Jay-Inspired

posted a picture of my jimny up here some months back its been through heeps of changes suspension set ups wheels tyres stickers taken off all sorts of bits and pieces still got more lined up for it 32" tyres 4 inch suspension lift 3 inch body lift iv had the front chassis legs extended and a winch plate welded on on so i can hide the winch behind the stock plastic bumper

im doing a carpentry apprenticship £180 a week not bad, with a big maintenance firm mind you, a few of my college mates are getting from £80 a week up to £180 so it varys on where you work i think. as for engineering another friend of mine struck lucky and got one on the railways he does one day a week college and 4 days at work and brings home £250 a week he's only 17. the bigger the employer the better. and make sure you get a contract of employment cos they can screw you for working hours and wages without one.

i can get my 24" in the back with ease but i usaly just stick it on the roof on the bike rack and get a mod in the back that things like the tardis tiny outside huge inside i'll get some pics of it when its loaded with bikes

got myself a jimny a few weeks ago still a work in progress currently got 2" spring spacers and awaiting 195/80 kingpin tyres and safari snorkle cant afford to go all out with suspension lifts and body lifts YET! when im paying £2350 a year insurance on it but i will get there slowly its got alot to live up to seeing as my old sj was abit of a monster so yeah here's a pic of it, its very clean atm too clean lol cant wait to take it out for a proper run

the bike is exactly the same now as it is there only it has a maggy on the back now and a brand new pro 2 same colour just brand new and unused

same person sellling dude just thought i would wager some interest here

just wanted to get a general opinion on what people thought of my bike spec is as follows frame: inspired fourplay white Forks: Echo sprayed white handle bars: easton ea50 sprayed white stem: hope 90mm cranks: middleburn pedals: dmr v12 front wheel : ryno lite on hope xc blue rear wheel: ryno lite on hope pro 2 blue tyres: moto digger rt rear brake : avid ultimate, echo booster front brake : avid bb7 , xt lever

i would die if i could get my insurance even close to £1200 try £2357 for a 1.3 suzuki garaged and alarm and imobiliser my first car and so on but give me a break thats seriuosly damaging insurance

Jay pull a sicky and come wednesday You no u want to

WEDNESDAY ??? Im down for that along with a few other riders from down my way This could be a fairly big ride ?

me and a few boys will be riding ramsgate throughout the week if you wanna come down here ?

DONE!! good luck man

wheeeyyyyy keep them coming i need the biggest brake arms people

yeah iv been looking at them but cant find sizes thats why iv asked for people on here to help me out by measuring theirs i just need one measurment the make and the model come on people

ultimates are too short iv already tryed them out by looking around im guessing shimano v-brakes even though everyone slates them there pretty long IMO the SD5 i have atm holds just aswell as my friends ultimates when set up nice which is 99% of the time i just need some long brake arms even if there sh*t i can make them work well

its not the width of the tire its rubbing on its the height of the tire its rubbing on the actual cable as it runs over the top of the tire to the other brake arm i dont have 4 bolt adapters its straight up vbrake mounts on my frame ALL I WANT IS FOR SOME BRAKE ARM SIZES !!!

the wheel is fine the chain is fine if i shorten the chain the wheel comes futher forward then the tire rubs on the brake cable hence me needing longer brake arms for clearence over the tire

right heres the deal i have a v-brake echo lite 06 and im running an avid SD5 on the rear it also rubs on the tire if the wheel is not set right and it sits almost out of the dropouts on the frame so im looking for a rear v-brake with long arms so if u could all measure ur v-brakes for me i would like the make model and size please people wether it be avid or shimano im simply looking for the longest brake arms avaliable so get measuring didnt think this worth of its own topic in trials chat so stuck it in here check the pic for were i want measured if unsure

friday afternoon im up for that just built up my new echo wont be able to ride it hard as it needs snail cams to keep the wheel in but ill still show my face

The actual frame rode realy nice it was pretty long yet flicky, fairly light and easy to chuck about and it came with vee brake mounts i wouldnt advise buying the full build, whole bunch of wank parts the forks cracked within 3 weeks striped the pedal thread in the cranks cracked the stem bent the bars on landing. it came with tektro brakes which were replaced striaght away although the wheels wernt bad alex DX32 rims built on quando hubs(there pretty sweet if you look after them) and the frame snapped cracked in 6 months got it pro welded and it lasted another 8 months under some pretty harsh riding im not the smoothest thing on two wheels but i get the job done I realy would like another 20"ashton so if anyone knows anyone who has one tell them to get in contact with me.

thanks for the comments guys

sorry for out doing you on the injury dude but to be honest yours probs hurt more i didnt realy feel mine was in shock i just sat on the curb holding my arm and burst out larfing weird i know lol and trust me i know what a hockey stick can do to people i broke a guys shin playing at school lol im sure it was painfull

Seriously i have no fears about doing huge drop gaps and what not but i have this annoying little piece of me that hates curbs now lol. i'll try get some pictures up of the scar i have it runs pretty much the full lengh of my arm great conversation starter with the ladies though I also have no funny bone now as it was taken off to fit the metal plate you can see it and feel it through the skin too its nasty. LET THIS BE A WARNING TO ALL OF YOU THAT LIKE TO PLAY ON CURBS

As far as riding injurys go i have had my fair share Amongest countless broken fingers and toes last year i broke my elbow in half when my back brake snapped riding off a curb. The specialists at the hospital siad i must have hit it at 60mph+. Ended up having 6 hours of surgery a metal plate and 6 screw in my arm loads of staples to hold the skin together and a nasty scar it healed and i was back on my bike within 2 months but my arm has never been able to go straight since. 5 months after that misshap i failed a tap up to an anchor outside a local museum and jumped back and my foot folded inside my leg my fibula touched the floor it broke my fibula and my lateral malleolus unfortunatly the pictures of my ankle break are on my laptop but i have the xrays from my arm and some of the staples. ENJOY!!
