  8. I can assure you, that as of half an hour ago, he's still just as much of a useless tosser
  9. Goodness knows, I've only ever turned up on a sunday and sneaked about under the cover of two stroke smoke They have got a bit more mardi recently, is there no contact number for them lying about?
  10. Hmm, yeah the muslims do have a funny idea of dressing, altho it does look warm. Hindi's though, spot on. They have the most amazing clothes ever, so beautiful. I challenge you to wander through Leicester at Diwali without finding summat you fancy
  11. You take one train from leicester to derby, change and bosh up the erewash line. He take a train from newark to notts, one from notts to derby and then derby to whatstandwell, so yeah, i can easily see it taking 3 hours
  12. hmmm, I was a bit out. Still I suppose it shows how an interaction with such a small amount of people can cause such bother
  13. Isn't 95% white a reasonable approximation to the demographic of this country anyway?
  14. The T-raptor bars like this are flat so that's not what you're after. How about some mtb bars, azonics or eastons?

    Needs must when the devil drives.
  18. The shroud and pipe from around the exhaust manifold are there to give a bit of warm air to the engine when it needs it. As you drag air through the induction system, the drop in pressure causes the temperature to drop. On cold, damp days, this can lead to ice forming in the carb/injection bodies (I can assure you this isnt much fun, my car did it like crazy till I got a shroud and pipe sorted out). The little bit of heat that's given up to the air by the exhaust manifold is enough to stop the ice forming
  19. There you go. Altho I would call what you've termed as rake, "offset". Traditionally, the rake is what we now call the head angle. Another term, the trail, refers to the distance along the ground from a line drawn through the headtube centre, to a line drawn vertically from the front wheel axle.

    Revenge Part. 2

    You know (or should know) as well as I do that childish is a frame of mind, not a symptom of your age. Besides, I used to make pointless dangerous toys when I was younger, I just grew out of it I suppose.

    He has a point, making guns out of bits of pipe is pretty childish. Good fun though.
  23. Stronger axles and in theory, less chance of rounding the cranks, altho it is still more than possible and a lot more expensive to correct. The BB bearings are smaller too, and generally last a lot shorter time than sq taper ones.
