  1. Go to London so I can come harass you now I'm 24"ed up, although if you go up Leeds way I could train up from Essex and provide some crashing space at my uni house.
  2. I agree with Mark, awesome combo and the Trialtech high rise bars are the comfiest I've ever used.
  3. Are the trophies bird feeders or something?
  4. Hope Mono Trial all the way, feels infinitely better than BB7's and is more powerful too.
  5. You can borrow my old bars and stem if needed.
  6. www.parcel2go.co.uk is the cheapest I can normally find, stick your requirements in there.
  7. Where on earth are you getting all these terms for stuff from?
  8. Member number 16 After all the various server crashes of course.
  9. Were you too ashamed to put up photo's with the shit old tyres?
  10. Limp Bizkit? really? Do all TGS riders have this same awful taste in music? That 180 thing on the post was cool.
  11. Looks fantastic, really good choice on the colour.
  12. I've never built a 1x wheel or built any type of wheel in ages, that was just my theory to why it looks odd anyway, if it works, it works.
  13. Grips are a hugely personal preference, loads of people will say foam, but I never really got on with it, some people prefer massive huge grips which I also hate, I myself prefer thin ribbed grips, so they are thin but still smooshy, but I bet loads of people won't. Some people like flanges, some don't etc etc, just go have a feel of some and see what you like. I'm using these for what it's worth, and they are bloody lovely. https://www.customriders.com/prodshow.asp?prodid=11460&cat=0&parent=0&sidehop=3
  14. Failing to see where people have thought it's more than 1x, however it looks like you've put in the spokes the wrong way round, so the spokes that go over should be facing out of the hub, and the ones that go under should be facing in the hub, if that makes any sense, how they are laced at the hub. Hence they all look super bent.
  15. There's a very interesting blog by some guy that got proper permission to ride his motorbike around Chernobyl. He carries a Geiger counter or whatever around at all times to stay safe and he says the levels can go from safe to deadly within a matter of feet. And he says that the roads and concrete is safe, however the grassy areas are still highly dangerous, so even when riding on the road, he makes an effort to stay away from the grass at the side of the road. It's that that makes me skeptical about the opening section of the video with the cranes and such, although like you said, it could be that they are on the very edge of the closed zone which is presumably far safer than the centre of Chernobyl itself.
  16. They cost $90 and you were expecting Reynolds steel?
  17. Even managed to use deodorant to get residue off my Marino.
  18. Wouldn't count the Zoot, although it looked like a trials frame it has streety geo.
  19. Mark's lying, get a Marino.
  20. Back then? It only happened in 1986.
  21. Added all the common spots of Leeds, I'll do Colchester when I'm bored. This could be a fantastic resource if everyone gets into it, street view has made everything brilliant.
