Amazing Vid
Big moves and also really smooth considering you run front maggy
Bring out a street vid, got a feeling it would be pretty sick.
Good song aswell

Nice Video Man
Love the song

Hope the forks are ok mate
Sorry about the delay in getting them to you...
treat them nicely
-
Hope your Happy with the condition of the GU
The KO is the sex to ride btw
just need a longer topcap bolt as i forgot about the headtueb length on the KOs 
-
I was browsing on Tarty for a solution to this and i found quite a cheap solution in a form of a new stem:
This stem only offers one length (120mm) with 6 Degree rise
On the other hand this stem offers a variety of Lengths that you can pick from best to suit you style and the geometry of you bike, but again only 6 degree rise only : /
If your willing to 'splash the cash' a bit then heres another option, the shorter version of the echo SL stem has pretty much the same rise (18 degrees) as what you have on your current stem; but is also 40mm longer than your current stem. The steerer stack height on this stem for the shorter version is 38mm, so this abolishes your problem
Overall all of these stems offer what you need the most; 35 - 40mm steerer stack height. This solves your problem in short, lol. Although some maybe rather more expensive than others
Hope i have helped mate

I use one of these. You can get away with the middle plates being on there (The ones you use to take out stiff links), but generally I just snap them off straight away and just leave the plates furthest from the pin on to hold the chain when you're breaking it. Used one of these with a Collapse with no fuss. £5, free postage, etc. - get one!
Thanks very much mate
-
Right ive got everything for my bike now except for my chain isnt on, due to the fact i dont have the chain tool : /
ive asked all local bike shops and they dont have a chain tool that fits the KHE Collapse (which i have)
Tarty are also out of stock and they said the dealer are out of stock aswell
So i was wondering would anyone lend me the tool that does this it is the chain tool that fits chain of 1 and 1/8
i can return the favour as i have all tools except this lol
Im actually begging :$
PS: sorry if this is in the wrong section, i didnt know where to put it : /
-
Oh no my old frame
Will definitely keep a look out for you mate
I wont be wanting the £100 either, your happiness would be enough
Keep a look out in bike shops in your neighbouring towns as well mate, as i know someone who found their stolen bike that way.
Also Sam are there any shops near where the bike bike was stolen from? or any groups of people that regulary hang around there?

They are purple ....
and nooo the back wheel is f~cked lol
oh right... i get you know
You spray them yourself?
-
i believe rainbird lives in the west country, so im guessing he's not just gonna pop down for a quick ride in essex.... lolz
I believe he would be talking about Mr.Rainbird aswell as Simps, Skoze and Mr.Rainbird all ride 24" i believe.
-
Yeah, I thought that too. Do they make those in a 160mm or 165? I thought they only made them in 170 and 175.
I think middleburns are made in 165, 170 and 175mm
I maybe wrong though
-
Yerp lad try all back ones f!!cked though lolIt's called spray paint lol.
Considering in the quote above, I think he meant to say 'try-all black ones'
-
Yerp lad try all back ones f!!cked though lol
Oh right my screen makes them look purple
-
What rims are they? Try-all?
They look sexy

i had this problem before :/
if you have a spare 8mm allen key then what i did was used the adhesive stuff they use in bathrooms to stick the allen key inside the bolt and then it unscrews like normal
Messy but it works
and some time you can get your allen key back if your lucky
