  1. Good post. Was very imformative. But surely that can't be truee. ^^^ The heavy duty ones must be a bit stronger or else they wouldn't make them?
  2. Get the Kenda tube. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=32 I was in the same boat as you. Gapping and landing on the edge very rough and getting pinch flats. The Kenda tube is MASSIVE, haha. And so strong. I did a gap to a metal railway line from a wall and landed so rough a dented my rim, but I didn't puncture. Saying that though, I have punctured it 3 times since i've had it. But I am very ruff.
  3. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...category_id=523 Click add to basket and buy the M5 X 45 option. That's what your looking for.
  4. Doesn't mean my head is big. Hehe I never knew you didn't like it, haha.
  5. You know good question. It's just what we know him as haha. And yes, we quite regularly make fun of his abnormally large head when we are out riding.
  6. Oh, cool. Thanks for that. Will Tarty be stocking them in two weeks? And how much will they be costing ruffly?
  7. I never knew that bit of the story. Haha. That's pretty scary actually. If Mcinnes didn't happen to have deleted that clip it wouldn't have happened? Duuuude. Lol
  8. We're at the beginning of August so they will be with you soon. Just gotta be patient bud.
  9. Whaat!? What was wrong with it then? A 2 month old chain shouldn't snap.
  10. Hehe, no. Next time you won't drop gap off a bus shelter with an old dodgy chain.
  11. That was actually really enjoyable Pleb. Great video dude. Looks like an ace place to ride. You've improved loads on that XTP boy! And I did like that edit aswell Ross. Nice relaxed video.
  12. Of course you are:P Yeah... but you are just you. Everything on your bike is always working perfect! You have some wierd magic powers of making your bike never break! So... bar 1... caged pedals always break! Hehe
  13. Hey, Sorry for bumping this topic, but... any news on when it's gonna come out because this is like 2 months later haha. My Try-All is threatening to die on me and i'm needing a new freewheel but I don't want to buy and then this one to come out because i'm much prefer one of these new Tensiles! Anyway, does anyone know if it will be on Tarty or able to buy anywhere? Thanks Hunter
  14. Wait... I have a feeling I have misunderstood this... but the answer seems quite simple to me. If it's the nut that you tighten so the bolt won't move, put the 3mm allen key in the end of the bolt (the bit you tighten when you are moving the wheel back) and keep on turning it till the bolt comes out and then the nut will just fall off?
  15. Platform platform platform platform!! Haha. In my opinon platform are far far superior to caged. Caged have one advantage and one only. They are lighter. All my friends or people I have ridden with, their caged pedals always break. The outer cages always snap off or in some cases the pedal itself snaps. I find platforms are alot grippier, are definately a hell of alot stronger and also, if your pins fall out, you can replace them. They just feel more comortable in general. And even though caged aint as grippy, they hurt a hell of a lot more when you pedalslap. :/ Platform.
  16. Anyway, back to the actual question on the topic. Has anyone found different tyre pressures wear the treads quicker?
  17. I could swear that pic of the sidehop is at the Freight Yard. Am I right?
  18. Then after a day got bored and took it apart and built the previous frame up again! Haha
  19. That made no sense what so ever! Ahhh. Lol:P
  20. Haha, well I don't think it's anything I will do anytime soon. Haha.
