  1. so it it the bracket thats bust? if so your need a new one anyway at some point. how about drilling to 6mm holes near to bar part of brake and put a couple of cable ties through them to act like a new bracket?
  2. hey i would but without them have no bike, the other ones i have are a diffrent angle taper so when i try putting the non drive side on they dont line up properly, i cant put the drive side on to match my decent non drive side one because it is not a front free wheel compatable arm.
  3. i started riding again recently im 28 now, and after prating about on a few peoples bikes aound my way i decided i still prefered my megamo so have stuck to that and just banged some updated brakes on it. your in a diffrent situation t me though as you havent got your old bike so cant help you, was just wanting to say hello!
  4. ive already got the echos but was not sure which ones were best
  5. so having cross threaded my left crank arm today i need some new cranks, out of the cranks which cost abou £50 which ones are best value for money, i need a square taper if thats any help
  6. are these newer pads much better than the standard maguras then,having ot ridden in 6-7 years im a tad out of touch
  7. hi, i have a sort of simlar question/problem. having had a drunken mess about on someones bike i have re discoverd trials after a 6-7 year break and was looking for some genral help on parts and bikes etc as things have changed so much in that time so feel sort of out of touch
  8. dropping off a wall about 4-5ft up was balanced on the edge and went to basically kick off and my crank arm came off resulting in a nose dive and my bars somehow went in to my side and broke a few ribs
  9. i prefer Natural just dont know of any around Gloucester way since moving here so having to stick with a bit of street for the mean time
  10. cheers for that, i was after a head scratching moment trying to remember the name of them
  11. here is a picture to help with my poor description, taken from the for sale forum.
  12. does anyone know if you can still get those V shape splits for maguras they made your brakes bite more evenly apparenty.
  13. i have a monty X-hydra resuced from my mums house to get riding again, im after a new frame and forks to start building a new bike up on though as its about 8-9 years old now
  14. i taught myself back wheel control from doing wheelies although that dosent really help as many bikes no longer have saddles. the endo technique also seems to ring a bell and sounds a good idea
  15. i had these on my cannondale for ages and never had any pronlems with them
  16. how much longer? just im trying to work out what size bike to go for at the moment and having liked the way they have rode in the past im won dering if il get on with a newer style one
  17. always found depends what your riding style is like , would like to have a go on a 24" though as im hoping it would feel somewhere in between a 20" and a 26" would would suit me i feel
  18. looking again it looks more like the bottom bracket has moved back making the frame look longer than it actully is. do they ride better?
  19. not haven ridden a mod for about 6 years and having stopped riding for about 4 of those have been riding stock for before i had to stop riding i was wondering how mods have changed since then as they seem to look longer?
  20. havent 26/20 bikes been tried before and never took off?
  21. thers a fair few thing in there i want but cannot do anything about until im approved our whatever its called.
  22. how do chaps, just moved to Gloucester and have got myself riding again. im basically wanting to know if there is any natural stuff to ride around here, well stuff to ride in genral.
