Another trials game, quite neatly done in 3D with front and rear brakes. Physics are quite cool too in places. Good for messing about on for half an hour Click You need to download it and it runs through Java.

Slick = good. i.e. superior to normal cables at not much premium. Pretty much any BMX shop in the country. Try custom riders, alans bmx, pijin, cyclesport ltd, winstanleys bmx etc etc. Usually about £6-£7. Dave

Harder or easier than what? What were you previously running? If you had an 18T freewheel on the cranks before then going to a 16T will make the gearing a good bit lower (more spinny).

24" ***

T-cut works too if you have any of that lying around for your car...

Yeah, I'd say it looks a bit... wrong... You should be able to have good control on the backwheel with your current posture but you seem to be struggling to throw yourself into moves because you're already so far forwards. Just play around with lowering the front wheel/dropping your butt and see how it goes.

Good find... some nasty and some quite retarded bails in there! Even our very own Karsonleveret (Rich Pearson) is in there!

Everyone's giving gay a negative connotation here... clearly the kid must have meant it in the positive sense: Gay– adjective 1. having or showing a merry, lively mood: gay spirits; gay music. 2. bright or showy: gay colors; gay ornaments. 3. given to or abounding in social or other pleasures: a gay social season. Good luck whatever you're riding now Sam

To be honest, you must've done something wrong to screw up ISIS splines... They may distort a little over time but should be almost impossible to truly destroy. I'm running the Echo Forged's on my Inspired and really like them. TryAll's will be no different in spline quality and I expect the material is virtually identical. Anyway, hope you don't snap the Tensiles, Chigs...

Haha, that was my third guess... tis a bit of a monster! Actually, as Bigman says, it does remind me of what used to come on the Bighits.

My money's on a Halo Ception... or maybe a Nokian Gazza?

Good choice

Gotta have somewhere to put a seat-clamp though...

Looks good mate. Obviously not as nice as mine but close!! What seat you gonna put on it? Dave

Looks like it should be run with 24" wheels... Just looks kinda wrong as it is.

Yeah, I've seen the DMR and Macneil themselves do their standard post in 27.2, but proper stumpy's aren't yet available. I'd rather wait and get a proper one than spend £25 and then start hacking at it to make it into a bodged stumpy. The '08 SL's are pretty sweet too though, both the all black and all white are rather noice... would also like to see what an Animal Bikes pivotal looks like in the flesh...

No worries. Basically to run an 18T freewheel on the rear hub, you'd need to be running a 27T on the cranks to get the same gearing as a standard 18/12 setup. Dave

However, as far as I'm aware, there are currently no manufacturers making stump pivotal posts in 27.2... and I'd rather wait to do it properly than fanny round with shims... Plus, you're soooo behind the times OBM- those are last years SL saddles. Damn, man, keep with the times Dave

No no no no no. Think about it... If you put a 12T on the cranks and ran an 18T freewheel on the back (which I think is what you're getting at), the gearing would be so easy you would actually go nowhere. The only way of doing it is to get the freewheel off your cranks and onto the Echo's. Or, if it's just a cheap ACS or something just buy a new freewheel at the same time. Dave

Money on it's way, Nick. Also, can I ask whether Paypal are stealing their usual 2.5%+20p or whatever it is from all donations?... If so it would probably make sense for people to send money by cheque or direct bank transfer if possible. Just a thought. Dave

Oh my god! What a brilliant idea!! You mean you could just add songs just like that, I mean, wow. Now why the fcuk didn't iCharlie's beloved Apple think of that?! Dave P.S. That's in no way a sarcastic dig at Haz for what you've written, just me wondering why the hell Apple have to be so retarded.

Looks a little like it's been taken from another picture and the background photoshopped out... if I knew any better I'd have said there should be a man standing quite close behind her... And that looks kinda like the heads been photoshopped on from another pic as well! Wierd. Excellent find, Boswell...

Dude. Seriously. Being a rather ungeeky, sheltered child, I didn't even know you could use third party software. But as a hater of itunes and most things Apple I may give one of these a go too...

[sarcasm]Ah, right, gotcha. Never realised[/sarcasm]. Already given my opinion, and the Santa comment is just a bit of fun in line with my views... Oh yeah, and I was under the impression that Easter also had something to do with this jesus dude you mention...

Allready happened in Australia apparently, although it was not banned, as such, but up to the individual 'Santa's' discretion. They were told they should say Ha Ha Ha instead. No Joke. Edit: Link to story. My sister, who works in an accounting firm in Toronto, had a meeting the other day about what to call their Christmas Party. Apparently the word Christmas may offend people so they're going to be having a "holiday celebration" or "winter celebration" or "holiday party"... Plus all cards must read Happy Holiday. If you ask me that's just completely retarded. Everyone knows December 25th is just Santa's birthday, why is that offensive?!
