It's likely that it just needs abit of oil to lubricate the seals then.

Take the pads out and stick some chain lube, bit of mineral oil or something on the pistion and pull the brake, force the piston back in a couple of times and see if that frees it up. What's it bled with? Water or oil? Water bled brakes tend to need abit of lubrication every now and then as water isn't a brilliant lubricant. If that doesn't work, try a re-bleed.

Do you mean the piston in the slave cylinders aren't retracting properly?

Number 5 (front 160mm) so with your +20mm you are able to use a 180mm disc.

M6 x 25 should do the trick.

I have been getting pretty good at manuals this year which makes me happy as I have been learning them for years. The thing that made me improve the most was doing really slow speed manuals, on flat ground and on a brakeless bike. It really helped me learn the right body movements to keep the manual, especially without being able to rely on your back brake to stop you from looping out.

26" yeah? 18:15 will actually be about the same as 22:18. 22:18-19 is about the standard on stock for have a 22T chainring. But if you want it too feel harder then 22:18 and you want the freewheel up front, then mabye try 18:14. But that might upset your chain tension if you have horizontal drop outs and might require a half-link, as most frames are designed with 18:15 in mind ( if you have vertical drop outs then you won't have any problems ).

Works fine for me . I might get one myself as the one of my Ashton is abit tatty (I'm not riding that frame at the moment, but I might build it up again one day ). Cheers for pointing them out.

4 of the hijecker could still alive according to the BBC. Aswell as 5 others apparently (if I find a good source for the others later I will link it). Also the Government let it happen theory has been around for a long time. This is about where I stand. Although if I had to make a dicision here and now of wich I believed more, I think I would sway against the governments story.

Yes.

I don't want to go into as much detail or look up some more stuff like I did before. I can't be bothered we could probably back and fourth all day. So I will come back from a few of the easier points. Haha! Really? Could be or is? I want to stress again... Although I believe alot of 9/11 questions have not been unanswered and I find alot of it very fishy, I don't necessarily agree with what I have been saying. So what I have said in this topic isn't what I think happened. What I have been discussing with Ali is the conspiracy theories that I believe could be understandable or that I agree with more than the official story. I wanted to get a good discussion going with both points of view. I don't think it was investigated properly. It's one of the biggest crimes ever and I don't think it was treated that way. Like I said earlier... If they have nothing to hide then what excuse do they have?

It is. She was seen on many video, photos and by people. But the stairs and elavators are in the middle. People got out from above the impact zones. The smoke is very dark and we don't see much fire after a while. Doesn't that normally mean that the fire was oxygen starved?

If you look at the possibily of it being a demolition, more of the colums were taken out on that side, so it would have fallen that way first anyway. What I don't get it why it didn't keep falling that way. Not quite the same... But when a tree is cut, it falls towards the cut. I don't see how the weight of the top of the building, over to one side, can take it down with such symetry. We see a wonky object take out a sound structure symetrically, and then that ebject gets smaller untill it disappears into the rest of the falling rubble during the first stages collapseand then it just looks like a fountain of explosions bringing it down from the top. The same thing happens to the north tower, the 'pile driver' dissapears. Doesn't the collapse go against Newton's 3rd law aswell? Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Wouldn't the top and the lower part destroy each other evenly until they balanced out and stop any further collapse as the 'pile driver' would be gone?

So it is hot enough to weaken steel but people can survive the infurno? Plus a few people survived the impact in the impact zone and people escaped from above floors. I read online that it is about 212*F for a human body too boil. But 1300+*F is surviveable? Also am I right in saying that steel is a very good dissipater of heat? Wouldn't it just spread the heat to other joining collumns and not actually get too a very high temperature?

I know, I just wanted to make it clear that I wasn't one of the crazy people from that crowd, since I have said alot of stuff in this thread alot of people probably won't agree with.

I agree that's why I said this earlier. There is also a theory about the planes being holograms. Those kinds of theories come from the people who wear foil hates and spend their lives on the interent trolling every conspiracy known to man. But the ones that come from the engineers and the scientists, who don't go into the conspiracy, it was the government side of things and concentrate on the "That doesn't make sense, they ignored this and that, this is the best hypothesis from the evidence and testimonies I have observed", For example... Richard Gage. They make more sense to me and seem to have more evidence to support their theories. They do make me wonder.

The Trialtech sprung tensioner is a good'en. Or a Rohloff but it is abit pricey.

I will come back with some other possible theories and facts. Some I believe, some I am not so sure on. But discussion is good . I'm not saying whether it is a conspiracy or not. But it does make me wonder and I personally don't see how it doesn't make other people wonder, especially with all the holes in their story and when you think about who is benefitting and getting rich off of it.

Really? Do you not find any of it at all fishy? And for example; Is all the evidence of explosives and eye witness accounts of explosions not at all relevant, especially the reports of the ones that went off in the basements moments before the planes hit? Like I said in my post earlier, i'm not 100% sure on anything. But too me it seems very suspicious, enough so too have some doubts and too question it. EDIT: I ask because all you have done is called people stupid without backing up your claim with anything and not really contributed to the discussion. I think it will be interesting to hear some views of the people that believe what the government have told them without any doubts.

Was it called something like 'the conspiracy files'? If it is then yeah I watched that. I didn't think it was very good though. They just seemed to say the theories were wrong and not back their claims up very well. Only a few survived inside the towers when they collapsed. I would personally feel better knowing that it was shot down if it really was. I don't see why they would want to cover that up. As horrible as it sounds... If a hijacked plane threatens to cause greater death and distruction then shooting it down would, I would feel more protected knowing that the authorities would take that step and shoot it down to prevent a greater incident from happening. For example is all four planes were shot down on 9/11, only the passengers and hijackers would have died. Instead of nearly 3,000 in the towers, the ones in the pentagon, the ones with the heath issues from the dust, the passengers and the hijackers who would have died wither way. If it was a conspiracy and he knew about it, I don't think he would be stupid enough to spill the beans about it not being Bin Laden. As that would be one of the most destructive news to expose the conspiracy.

Of course it was an act of terror, but who the terrorists are is the question. The evidence that I have seen of a conspiracy far outweighs and makes more sense then the official report, which also left out many important factors and failed to explain their own theories. I have also seen some very poor debunking efforts that were again proven wrong by the "truthers" (especially with the thermite/thermate debate). Some of the conspiracy theories about 9/11 do get a bit silly though, but people like Richard Gage makes a alot of sense to me. He never really makes any specualtion about who he believes is behind it either. He just says that there needs too be a better, independent investigation, which I agree with. He points out all the things that don't add up with all the evidence and shares theories that do. 9/11 is the only conspiracy theory I have ever really believed and taken interest in (I don't wear a foil hat). And although I agree with most of it, I still don't like to believe it is a conspiracy. I guess to me, it's a scarier thought then the idea of terrorists being behind it. The fact that the BBC found around half of the supposed hijackers still alive and that there was never any hard evidence that Bin Laden was behind the attacks doesn't help with that though. RIP to all who died. Conspiracy or not, it was still a horrible day with a tragic amount of lives lost and still being lost with health issues of people there that day.

The 4 monester Ms up the top tube shouldn't be there in my opinion. Apart from that and that I don't like it when people energy drink up their bikes, motor bikes, cars and stuff, it doesn't look too bad.

Try coating it in WD40 and leaving it to soak in for a while, see if that will help.

That was awesome. Looks like you are getting on with the Zhi very well.
