Firefox all the way, I have about 15 plugins I use all the time.

I haven't had the manual dream, but I've had ones where I wheelie one of my motorbikes everywhere?

Ryan Trickett had one Andrew, was a really lovely bike to ride, was easily the nicest 60mm+ bb rise bike I've ever ridden. It cracked though, then again when it had been welded. Amazing frames but too weak around the bash mount on the downtube. The disk mounts were tripe by the way, they snapped contantly.

Totally agree, it was entertaining but nothing special. The kinda thing you download and watch once, then don't watch again unless it's on telly in a couple of years time.

It's true this, it's happened to my mates haha.

Ahhh come on dude, that was asking for it. That's what I've always found with trials, every ride I wanted a different bike, until I ended up with three and decided actually, I don't want to ride any of them haha.

Errmmm, it's a mod, so I wouldn't be so sure mate...

It's a 2005 PR, pretty certain of it.

Sounds like it's the cranks to me, not the freewheel, although are you running an ACS claw? I'd change the cranks and freewheel sharpish.

Just add it chubbs.

That. EDIT: Add it Ad or I ain't voting.

I would say it definately isn't that. CPU's have a temperature limit, as soon as it hits the limit the computer shuts off.

Well I'm guessing it isn't hardware, because normally it will simply BSOD and reboot to try and prevent damage to the other components. If it was me I'd just format it now, I've always found when things like this go wrong, you can almost never save it.

That will have no effect on it crashing all the time, it crashes because there's something wrong with the OS, or a piece of hardware is dieing/damaged.

Wipe it, start again.

Well personally I'd recommend shortening the chain and checking the chain line first of all, as they need doing anyway, if that doesn't sort it I'd take it off and send it back to tarty. The general concensus is that those freewheels are the dogs bollocks, you could just have a funny one. Some people say freewheels need to bed in, I disagree. There's nothing rubber of anything that forms itself in there, it's all hardened steel, so you can be sure that it might wear in over time, but if it's skipping from new and there's no grease in there anyway, just oil, then there's something wrong with it.

Looks like you need to remove at least 3-4 links from that chain mate, I'm not surprised it's skipping. If the freewheel skips it makes a big bang and the cranks jump fowards, if it's the chain then it just kinda clicks and crunches and sounds shitty. I reckon it's just your chainline myself.

He invented that too.

Just put 6 washers underneath the rotor, then one on the end of the axle. Respoking the wheel incorrectly sounds a bit insane to me.... And as for 4 cross, I don't know why no-one really uses it. it adds a few grams in extra spoke weight but it's much stronger. Same for radially spokes front wheels, why? It barely saves anything and make the wheel far weaker.

They're only very slightly oversized, with an interferance fit like this a couple of thou makes a massive difference.

Those forks are the lightest stock forks I've ever used.... They're like 890g.

The whole bike is heavy really, I'd sell it and buy a lighter one myself!

Without pics we can't know. But generally speaking if a frame cracks, it's because that area gets strained a lot, so it will need welding.

Laura? Seriously, that's the best you could do?

Whats that brav? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180469894486&autorefresh=true Time to get, erm, Go-ing...
