  1. thanks flas12345 but i do not want to bleed with water, i want to stay with what's in it right now. Is there a similar method i could use but to bleed with magura fluid not water?
  2. hey all, i noticed that that my front magura was feeling very squishy and even with my TPA all the way out it still pulls into my bar. I noticed also that it was leaking at the cross over and i have now tightened this up and it seems to have stopped. Now my brake needs bleeding, my question is do i have to have a magura bleed kit or can i make something to do it myself? Thanks Jonny
  3. they do look amazing but we'll have to wait and see until some rich dude buys some to tell us all what they are like n whether they are worth their money!!
  4. that's awesome, gonna be using that a lot at college to get on you tube etc
  5. does anybody know how they will perform in the wet?

  7. it should do but here's the website address anyway its www.mbk-cycles.com
  8. yeah, really want one now but my frames fine at the moment and as I say, if it ain't broke don't fix it unless it looks cool which in this case applies
  9. didn't know if anybody has seen it yet, but just been on MBK's website and there is a 20" mod frame they are bringing out looks real nice. Just thought i'd say. MBK
  10. frame: mbk t1000 forks: echo urban rims: try-all flouro yellows tyres: try-all cranks: czar (black) BB: new echo external hubs: Chris King brakes: hope mono trials '07 200mm (front + rear) headset: Chris king bars: try-all stem: try-all that would be killer!!!
  11. f*ckin hell mate, i think you should ring the police because they might be able to catch them and as you know who they are there's a better chance of getting them.
  12. i started on a raleigh max 21 ef bright yellow full sus not ideal lol bent my biggest chainring soo many times then decided i needed a proper bike so bought a t-rex off ebay best thing i ever did
  13. do you reckon a different lever would stop this?? Or is it just something i'd better get used to?
  14. hey, i've been riding a proper trials bike for about a month and a half now and veryting is progressing well. However, i run front and rear maggie's and since i have been riding it seems my index fingers have developed callus's and every so often a blister, at just the point where my finger pulls on the lever. Also, on my left index finger it seems i have sprained it or something but its very painful to pull on my rear brake and even to bend it. I was wondering what would cause this to happen? Or whether a replacement lever (e.g) Gu etc. would stop this from happening. all opinions welcome
  15. hey all, i've just seen the new things from echo on tarty's site! them brakes looks awesome especially as they are CNC'd so they should be light and strong just depends on how mych they are going to be. What is everyones opion on the new parts good or bad . just noticed already been done, sorry guys my bad
  16. nice vid mate, loved the roof top gap the pedestrians were like ha ha
  17. sorry. bit off topic but that bike looks niiiiice!!
  18. sounds like a great idea as things that other people don't have on their bike appeal to me as it would make my bike unique. I think if you go about it the right way you could have a very good idea on your hands here, just make sure no one else steals it!! only kidding. hope it all goes to plan
  19. very nice, you're flippin' good at side hopping!! Loving the Pitbull as well is it long or short? and is it the mod frame? Whatever it is it suits your style!
  20. absolutely amazing! he is one amazing rider. shame he rides mod though
  21. make it as long as you want, if its a good video i can watch for hours but if it's not then i get bored easily. Do what you think is best. Trial and error
  22. cheers, i will have to try that but i don't get payed til 21st so will it be okay to ride on till i get my pay check through?
  23. hey eveyone, I was just out riding and i was on my back wheel and just as i did a pedal stroke something went *CRACK* very loudly . I think this might've been my rear hub skipping (deore) and it has happened before but this time, when i spin my cranks backwards they make a wierd grating/grinding noise. What would cause this? Would it be my rear hub or would it be my bottom bracket because that is loose as well. thanks help appreciated
