  1. Thanks guys! It came off eventually with some serious pulling and twisting. Guess it hasn't been serviced for a while so maybe it was just seized slightly. All good now though
  2. I can see this being like a certain London ride, except with me having to drive for hours! lol I'll ask the guys i'm riding with here, then see how hungover I am sunday morning
  3. If its a racing ralph it will pinch flat the next time you sit down lol
  4. Tempting, Supposed to be riding Milton Keynes on sunday, but i've always wanted to ride Bristol hmmmm
  5. I'm running a17t cog as my trialsy gear with a 20t chain ring, what do you guys recomend for a streety/skate park gear?
  6. Right then, little help needed guys. I'm trying to take apart my king hub so that I can give it a bit of a service. For some reason I can't get the freewheel to come out? I've taken off the funbolts, taken off the bearing preload adjuster and pulled out the axle. The manual says that the freewheel should now pull out of the hub shell? I've done this before with no problems but i'm stumped! What have I missed?
  7. Can't wait for the full vid
  8. How about these? Linky I run trailpimp rims on my jump bike and they're bombproof! Only 150g heavier than the Rhynos too
  9. cheers matey, bring on the spinny fast rolling 24" fun! Oh yus! I saw some in urban camo but only in 36h My hubs are 32h. Could I get rhyno lites from any of the online bmx shops?
  10. Gonna be weird, going from a 48mm rim to a 29mm rim, the black ones are anodised aren't they? inc the braking surface? Oh and next question Tyres? Thinking Moto digger front and some sort of maxxis rear. I don't really ride rocks very much so mostly street, mostly in the rain lol
  11. I'm a bit out of touch with the world of bike parts, best choice for 24" rims? Sun Rhyno lites seem to be pretty good, I've noticed the BT ones too, mostly cause they're pink Oh and they have to be 32h
  12. Will and Matt are probs still a good hour away fron Swansea :-P
  13. Cheers mate! Next question, anyone know of a cheap car park nearby?
  14. Right then, whats the nearest station to this place? I'm gonna drive in so I need a landmark to whack in multimap.
  15. I tried to persuede my mum to get one of these, failed though! 1.8t in a Polo must be mental.
  16. Mines alright at the moment but it does like to spend some time on the axle stands T-F track day sounds awesome. We can have an 8v, 16v, 24v, VTEC head to head. Settle this once and for all!
  17. Haha love it, Nick you managed to abuse everyone in a single post! I happen to quite like my french crisp packet giggle machine. Any way enough spamming..... Errrrr I like Volkswagens
  18. Pffffffph 16 valves? Or 8 good ones
  19. Well done mate! Very well written too.
  20. This happened to me at the weekend. I saw two gourgous caddys at the trails. One pretty much standard with BBS alloys and one dropped on coilovers with I think some kind of Ronals. Looked lovely and would stop me trashing the Rallye with muddy downhill bikes. Can't be much to insure and being VW should run forever!
  21. The stretch of A55 between Colwyn bay and Chester is apparently the most over policed section of road in the Uk, theres some useful trivia for you.
  22. The air intake for my Polo (R reg 1.4 cl) was located behind the bumper on the drivers side, so its possible some water might have got in. Try taking off the pipe work and drying it out. From memory it has a resonator box in the system so maybe thats got a puddle in it? Oh and I don't think your car has a dizzy, pretty sure it has a coil pack because its fuel injected. I'm not a car mechanic mind...
  23. All I keep hearing about is that damn try, it wouldn't have mattered even with the 7 points you would have lost. Played well though, SA just played better! I went to Paris for this and the atmosphere was mostly immense, but it was however ruined by some complete dicks that only seem to emerge when England does well. I noticed it back in blighty during the semis too. Is there really any need to boo when the other team score or win a penalty?
  24. I came up with a genius idea for mine, I bought the car with some dodgy cut outs and some rather "blingin" 6x 9's. They just annoyed me being sat there so i mounted them underneath the shelf and stapled some t shirt fabric to the underneath of the shelf. Problemo solved, good sound and no horrendous spaceship shaped speakers!
