Quality is suprisingly good, even with my crappy internet. Carthy is an absolute animal!!

Theres a few riders round Lowestoft way. Theres a ride today, meeting at 11:30 at Clearmont Pier, then just riding along the seafront. If your free, just come out.

Ryan and me will be down bout midday saturday. Also doing the comp on the sunday.

Onza are selling an ex display Genesis frame on Ebay CLICK ME

Carl, best way to do bed them in is get as much speed up as possible, then slam the brake on, repeat a few times. If you drag it on slightly, theres a chance it can glaze over. Just done my rear hope, didnt even need water and its ace.

Paint = Nitromorse (just paint the goo on, leave for a while, then use scrunched up newspaper or similar to wipe it off, burns if you get it on your skin) Anodised = Caustic soda (can get in most hardware stores, dissolve it in water, dip bike part in and leave for a few mins, voila. Do it outside though its very horrible stuff) EDIT: TOO SLOW

Hit the nail on the head!

Looks awesome alex What u doing with the old Fans? May be interested in it...... Not liking the Onza anymore.

These would suit you fine mate, really grippy if you get the heel wedged in the pedal.

Theres a big Tesco about 5 miles away on the edge of chelmsford. Postcode is CM2 9XW.

Weather looks good! See you there.

Jack, don't be a pussy! Meet at Clearmont 11 o'clock like usual?

So whos actually riding tomorrow? I'll be there rain or shine, been inside too much this week.

Pretty sure that frame has 110mm spacing as opposed to 116, as it doesn't use snail cams. Whereas the hub is designed for 116mm spacing, dont think it'll work.

Drop into the swimming pool looks awesmome (53s)

Needle nose pliers should just pull out, although can be a bit stiff.

just the one, got a maggy booster holding it all together atm lol

Yeah i'll be there. Cracks getting scary big now, really wanna build the new frame up. Just have to keep it mellow i guess.

Anyone got any spare olives? Not of the food kind! Really want to get the new frame built up, but need to fit a new hose to the maggy.

Thought i'd whack a few pics of the bike up before she dies. Cracked on the seatstay, hence the maggy booster holding it all together! And a quick riding shot Spec for anyone interested.

Looking good Mowgli, gap at the beginning looked pretty big. Ride soon.

Gd stuff, see u there. I've got your number ryan, so if you're not there i'll give you a ring.

Yeah im coming today. Never rode Beccles or Bungay, sure theres something to ride though. Train gets in at half 11, where are people meeting, what time?

Will try and get down for this, haven't touched my trials bike in 3 months, so might be a wee bit rusty! Anyone travelling down from Beccles way?

Whats wrong with the current rims? No need to upgrade stuff for no reason. Changing forks and bars/stem may make it feel nicer.
