i bled both mine with water, if you do it right you dont get any problems, how can it be bad for the magura? if its done right it cant. -alot of people say it rusts the inside of the cylinders and levers etc. but if its bled properly it cant, because when its bled properly there would be no air in the system so no oxygen (except for the tiny bit that is in the water naturally) and you need air and moisture to produce rust so there would not be enough to rust anything. -people also say its bad for seals and the rubber parts, its really not, as the oil damages seals quicker than water if you've ever got brake fluid on your brake pads or tyres you will have seen why. -even more people say "water knackers them because its not a lubricant" well the it wasnt the brakefluid that lubricates any of the external moving parts and theres not alot moves internally that needs to be lubricated (theres nothing that moves fast enough to get so hot that it needs constant lubrication) if anything its probably better, it improves brake performance, the lever will feel firmer and if you split your hose instead of getting brake fluid all over and it wrecking your nicely painted frame you get a little bit of water. so do it right and she'll be mint.

id go for some gloves without all that plastic and padding on top, if i was going to wear gloves,(which i dont) but something like hebo or on&off (they make motrbike trials stuff, and its good quality not crappy stuff which look like ice hockey gloves

it doesnt matter anyway about not being able to sell in new members as it looks to me like your a member now. ???

Lol that sounds like aquestion from blindate. hehehe any way started with a low spec old shape t-rex, now ive got an adamant a1

sam you steamer ive got contacts

bit of a update the first two are still at ashby ville and ferriby BUT the other 3 are at a new venue am n ot sure of the name but it is somewhere near lindsey college in some woods

well i dont know whats going on with that then. lol the brake caliper is blue though, only that side

i havnt photoshopped the firts pic, but now you mention it it does look a little weird, probably something to do with the flash, ill ask henry hes the photographer. and nope your eyes arent decieving you that is billocks, i took it ages ago with my phone

bump

ive got one on the front (26" though but should be the same) its grippy as and you can run them stupidly flat withou gettin pinch flats

yeh a few pics from tonights ride on the adamant at upper school, all photos were taken by henry. the gap to the bench looks pretty small in the photos, but it actually wasn't here's some random pic of Sam and Billy being retards. thanks for looking. let us now what you think. heres a link to some more photos by henry from tonight here look

yeh their reliable you could probably stand a bike up inside but you can get laods of bikes in just by some random placement, insurance depends on age, capacity etc

purchase an envelope (you should be able to get a big enough one) and some stamps and send it to me. or go on tartybikes which ever you prefer

if you have washed it you might have washed any oil or grease out so now its less likely to skip but it wont be as smoooooth

the onza's are good fro beginners check out ebay theres always plenty on their

have you tried taking a full link out of the chain? or would this make it to short? half link chains can be bought from "alans"

looks mint mate maybe would look better with a black stem and just the other parts pink.

grinds work in the wet tar doesnt it makes your brake worse do it

about the gun laws and that in switzerland any body over a certain age (21 probably) can carry a gun and they have low gun crime rates probably lower then our country. its more to do with upbringing and culture i mean hip hop makes guns seem cool and any wannabes just do what they see and hear. R.I.P

i went from a koxx 1065 levelboss with like average bottom bracket hight, to an adamant a1 short with a higher bottom bracket, to me the adamant is easier to ride but if your struglling to get the front wheel up its probably more because the bike is to long rather than to high

i did mine my self i just got a drill bit that was wide enoguh to be worth doing but not so wide that it nearly touched the side walls, i just took the wheel of took all the stuff of it (like rim tape, obviously) and drilled it, i didnt clamp the wheel of any thing there made of a soft enough alloy to just push down, also use a centre punch before ytou drill it this makes the bit stay where you want it. the wheel i drilled out was some onza half fat i think (front 26") ive rode with it for ages and i havnt had to true it yet.

looks like your brake slipped or something . it looked like it could oif hurt pretty bad what have you done?

yeh that trial magazines good but i ride motobike trials aswell so... is biketrial the one that was like A5 and was called BTM as in bike trial magazine?

billy that wall at signhills is probably like 10 ft and you landed smooth enough of that

i quite like that aswell not sure bout the bash set up though
