Did you get a Top Gear cake at some point by any chance?
I got a load of them stickers on mine

Wow! I haven't seen one of those in a while! Brings back some memories haha!

Isn't that a Rockman?

Thats a freakin' awesome idea!

Light. Strong. Cheap.
Choose 2.
That's how
Thats actually genius, never thought of it like that..

I've done 16 miles round a resovior on a Base t19 with 22-18 gearing, was a challenge I must admit, I've ridden around a bike track called Bedgebury a number of times if anyone on here knows of it, I think it was around 15 odd miles, It's good fun, and if your with mates its great, you forget how far you actually ride and you wind up racking up the miles before you know it!

I've got an onza ice 2, and to be honest I dont think I'll ever get another frame, It's solid, yet light and the geo is bang on for me, they've never been bad in my eyes, they've developed in the same time frame as I have in terms of riding, so I suppose they've always been suited to my level of riding throughout

I'm no professional on the weight of stuff but I'd say there's not too much of a difference, obviously you've got to take into account all the cladder on low budget frames (massive bashguard mounts, lack of cnc etc.) so the higher budget frames will have a weight gap, it's partially a selling point these days, but I wouldn't worry about the weight for now, if your running onza stock parts on it, the frame should be the least of your worries!

Wow, that really is mint! Did the previous owner even have it out the box?
Tidy build mate! Love them frames too!
-
I am a little bias but Inspired easily have every other company beaten when it comes to quality.
Very true, I've only ever seen one of they're frames cracked, and that was one of the first versions of the fourplay!

I remember when we were campaigning for a skate/trials park, you've just got to stick with it and you'll get to your goal
all the best with the presentation! -
Right, got a key skills maths thing for my apprentice course, I was told to make a survey with ten choices and ask people their opinions, and I figured as I have hundreds of people with the same (and if not more) knowledge and experience of the trials industry right here at my fingertips I should set up a poll here to get good and valuable opinions from the lovely people here at TF.
Basically just pick a brand based on the frames, your vote can be down to anything, your experiences, or even what you've heard about the products, or just your opinion on the look of the line of frames that your chosen brand has out at the moment. All data is good data, and obviously the more the better, it'll make it more accurate when making averages etc.
your opinions will be appreciated greatly.
Cheers!

Might be the lower bottom bracket, it puts your centre of gravity lower to the floor which makes it harder to lift? Other than that I'm not sure..
-
Just buy both sets and see which ones fit, I doubt they're that much anyway? Or are they?
-
Wow, thanks guys! Big help, I'll give it a go tonight
Cheers again!

Hey guys, I've built a few wheels of my own and I sometimes build wheels for other people, but I can't seem to build a wheel without it being egged, what can you do to stop this happening? Is there a technique? Or am I just being stupid?
Help will be massively appreciated,
Kieran

this is like a mk4 isnt it?
-
cheers boss! looks like the clearance is ok to,
thanks again
It does rub, but I believe its the front version of the Sd7, you can buy the rear version with longer arms for extra clearance
and my wheel has a slight egg to it which doesn't help either 
-
Thanks a lot man

Just got a CK hub off a mate and it has what looks like a HD axle, but the fun bolts don't fit in to it, I've taken the axle out and it looks like the HD axle on Tarty, I thought you could run fun bolts with this axle? There are these thread insert thingy's in there, do i take them out? Or have i got the wrong axle? Any help would be largely appreciated.
Cheers,
Kieran
Edit: it's the BMX axle

Do you mean Account Number?
Lmao

Alternate Tensioning Methods?

Hey guys!
Been out of the loop for a while with my job and no one else to ride with, recently got back into it with my mate (BigAl) as he has just bought a new steed.
Problem is that the built in tensioners on the ice are really temperamental, I've lost one from the non-drive dropout but it didn't really make a difference so I'm currently running one. I'm finding it difficult to get good chain tension with a good brake as well. I thought the other day if i drilled a hole through the dropout and tapped a thread into it would it hold up for the use of cams?
Any help would be great!
