The point is though that the KERS technology will then be seen as 'cool' enough for the general public to pay extra to get similar technology on their road cars, hence making a proportion of cars on the road more economical and efficient...

Is SuperCycles being rebranded as Rock N' Roll Bikes dot com?

To be honest, if you can't wheelie with an 18/12 setup you need to change your technique rather than the gearing. A 13T on the back would make the gearing easier (and easier to lift the front wheel) but you'll probably end up having problems with chain length/tension etc and really isn't worth the hassle.

Ghey. Ah well, saves me a 2 hour drive each way I guess.

I'm sad, I'm watching it now

Try youtube and see what it comes out like?

The pedal axle's are 9/16" so the thread will be some wierd imperial one... Edit: Sheldon Brown (RIP) states the pedal threads as 9/16" x 20 (i.e. 20 t.p.i), again obviously with one left hand and one right hand thread.

Not sure about the thread size (Adam at TartyBikes will be able to tell you on Tuesday I reckon) but they are left and right hand specific so whatever thread it is you'll have to track down both a right and left handed tap in that size...

Will you boys still be out whatever the weather?

Anyone know much about Da Bomb frames? I've just bought one of these for the hell of it: And am gonna transplant all the bits from my Specialized Hardrock onto it. At £120 I didn't think I could go far wrong...

Same really, would definitely be up for it if the weather wasn't supposed to be so poo...

Well, to be fair, that's actually true. Anyone (with enough funds behind them) can be a race driver. They might not be a Lewis Hamilton but it certainly wouldn't stop you trying. I'd also say that there's a lot more skill involved in riding a trials bike well than hopping around (on your feet) like a numpty. As has been said, I'd hazard a guess that the only people who can make this look less than stupid would be muscular black guys in baggy troo's and possibly lots of gold jewellery... Just my opinion as someone who can't dance worth a shizz (and doesn't ever want to be able to) and gets angry at those annoying celebrity dance shows

Yes, I'd say that anybody who can support their own body weight on their legs could do it...

Had to be done!

Dude, you have some serious anger issues! I admit the stock Zoot isn't exactly a looker, but it certainly doesn't make them worthy of some of your comments. I know, it's only an opinion but... Consider as an example, along with Tomm's beasty black and white beast (pics somewhere...). They don't have to look like poo. Edit: The geometry for the Zoot was, I'm pretty sure, developed by Adam, Dave and the boys at TartyBikes before going into production. The geometry was then tweaked slightly for the Inspired, but only slightly. Don't forget that the Zoot was also aimed at being a more trialsy based 24" bike, hence the Rex styling (plus it was a known quantity for Onza). Anyway, back to the 24UK...

Not sure, probably in the Summer sometime. Will give you a shout when I do though .

Adam, I will personally have to put the smackdown on you if I ever see you throwing that bike into the undergrowth due to a dodgy rear brake... What's this about a Brizzol ride Sunday?... Could be tempted if the weather looks reasonable.

I went from a CK to an ENO when I changed from my Adamant 26" to my 24". Can't actually remember why to be honest, I tend not to think to much about these things! I'm not complaining though, I've never had issues with FFW, especially since the ENO was released. Go for it and see what you think, at least your bike will no longer sound like a wounded wasp... Edit: Ben, I've never caught my trousers on the 24" (I think) because I'm running a bashring. Mod's with no bash causes problems but having one seems to solve this.

It's not much better when you think that it stands for 'Hot Engineering Novelties' either... Ah well.

Only if you change the lever leverage surely? If you use a standard lever, it will pull right to the bars before the pads even touch the rim... When they do contact you'll have better braking force (i.e. pressure behind the pistons) but if that's not usable then it's pointless. Maybe I'm missing something though.

19mm piston vs. 14mm on standard maggy? Lever pivot will have to be modified also to allow the ratios to work... is there a matching lever H.e.n. (jpeg seems to say that it will be used with a Magura/Echo/RB lever)? I'm sure Tarty will correct me if that's wrong Says it's made from tool steel... kind of overkill isn't it? Immediately making it heavier than a comparative Ma/Den gura. Also (sorry for the negativity, just trying to understand everything) I can't see any way of bleeding the brake. Are there other bolts on the bottom of the calipers to allow bleeding?

It's a mod frame though so no need to worry Ads!

How come no sexy HF tubing on the Limey 20"? Basically I'd like a Limey 1.six but shrunk in the wash Could well've been tempted by one if that was the case... Also on the Ice, that Chainstay/BB interface looks like a major weak point. From the pictures it looks like you've reduceed the join/weld area to the absolute minimum possible which seems like a bad idea to me surely?
