  1. Waiting for replies back from around 40 aluminium wholesalers I emailed yesterday.... In the meantime: Hmm titanium nitride coating for big-ballin' gold.....
  2. Nah, appears the lip on the bash was hitting the inside of the crank arm.....and I assume when flipped the lip would catch the chain? Still...if you could cut in between the holes, why couldn't you just do it without the holes?
  3. But they wear down like hell....and i've seen 3 bikes where this has happened...hence my reluctance to buy
  4. Ah, plan...may justbite the bullet and buy some soon Hm, thats not too bad...worth it considering the epic performance. wayyyyy better performance. Pretty much the best Magura pads I've ever used. He speaks truth Nope, not at all...the pictures show that
  5. Used the *real* coust pads on Joe Seddon's bike......really want some now. Anybody know anywhere apart from www.trialprod.com to get them? Heatsink Coust pads above *Real* coust pads below
  6. I think most people on here will say risers... Viz pro 720, Trialtech sport, Monty 22ti, Try-all Rage bars Can't really go wrong with the above for stock or mod
  7. Here's the email: from paypal@paypal.info.co.uk
  8. Just got an email today saying that paypal is now free between Uk users,,,? Anyone else get this?

  10. Nah just a biiiig bolt by the looks of it? Ah pshhh, who cares...he can ride what he wants. Loads of riders use random bits when they';re waiting for sponsor gear ( have a look at Ben Travis's slate II )
  11. Cheers, well they are designed in the classic horseshoe booster style... have you seen the rendering from a different angle? Here's an earlier one: edit: Won't let me embed a new picture, but have a look at the last page to see what i mean cheers
  12. Hm maybe...the whole idea of the project was to be relatively innovative hence the interesting mounts. The design is fairly tried and tested in Hoffman bikes, albeit with some modifications in my design

  17. Wall Thickness has no been decided at 1.7mm. Materials ordering will commence tomorrow Any more improvements to the frame, let me have 'em The final design is shown below, minus the headtube gusset
  18. I'll get on persuading Billy to come out.....Kieran will be there anyway so im sure he'll be up for a lift
  19. Echo SL and TR seem to have a damned good rep...My tensile seemed ace when I had it though
  20. Man up Old tyre, pvc pipe, Wetsuit material....
  21. some old innertube with gaffa tape to seal should do the trick nicely
