thanks mate

what do you mean mate?

i know i may sound out of the loop but what does TGS stand for

thanks man thats made a lot more sense to me and you found it in a shop which is like 10mins from where i live but when i rang them they said they didnt have any nevermind ill print the page and proove em wrong im very happy cant thank you enough i grinded my rim today aswell very pleased with the result!!! its making progress

yeah looks a pretty big booster aswell too big to get between my v and small seat (i have a planet x zebdi) anyone got any ideas where to get this gear cable from ive been looking high and low since mentioned to me also is it an inner or outer thanks thomas

read the topic "good set up for a rear v brake" im having a similar task at the moment some people have given some good advice

where did you get your sp5 cable from? or do you have one for sale?

is this sp5 cable an inner or an outer im getting a little confused i have emailed tartybikes to enquire if they can get hold of one.... none of my local bike shops showed much promise thanks thomas

Hi Ali Where abouts did you get your cable from ive just had a look on the internet and google did not have much success thanks thomas

ok this is what i was thinking a grind following that video (thanks for the link mate) some TNN V pads i currently have a shimano deore v but i am open for recommendations to other calipers a avid lever as advised by ali c and an xtr cable and maybe a booster of some sort that sound about right chaps i am open to other suggestions really humbled by the response guys i havnt really checked here for a while and u guys have pointed me in the right direction thanks thomas

I am a bit of an old skool rider and like the idea of running a v brake rather than a maggy because of crashing pipe bursting ride over for the day issues i have previously had... anyway im looking to overhaul the rear v brake set up on my planet x. i need some advice. best value for money levers? best value for money caliper booster yes/no if yes which one? and finally pads.... ive read through the pad reviews as a first port of call but cant make up my mind.... its a toss up between: tnn v pads heatsink yellow v pads heatsink white v pads i currently run a mavic d521 rim with no grind. do you recommend a grind if so know any good links to videos or advice threads on here. your feedback would be greatly appreciated. thanks thomas

what v is it that you are running and with what lever?

Hi i am looking to find a web video which was done by gate eight, which featured eddy and matt tongue this was a long time ago but was a real cracking video the music to it was pixies where is my mind if that helps since watching the trialskings videos.... everyone should watch them!!!! it just became apparent that i really missed this video thanks

what is the model of stem and where can you get one from and are the bars azonic double walls and the levers look good what are they sorry for all the questions mate but i really like it

they are pace trials forks mate they dont make them any more such a shame!!!!! i raw'd them though also the stem

Did a bit of work in the garage since the clocks went back here it is

how much roughly does it cost to get it shot blasted?

hi i have dug my old dmr sidekick out of the garage i am going to respray it because mr rust has settled in on it so the problem i have got is that it was the smoked chrome version is there an easy way to get this off........... i have tried nitromorse so such luck any help would be great thanks thomas

Hi i have for many years been running a rear mech, with a short length of cable to keep it in my chosen gear but recetly smashed it to bits been looking around at these single speed replacements that you can buy.... whats the best one to get, ie good value for money, and where should i get it from? i run a road cassette if that helps also? or is it worth just buying another rear mech and doing the same again? thanks

went out on friday night for the first time in a while, well almost a year to be honest this was the best pic of the lot that we took what do u guys reckon?

i am looking for a rear mech hanger for a planet x zebdi, preferably a new one and maybe more than one so i dont have this problem again. but if i can just get one that would be fine for now. not sure if they use a generic shape although my koxx one would not fit in, unfortunatly cant take a picture of one to assist because my frame didnt come with one (thank you ebay) thanks guys

can you run a kmc cool chain through a rear mech, ie a singlespeed set up which has a cassette and a mech hanger if so which one would you need?
