  1. Guys give the lad a chance. He's been riding the thing for around a month and already winning comps left right and centre. He looks like he's just out on a jolly in this vid, really playful style. Loving seeing a bit of change. Poor benito though.
  2. Looks nice. Dan yours is pretty similar to one of my old ice's Looks nice. Dan yours is pretty similar to one of my old ice's
  3. They're not actually holes. But in the past I drilled the sidewalls of a try all run and it performed no different
  4. prime example of why the validation rule shouldn't have gone
  5. effort. haha. try all cranks, pedals, bars and stem. echo wheels, freewheel, headset, forks front vee rear maggie. could go into more specifics but think you can see it all in the pics anyway
  6. I'd just be cautious about running anything too beefy, killed a couple of profiles due to it. I'd also never advise using a split link.
  7. You'll be after the gusset tank by the sounds of it, although it's almost too big. If you can track down a khe collapse you really can't go wrong, except if you're running a rear freehub it tends to kill them a bit. A 1/8th KMC Kool is the safest bet all round.
  8. I miss the volume of posts on here. When it was a struggle to actually keep up with what was going on. When people didn't get chance to argue because it was more fast paced and when things actually held a reasonable value. AMEN
  9. Oompa Loompa Had to be said, good on him though.
  10. this heat is unbareable. How do these foreign boys do it?!

  11. So many crazy riders in the East, it's like you're all born on 2 wheels. Nice vid, decent tune and edit too.
  12. That or a kink in the beading yeah
  13. Yes I don't see how it wouldn't assist it. If you remove your tyre you will be able to see a dodgy bit of beading most likely.
  14. You can still get them off with a tyre lever. I'd superglue it, if the problem goes away i'd go for a new tyre.
  15. The odds are it's the beading on the tyre. I've had numerous creepys do it, and try alls. Sounds mad but superglue all the way around the gap side of the beading holds it surprisingly well.
  16. I just got a ti bb for mine, made a big difference. Also recommend some try all cranks. Deffo change the pedals too. Get a try all sticky light on the rear, slick it. Monty lightweight tubes made a massive difference to mine too. The drivetrain and wheels is the easiest place to lose grams.
  17. Little tip I've always gone for is to turn the bb the incorrect way, until it clicks, this means the thread has lined up, then proceed putting it in. If it's not straight and it's stiff after only 1 turn then you're stripping the frame dude.
  18. Yeah it's worth buying a shock pump, a cheapy will do the job it's fairly easy to set up
  19. absolutely stunning riding
  20. Yeah would look a lot better. And the blue rim tape to black too.
  21. I like it but think it would benefit from getting rid of the other colours.
  22. get a lid. much better on the wasp
  23. Mark you ledge, got it off. Best method.
