  1. Get a pair of pliers and just undo the TPA, when the thread strips they kind of jam up.
  2. Read the feedback, it's virtually all trials or motocross stuff. I'd say thats him.

    My Brute Thread

    I don't know how or why, but indeed I am. I plan on overthrowing you at some point though. You've got loads of pupils! Like Ad Griffin and I spotted Sam Ward before. I get "penil infection", "largebreasts69" and my newest one, "blingykingy". This guy is sick, watch some of the fights he's been in during this tournament thingy! I lost the first fight. http://godlyholow.mybrute.com/cellule

    Yes, absolutely. http://veryviolentmuel.mybrute.com/ http://veryviolentmuel.mybrute.com/ http://veryviolentmuel.mybrute.com/ http://veryviolentmuel.mybrute.com/
  5. God I hated that, I turned it off half way through, how Emo can you get about riding a bike!
  6. How did you work out it was harder to snap the hose with water than with oil? It'd make no difference at all. If anything it would be harder to snap with oil in because it's slightly thicker, so it would be slightly harder to flex the pipe. Ever pulled the brake when it's empty and theres only air in there? It's fairly light I seem to remember... Oil feels less responsive and heavier to pull than water because its a thicker, more viscous fluid. I use a syringe and I never get air in there, it's all about the technique you use. Bleed from the bottom and have the run off pipe in a tub of the fluid, so when you remove the syringe from the slave it keeps sucking fluid in instead of air as it runs down through the brake. Makes a mess, but it stops it sucking air in.
  7. I've never had a problem with it, I split one crossover because I stood on it. I don't like braided hoses, they make the brake lever heavier to pull in my experience.

    Glueing Pads In

    Shotblasting the backings and superglue worked, I spent ages with a set of needle files filing the old superglue off aswell, it appears to be rate now! Cheers for the help guys.
  9. I got scared when I read the title, then when I realised I did tut-and-eyes-roll combo.
  10. Nah, the tensiles are still pretty wide. I reckon with Monty TI cranks and no bashring you might just manage it, they screw on so far that the removal tabs hit the ISIS splines when I ran mine with a Tensile.
  11. I can't even backhop with my right foot foward. I just automatically turn the cranks backwards instead of fowards! Left foot pushes down, right foot lifts up haha.
  12. To be fair though, you probably destroy more parts than anyone else in the trials world. How do you go through try-All rims that quick? Mine have all been mega strong.
  13. I had an idea last night, how about using a metal cutting disc? You can get ones that are like 3mm thick. Add some stainless steel brake pads and you've got sparks!
  14. Whoever said that good trials riders can't be huge? He's got to be over 200lbs surely? How does a Koxx hold him up! He goes so big when he rides aswell, he must snap one every week.
  15. She's fake aswell, the entire picture was drawn by a small child with a crayon.
  16. That noise is not nice! Sounds like it's got oil on there. Tis interesting though, seemed to hold pretty well when you were going up that pallet.
  17. Yes, do both sides clockwise, that way you get the grooves facing one way on on side and the other on the other side, so the pads hold better.
  18. Looks a little wierd Ads! Weight? How well does it work? They've been using them in Moto GP for a while, I don't know the advantages they have over steel though. It needs some cut-outs though, get it even lighter.
  19. RSQ? Seriously Dave, why do you make new topics instead of just using the RSQ thread?
  20. Broken Capslock? Joe was sponsered by cleanbikes, so he rode what he got given. I think it was a TI anyway. If you want a strong bike, get something Deng.
  21. Ad, just spotted your down on tarty as having the Try-All H Non-disc rear hub. I'd say Trialtech Jonny, looks like it's got a decent width gap between the flanges so the wheelbuild should be fairly stiff aswell.
  22. I hear that all the time, I've never understood it! Why wait until your chain breaks until you replace it? Or wait for your grips to fall off before you replace them? Or your wheel bearings to shatter before you clean and regrease them? With brake seals I'd leave it until the seals start weeping, then when you strip it, polish the pistons up aswell, this will make the seals last longer and will take off any corrosion from where the pads has sat, they can get water under there and it slow corrodes the piston.
  23. Thats some serious twatage! Anything over a year is ages on a koxx frame anyway mate, you had a good run. (Thats assuming it's an 06 or earlier, which I think is right?)
  24. TK Maxx, I rarely shop anywhere else now, the one in Stockport generally has a pretty good choice, unlike the one in Manc, that had about 4 times as much stuff, and it was all shite.
  25. That works perfect until your slave/lever piston starts to stick.
