  1. Radial lace your front wheel with ti spokes, use 20 inch inner tubes and get some carbon fibre spacers for your steerer.
  2. Hi lads and ladys. I have an A1 and the hope 110 10 degree rise stem (in gold which i love). I'm 6ft and think my stem is a bit to low. I have read the tarty websit and neil tunny uses the z00 stem which is simmilar to mine in size terms. He is tall and he does some awsome stuff as you all know. What should I be doing stem wise?
  3. Biggest load of bollox ive ever heard. Where is your evidence for that daming statement. TIT
  4. as it says on the tin (topic bar) weekend
  5. Guy if your giving advice make sure you know what your on about. People are not made of money. If that person was to go out/stay in and some tesile offsets that would be a waste of money cos you told him. tensile offsets provide yuo with an oppurtunity to have a wider rim not a thinner rim, the normal mount can accommodate that. My rant over..
  6. Mate your not looking at the pictures. It wouldnt matter what offset the clamps had. Its the slaves that the crank arms are potentialy hitting. How can he get the slaves closer to the rim? He could get a thinner rim or a longer bb or crank arms which miss the slaves on the osscilating stroke! Someone said about Q factor, I thought that was about damping and underdamping in relation to movement as confirmed by Newtons laws of motion. Correct me if im wrong
  7. Yeah things are eaisier and different on the A1. Ive gone from a monty urban to the A!
  8. Its up and running. get out soon. did you find it weird when you first got out on it like as if everything was doing itself?
  9. I just bought an A1, and your saying in essence that they arnt that good?
  10. That guy wrote all over my bike and stem. No bother as i have an adamant a1 now
  11. Flatland is so cool, I would be into it if trials did'nt exist!
  12. I know anything possibile, but why not make the hs33 master cylinders out of surgical stainless steel. The benifits are obvious that they will be stronger and endure more in a crash situation. The weight situation is not that much of an issue if you think that i have been through loads of maggies in the past few years because of them being made out of poo
  13. Whats the difference with the 06 and 07 model and nay pics of 06 model please
  14. You could come to liverpool and see how shote i am at riding, poss have a bevy at mine go to town
  15. I can side hop about 3.5ft into the air but when it comes to sidehop onto an obstacle, I just cant take that leap of faith and I seem to just turn to jelly and faf faf. What shold i do about this mental obstacle. How did you overcome it. Cheers
  16. The Animal team show is on in liverpool, I tink its at new brighton but im not sure. Someone said its at otterpool prom. Anyhows, is anyone going tomorrow
  17. Man i had a simmilar incident on new years day. keep looking for your bike but whatever you do get a new bike that is twice as good as the last one and keep it real safe, I mean real safe. dont let them get away with it, dont let it depress you. your car insurance should cough up though. give it a try
  18. Thats a lovely dog mate (off topic I know)
  19. My way to bleed brakes is to undo the system at the lever end and thread in a pice of maggi tubing, it will screw right in no pobs. Put the other end in a bucket of water and then undo the sytem at slave end then place your finger over the end of the pipe thats submerged in the bucket of water and press lever (if you have oil in your brakes you will wanna thread some pipe in slave end and feed this into a bottle as you will have oil on your rim with this method) keep lever pressed in and release finger release lever and then repeat finger on press lever, until you have passed loads of water through your system. keep the pipe in the lever and under water in bucket end then close sytem at slave end then (assuming you have you bike in an upright position with lever higher than slave) close sytem at lever end. You will have some of the best bleed brakes in town and a lot easier, quiker and better that taking off all you maggies and putting them in the bath.
  20. Loved the electro funky beats, makes a change from the usual sweaty stuff.
