  19. Thanks guys some idea and easy ways to clean the chain there thanks Gaz
  20. Sorry to just jump into your thread mate but could i ask what are the benifits of running on rims with holes in them. Not he ones with the holes on the wall of the rim
  21. ive got a cleaning tool somewhere at home its the one with 3 round bruches in it that opens and closes on the chain and as you pedal the chain runs along the brushes which are going into the cleaning liquid as they go round
  22. Hi guys before you ask yes i did a search but i couldnt find anything, My question is whats the best thing to use to clean your bikes chain with. I have a chain cleaner but i ran out of cleaner and ive heard that washing up liquid is a good sub to the cleaners that you can buy from shops. As it a good degreeser and would get rid of any old oil and crap on the chain. Ive also been told that its a good idea to well oil the chain once its all clean and dry. Could anyone give them there views and advise on this please Thanks Gaz
  23. Hi mate thanks for the reply im sticknig with my gecko frame i think just want to upgrade it alittle without going mad, Thinking of getting rid of the fork for some rigid ones nothing too flash just basic ones, then i what to get some hs33s front and rear. Thanks mate thanks great, whats your view on brakes what type do you use, discs, vees or mags
  24. Thanks guys that would be good, Where about in birmingham do you ride then and when, Im not on my own as a mate of mine also used to ride alot and his on about getting his bike back out too so there maybe two of us that may come along
  25. Hi guys as you know im new to this forum, I want to get back into the trials game and have some questions i would like to ask and it would be great for some of you to answer them for me. First off is what rims and tyres would be a good start for me to look at?, Next is What front forks are best to use suspension ones or not? Is it wise to have the 3 gears on the front or would just the two rings be ok? Last is i have a barracuda gecko frame, standard set up as regards to gears and parts. Apart from DMR V6 pedals, An planet 6 stem, Motocross style bars, downhill tyres, standard shimano hubs and rims but printy hard going ones. full 18 gears with trigger type shifters and standard front suspension forks nothing top When i get a minute ill post some pics Thanks Gaz
