  1. my local bike shop charges a tenner and 18 for a set of dt spokes
  2. i run one on my jump bike and its alot better than its rival the DMR STS, because of its deisgn.
  3. looking at the onza site the t-bird has a 19inch rim and the t-vee has a 20, the 19inch rim will not fit on the t-vee
  4. i always thought the t-vees had 20inch rims front and rear, this meaning it will not fit because the brake mounts will be too high, correct me if im wrong.
  5. tartybikes sell a braided hose kit. tartybikes
  6. yeah my jump bike was like it for months
  7. there is three pins holding the cassete togethor grid the tops of these pins and it will fall apart, bobs your uncle you have a single speed kit.
  8. always used to be T-Pros but recently i think they downgradded from maggies to v's but installed better speced compnents such as cranks etc. i read it in a topic a while back rupertbear
  9. um no 26inch wheels dont give better "absorbtion" that that link you sent is only a frame. trials bikes have just as many spokes usally 32 or 36, read the FAQ about big and little wheels its all down to personal preference and yes you can get rear disk brakes but there not very common because of the side hop issue.the onza range is very good for beginers. rupert
  10. yeah firstly stop typing like a clown with shoes on his hands and type correctly, secondly you cant purchase it off him through trials forum, you will need to add him on msn or the likes of if you rearly need to. rupert
  11. http://www.cyclebasket.com/products.php?pl...2p390&z=362 there selling them for £21 brand new, i think you will be lucky to get a £5 for them second hand, who ever said there worth £140 is teling lies, for a £140 you can get a nice set of forks such as marzocchis or manitous. and can you describe "makin trials" to be please. rupert
  12. sorry im new to this from now on ill use the search box before i make another topic sorry guys. in the end i bought some koxx reds off a mate.
  13. ive never had problems with dropping fones while riding, if its that bad just leave it at home. rupert
  14. ive always been a fan of echo stuff and so are a few of my mates, nice geo, strong only a handful of echo controls have cracked over the years. my next frame wil be a echo control. go for the the echo rupert
  15. what sprocket are you running on the front at the moment?i dont think adding 2 or 4 on each sprocket will work because youde end up with a higher gear.
  16. shouldnt rearly be buying stuff in pre-members anyway.
  17. looking at koxx or heatsink magura brake pads... what would you say? The blue heatsink pads or The red koxx pads
  18. i have been a member for nearly 2 weeks and i was woundering 1 how long does it take to get valideted and 2 how do you know when you have been validated... Thanks Rupert
  19. would it be possibale to fit a mini lever onto a hope e4 which has the sport lever? if so would it perform aswell because the piston sizes may differ etc thanks rupert
  20. you cant buy or sell parts in new members section sorry.
  21. sounds as if there is not enough tension on the spokes and the rims flexing on the drive side as you pedal, hope this helps rupert
  22. i running heatsink blues on a light grind now and its amazing. only slips when they get slightley wet thats the only down side.
  23. oh and if boiling them doesnt work, try sanding them down and leaving them in the oven for 20 mins always works for me, thats if the pads are contaminated by the way. and give the rotor a good scrubbing with hot soapy water.
  24. you could try boiling the pads this can sometimes help If you have some crap on the pads this will get it off... If that doesn't work then just leave them for a bit longer to bed in etc
