  1. You told me you have an Onza Ice and a Zoo Python?
  2. Nope sorry, I got pics of me cutting the holes in my front rim bigger though? They're in my Simtra topic, there's a link in my sig. Basically the rim should look something like this: | O | | O | | O | In the inner wall, you want to join the edges of all of the holes in two lines that run round the rim. (I actually scribed them on). This will cut the inner wall out in sections, then you can just tidy it up with a grinding disc. Can I just check, what rim do you have? Some rims have several box sections, I'm talking about an Atomz, which has two little tubes in the corners and you need to leave them in, as if you remove them apparantly it make it a lot weaker. I think Ben Slinger did one and removed the tubes in the corners, didn't last long haha.
  3. Last night actually, wench. I was talking about Bebo and TF friend requests. Deleted Bebo now actually, got sick of them and I never went on it.
  4. Nah I stripped the anodising off with Caustic Soda, but yeh i cut the inner wall out. Take an angle grinder with a cutting disc, chop between the holes in the inner wall, (so you get pieces out of it as big as you can get them), then get a grinding disc and tidy it up!
  5. Haha, I get that with a lot of people, although I tend to meet everyone eventually because the best ridings up here. Anyone else wondering why they've been added by Sam Turner, that's my name believe it or not. So many people don't realise who I am until I tell them!
  6. I tend to leave them pending or ignore them, I get a lot of young teenagers adding me asking me for advice on how to mend things. Has this possibly been sparked by my pending friend request for you?
  7. If you replace the seals, polish the pistons aswell.

    Foamy

    Did you even read the topic? He wants to remove his grips so he can replace his brake lever, not replace the grips with shit ones.

    Foamy

    That's how i do it, works every time. Stand the bike upright, stick your knee on the side of the headtube, and use the ends of your fingers on each hand to pull the grip off from the inner edge, as you pull it expands the grip and it slides off no trouble at all.
  10. Is there any way of me watching this fight? I don't have digikal tellies.
  11. I've no idea what you mean, but you definately didn't have to spend £70. If the lever was leaking, you replace the lever at £40 a go, and if either of the slaves were leaking you replace the slave at £16 a go. The rest is just hoses and connectors which are dirt cheap.
  12. You havn't missed much to be honest mate, why do you think everyone's jumped on this with such vigour...
  13. He just rang me, apprantly he's at work and the guy hasn't been seen since, but I got the impression he was feeling uneasy. He says he wants a small, open casket ceremony and we're all invited. Good luck mate.
  14. Jarrod: The Black Attack Too far? (He did attack a black guy though, for a daft reason).
  15. Any takers for the, "Who can come up with the best channel 4 documentary title" competition?
  16. You shouldn't use grease really as it allows the cups to shift slightly in the frame, making it much more likely to flare. Tarty's warrenty is voided if you use grease in there. I have a press so I'd recommend one of those.

    French Cars

    My Dad has driven both, he always said he prefferred the 1.6, it didn't torque steer as much, the steering was lighter and you could give it more stick through the corners.
  18. That's the age thing not the height thing that's the problem there though Ed. Nah I jokes, I can't ride for shit and I've got no excuse.
  19. Too long? If anything that will be too short! I went stock when I was about 5'10", and went straight onto an 1100 wb stock that I kept for nearly a year. I like long bikes though
  20. This is not bragging, they have been known to make over 4:
  21. 1050 wheelbase at least and 365 stays at the most, and my answer would be yes!
  22. It is an immense OS, it just ticks all the boxes, has no bugs, and never fails. Definate thumbs up, and most tests I've read up on say it's faster than XP for loading times and file transfers. If you're a gamer though, XP 64 bit edges it out slightly, but XP 64bit is very buggy from what I understand. Basically Windows 7 is so good I've been thinking of putting the 32bit version on my Netbook. I can get it free through uni, it's faster loading than XP and a lot of people have done it, so finding drivers isn't impossible. There are only a couple of things I don't like about it. The network connections thing is over-complicated, I liked the simplistic one in XP. The rest is amazing though, the sounds for instance are all really good, I didn't realise how annoying the ones in XP are. It loads faster. File transfers are stupidly fast, especially between internal hard drives. In short, it's so good that it's worth buying! I can get it through uni for free though, which is nice of them but if I couldn't, I'd buy it.
