got a new system wich is playing up a bit. steve

anyone can come along more the merryer

brum ride next weekend matey i'll give you some pointers on rear wheel hopping and maybe peddle gapping ,not that im amazing at either anyways but i'll try to help steve

boil the kettle ,make a cuppa and then poor the rest of the hot water onto the threads and pull the bar,should come off then.if it doesnt more extreme measures may need to be taken

hansventres are pretty good,long lasting and pretty grippy i have been running the 40/42 version for 8months i say and i still got loads of meat on there . steve

i personnally hate load freehubs/freewheels ,sounds like a aeroplanes is strapped to the bike plus you cnt sneak up on any totty with that racket

deng brakes in theory should be better than maggies but i've heard alot of bad things about the leaking and the voided warrinty if you run cnc'd brake backing. back to topic,vees tend to have more modulation than maggies so they are going to be better suited to the front,though some riders like their front maggies.tarty bikes and chainreactioncycles both sell good vee's and levers ,to make a decision i would search the forum to find out what others are using have you considered a front disk brake?disc brake usually perform well over a greater spectrum of conditions than rims brakes,for example 2inch deep mud,a good disc brake is a avid bb7 steve

i believe tart and trial-uk sell zhi parts and frames,maybe ak them to build up a bike for you?you'd then be able to fine tune the parts to you style steve

i envy you lol ,really nice bike you got there steve

these are wise words ,ben broke my crossover before the ride had started message to ben,i'll bring the crossover that you lent me last time i rode brum i got a braided crossover now so you cant bust it lol steve

also have a look on trashzen ,great step by step guides to trials techniques and tricks. clicky steve

could it be the bb hieght? looks like a bb drop of 10cm or so. steve

one week to go lads and laddies,anyone else going to come?

its like backwheeling but you pull the handle bars up slightly later and smack the front wheel ontop of the wall.try watching ryan leech's art of trials dvd steve
