  1. That would be me, not been riding much lately but would be up for a ride at some point Hey, think i saw you in courteney park yesterday? i was lurking about on a lime green mtb. Would be up for a ride down there at some point if i dig the trials bike out the shed
  2. I have an NS core, which is the same geometry as the surge frame, and love it! I ride my local bmx track alot, aswell as the skatepark and have no trouble, then i swap the holy rollers for some gnarlier tires and hit the downhill I honestly cant reccomend this frame enough, although my build is mega heavy, the geometry of a frame makes the front really light and it manuals like a charm. Im sure you could get a fairly light bike built around the surge frame though, and im pretty sure the surge is lighter than the core in the first place
  3. Hey, not massively clued up on RAM, but ive got a few 1Gb sticks kicking around that say DDR. I assume thats the same as DDR1? If its any use you can have it for postage and a can of monster
  4. I had the same problem, it was a worn sprocket causing it, so i recommend you replace yours. :/
  5. Isnt the polystyrene in petrol how they make napalm?
  6. Any one on here got any experience working with carbon fabric ? What did you make and how did it go ?
  7. Some awesome pictures there, that drop from the railing looked f**king scary, hats of man!
  8. Have a browse through here, theres usaully some good deals : http://www1.euro.dell.com/uk/en/dfo/df.aspx?refid=df&s=dfo
  9. Cheers man, ile get one ordered
  10. I loosened it quite abit and it still did it, im wondering if its because its a new chain on a worn sprocket if it doesn't stop soon a new sprocket may have to be the next step.
  11. Hi, ive just given my bike a thorough scrub, and replaced my chain with the same again, whenever I pedal it makes a weird clicky noise, is this just the chain settling in as I don't remeber it doing this when i fitted my old one I'm 99% sure it is the chain that's making the noise.
  12. Can i just point out that everyone who is suggesting just drinking lucozade instead: it is no different to a monster in terms of ingrededients.
  13. There a live webcast of the slopestyle starting in 10 minutes, thought some of you may be interested http://www.crankworx.com/webcast/
  14. You can use that one, i dont think they have a specific one for bike trials.
  15. great link, identifiying weak points was on my to-do list, cheers gotta be honest i wasnt expecting much when i started the topic, so thanks for the pleasant suprise everyone
  16. In terms of experience im goin in blind, im not too fussed about it looking pretty, its reasuring to hear that about strength though! im thinking about having an aluminium headtube and bb shell with stumps that extend slightly into the tubing to stop them twisting then just wrapping the carbon around them to create the real join. As for brakes im thinkin aluminium dropouts with a disc mount machined from the same piece as the left dropout, then join it the same way as the headtube and BB. I know my description is awful but do your think this is a plausible way of doing it ? lol, both beat me to it.
  17. Hi, basically I fancy attempting to manufacture a carbon fiber mod frame, as its the least boring thing i could think of making for my A2 product design project and it could potential get me good marks. I've got quite a few ideas knocking around, just wondering if anyone had any good suggestions / usefull opinions / experience with carbon fiber ? ( please dont just winge about how it will fail is this doesnt help make it any better)
  18. if you want a dell factory second/ refurb/ cancelled order, then get it direct from dell: http://www1.euro.dell.com/content/default.aspx?c=uk&l=en&s=dfo& i got mine for about half the retail, and have been very happy with it. i recommend you keep your eyes on it for a few weeks till you see the right one at the right price, as they seem to vary massively.
  19. I find having the front brake on has a positive effect on balance, i guess its to do with the centrifugal force ?
  20. Can i ask what course this was for ? im in this process of deciding what to make for A2 product design, and if this is the standard expected then i really need to up my game!
  21. You should be able to knock them out by hitting the axle on the opposite side, so you would probably need to clamp it. I picked up some skf 6000RS bearings on ebay for a very good price,its worth a look

    Demonoid

    Basically theres just less crap on demonoid, the invitation thing is similar to the validation on TF in that it helps prevents retards posting a bunch of rubbish.
