    Spoke Length

    Hello i am going to have a go at building my wheel myself before i go straight to a bike shop not sure on what length spokes i will need. i know when ordering on tarty you can just tell them the hub shell and the rim and they will do the maths for you trouble is i dont know the brand of the rim, got it second hand you see i have included some pictures of it do any of you guys know what rim it is, and also what length of spokes to use the hub shell i am going to use is a chris king classic, along with the rim pictured below, and its going to be 32h thanks thomas
  7. it was a relief mate i can tell you
  8. yeah its ok, not going to happen again certain people abuse a system and spoil it for everybody else the only reason i did it was to keep the postage cost down for their own benefit in my opinion he jumped to the conclusion i was scamming him rather quickly but having said that he could argue that the potential was there
  9. i sold them on ebat because nobody wanted to buy them on here they wernt trials specific forks i know most of the guys are here bar a few exceptions are good people to deal with regarding parts recorded from now on ive learnt my lesson
  10. so am i i wasnt comfortable with the whole situation and didnt want a dispute on my hands as im not a bad seller on ebay
  11. they seem to be having a really good time maybe the music has fooled me into thinking that haha
  12. Lets Toast To Sitting Tight Got a message from him this morning he went to his local post office and they had them there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! much happier now good job i didnt refund due to his incompitence!!!
  13. i have sent him a message advising him of the sets of circumstances 15 working days has to pass undelivered until a package can be declared as lost in the post until then he is gonna have to wait, the parcel was posted on the 10th it is now the 18th, with a weekend inbetween so there has only been 6 days passed so far

    New Chain

    Just burried my knee into my stem doing a hop need a new chain hahaha what is the best chain for me to get i run a cassette and a rear mech on a stock bike i want a really really strong one price not a big issue thanks thomas
  15. as i said it is only the 18th today and they were posted on the 10th im gonna sit tight for a bit then see what happens...... if anything further develops im going to put a claim in thanks
  16. i have a receipt from the post office which has the post code written on it of where they sent it to i posted them on the tenth and its only the 18th now i am reluctant to just refund the money to him at the moment if i hear nothing in a few days time i shall look into where they have got to it annoys me because i have sent parts in the same way before and had no problems at all i was thinking that maybe he has given me the wrong address??? if that is the case surely it is not my fault because the address i sent it to was the one supplied, and even if i had sent them recorded delivery and the address was incorrect i would still have this problem!!!!
  17. To All i have recently sold a fair of rigid forks on ebay guy paid through paypal, i posted the item, i posted using the address that he had supplied through ebay i also attached a return address first class and got a postage receipt did not use tracked postage because item wasnt worth much and was looking to keep postage costs down to the buyer i got a message through ebay last night, he claims that he has not yet received the forks he wants me to find out where they have got to (cant do that not tracked) and he is threatening to retract his payment can he do that the money is already in my paypal account.? also where do i stand if this goes to a dispute? i did not mention at all in the sale post that the delivered would be recorded tracked i just put it as sellers standard rate any help would be appreciated so i am prepared if this goes the distance

  22. the skins are worn for a reason the lycra keeps the muscles warm and also aids the body in recovery. there is a significant difference between some skins and a pair of you mothers laddered derniers haha some athletes sleep in them also as it maintains a core temperature around the muscles and prevents cramping so aids recovery. i have both the skins shorts and top for rugby and it does work, you warm up quicker and stay warm they work on the same principle as a wet suite, ironically skins make wetsuits also oh what a coincidence
  23. i got them off a bike of a mates who i am no longer in contact with now and didnt ask at the time i assumed they were pashleys but like i said i am not sure
  24. Been clearing my garage out and found these i think they are pashley forks, but i remember having a pair of pashelys before and them having no disc mount so i am curious they are also for sale, not sure if im going to sell them on here or through ebay but id like to know what forks they are first thanks thomas
