  1. Personally, there're only two setups I'd really run.....rear king with Burns/echo/tryall cranks.....or Echo SL with try-all 135 rear hub and echo/tryall cranks. Rear freewheel seems a bit halfyway, the biggest advantage with FFW is moving the weight forwards away from the rear wheel.
  2. Massive portion of the video doing nothing....a failed gap...and onto a brick Hardly worth videoing in my opinion, but whatever floats your boat
  3. So true.... Only because they're cheap I reckons. I reckon the majority of people run FFW now anyway
  4. Desperately need the size of the aluminium washer thing off an HD bolt......need the diameter. Cheers
  5. 260gr i think... 740mm width, 10* upsweep, 10* backsweep, 31.8mm clamp.
  6. Either will do. I ran me t-poop with 170's with no issues whatsoever....loads of people do
  7. Big herne bay ride blatantly ( as ive just got told thats the best place to ride around these here parts... )
  8. Yeh the SD7 is VERY good lever....only changed mine as I snapped it in a bail Chainreactioncycles do them pretty cheaply I believe
  9. Weather looks nice here 40mins away to the south.... Hm, according to XC weather it may rain at about 4 Weather from BBC looks poo....rain at 9, 12 then 6. Still going though
  10. King Hubs Pro series Rims Nuc stem Viz pro 720 bars King headset Middleburns Super pro ti bash Dual RB designs levers Coust CNC'd pads F +R Try-all front tyre, Der Kaiser rear. Wellgo MG-1 Ti kit Reset Ti BB Triton Deema frame / Koxx Orange Sky/ Coustellier V2 Got 80% of that.... Needs new BB, Burns and rear rim
  11. To be honest, anything more than 160 is overkill on a mod if you run a Magura Louise, BB7, hope mono trial or BB5....they're just powerful enough with the wee discs. A larger disc can give you more bite though.
  12. If youre really syuck, I have one I could post
  13. Very good mate, impressed Music was rather nice too
  14. Shimano XTR lever is brilliant...along with some Odyseey linear slic kable ( or similar )
  15. Fair enough, better to ask then to find out the hard way
  16. It's called a Pidgeon, wheelswap, deadweight and a fair few other retarded names. I've been riding for 3 years now and cant do it over a foot So i'm not the best person to ask. Here's a link off trashzen to the move I *think* you means.... Wheelswap
  17. Nooo... first try whacking an imperial size allen key in, thats slightly bigger than the original size. If not, then try bashing in a Torx bit. One of they ^^
  18. So true.....build one...if you don't like it, build the other. I'd personally go for the Ashton every time
  19. He means angle-grinder discs... Well, a fair few, but as the diameter decreases, so does the area of the disc in contact with the rim when you grind. If its really wee you have to make more passes. Also depends if you sharpen it, what rim you use, and how harshly you grind. I'd say around 25 medium grinds maybe? My metal cutting last around 20
  20. Sik sounds a-ok...hopefully see you there Ryan
