    Rainy Day

    Sleep lots. And wank.
  2. Mum and sister were watching it last night, and Wogans comments are just brilliant, the way it sounds like he utterly loathes eurovision is awesome Made me lol at regular intervals Matt
  3. Both frames do ride very nicely, but personally i would reccomend the control. I doubt anyone has a bad word to say about the way they ride Matt
  4. Exactly! He's reeally good at both sides of it And thank you :$
  5. To be fair, have you ever tried stencils? I have, and the amount of effort you need to put in to get that much detail is huge. Ever seen any of his older/ more mental stuff? Like one in America, half burying a proper red phone box in the middle of a road, in broad daylight. That is just epic. Even though the press have singled him out as the wonderboy of uk graff, he is still a very, very talented, witty street artist. Matt

    Echo Sprockets

    Did Have a hen on it, and about a milimetre or two of the thread wasn't on the crank, so it still has 10mm on it. Also, after use, how did you get yours off? Matt

    My trusty tensiles
  9. Hey guys, Just thought i'd see if anyone else has had any problems with the echo screw on 18T sprockets? I put mine on, got bike sorted for what would have been this weekends London ride, all seemed fine. Went for a little ride to bed in the disc, make sure everything was working well, and it felt as though something in my drive train was slipping when i turned the cranks under a bit of power. First thought was that my hub was skipping/ not engaging properly, but as i looked into it, with a bit of power i could turn the cranks without the sprocket moving. Took it off the bike, thought it had stripped the thread off the crank, but when i got the sprocket off the threads were damaged, but nothing major enough to make this happen. I then measured up the thread on the sprocket against my old try-all freewheel, and the innner diameter is over 1mm wider than that of the try-all, so the cranks were turning inside those threads. Busted out my dads engineering book from the loft, measured things, checked the tolerances, and according to those, it was a really sub-standard component. Basically seeing if anyone else has had any issues with them, or if i've just got a dodgy one. Matt
  10. Personally, i'd reccommend some Tensile urban legends I can't fault mine. Look good, stiff, strong, light. Matt
  11. If you have the money/ can find it in good cond. second hand, CK!!
  12. Looks good, but what about using bike pics thread?
  13. Couldn't have put it better myself. As for the argument.. Leave it! You don't need to start insulting them for the fact that their family are pretty well off. Who cares if they have nice bikes? If they/their parents want to go splashing out on new parts/ bikes all the time, let them! Surely if you had the money you'd do the same? I know i would. Matt

    Why Inches?

    That's, like, 7ft? I normally measure where it comes up on my body/ bike, then if i can really be arsed, measure how high that is when i get back. Our measurements are just "special".
  15. Get the rex! So much nicer looking, and to ride.
  16. If it's coming from under the reservoir cap, my first guess would be that the diaphram has gone. Happened to my first one! Easy fix, like £2 from tarty, just take the cap off, remove old diaphram, put in new one, put cap back on, bleed Matt
  17. Just one letter from the truth. EDIT:
  18. I used to dabble in the land of street art. Used to paint all of the place, but just didn't fancy the risks after the Ozone/Wants incident I'll send you some of my blackbook stuff next time you're on msn Matt
  19. Fat people are harder to kidnap.
