  1. I wonder if anyone else on here does martial arts? Thought I'd start a topic, maybe we can get some discussion going, or track people's progress. On sunday is the grading for Karate, I started it at the end of february so I hope to grade to the next level, which I think is red belt.
  2. Feel free to bleed your brake with up to 100% antifreeze. It doesn't seem to corrode the internals. After all, a great deal of the hosing on a car that it runs through is plastic. Antifreeze, screenwash, mixed or concentrated, up to you. If you don't like the sound of neat concentrated screenwash or whatever you choose, you can mix it to 1:3, that's probably what it says on the bottle to use.
  3. This seems to be hit and miss, I've bled a lever in water and had it do this after a few months. I've also bled a lever and it's been fine for a year or two. Others have had the same lever for longer than that, running water with no issues.
  4. Fag. I want to know if it's a totally new spline or if it's been used somewhere else. It does look awfully like a middleburn spline.
  5. I saw knack all, except some berk parked a lorry in the staff car park right in the middle, close to my car so it was hard to get out. Disappointed.
  6. I hope I get to see northern lights on the way home from work.
  7. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/rim_brake_spares/magura_hose_clamping_blocks/c5p10026.html This, a vice and a hammer. Or you can make your own out of some wood using a drill and a saw.
  8. 10mm, to fit 10mm dropouts.
  9. That frame doesn't suit a seat. Also, a whole minute out of a 3 minute video for an intro?
  10. If ever there was a day you needed to wear a foil hat, today is it.
  11. I thought inner tubes for cars went obsolete yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeears ago?
  12. Adding to the 'things you convinced some kids about trials bikes', I convinced some kid that the TPA dial was used to set how far you pedal kick, and when you let go of the lever in a back hop that's what shot you forwards.
  13. Now's the time for them to pave the way for an external BB system in trials, whilst creating a screw thread compatible design, and giving the cranks more offset. Shame that'll never happen.
  14. If you have a metal lathe, you could make your own coilover type suspension unit Take apart an RC car one, reverse engineer that.
  15. You could buy some diiiiiiiiiiiirt cheap suspension forks from CRC and modify them? Spring system, mind.
  16. You were wearing a dodgy jumper in some of that.
  17. Dunno about you but my bmx brake was mentsl when I used inspired pads. Made a shitload of noise though.

    I ain't no fool, it has risers already! Luke, get some pics and we can talk about those.

    I just need to sort the chainline out and it'll go. A new set of pedals and a new brake lever would finish it off. I'll spray the forks black in summer. If anyone has a set of inspired high rise bars in black knocking around, I'll have them.
  20. My brother watches that show of his own free will.
  21. I think it depends on the personality type of the friends.
