  1. Cannot say exactly due to variations on hubs, spokes, quick releases, tubes and tyres. And please put these little questions in Random Small Questions.
  2. I'm pretty sure most off were just taking off the GU/Adamant/Zoo websites when they came out. I recognise the background on most of the pics. I love the Adamants though, always had a thing for the 20"...
  3. Does she not trust you that you won't do anything with your ex? But yeah, get a mod to close this and just post again in girl trouble thread. Bed time...
  4. Tell your current girl about your ex's situation and you want to help but not misunderstood for something else? Surely she would understand and she might even offer to help your ex? This goes in the girl trouble thread i would imagine by the way...
  5. So if you consider refills, how do we go about seperating the material from the backings? It sounds like they are impossible to seperate by hand...
  6. Me, Sam and probably Andrew told him not to get it as well....please tell be you are not getter it just because Tom has one? Sound should be the last thing on the list if you ask me. You probably won't break it now but when you do you have to buy something else where you could have just gotten something better in the first place. Like austen said, hub isn't going to improve your riding. I would rather keep the standard hub/freewheel for now and get better bars/stems/brakes.
  7. Adam can you let us know if they are refillable? I pre-ordered mine and I will have to refund them if they can't be refilled with their own materials or other materials...
  8. http://www.prestigepaintworx.com/ ? They're in Darlington, does cars but surely they can do a simply bike frame?
  9. If you want to splash out some money on new hub soon and maybe a new set of teeth go for it. Low price is good but for a part that is known to have problems I really suggest you get another freehub thats more reliable or go FFW for less hassle in the long term.
  10. My say on this is, you do it you're a cock.
  11. NAH! Black hubs, silver spokes and nipples, black rim and black tyre looks MEAN!
  12. Send it recorded or special delivery next time...
  13. Best is get them helicoiled, drilling to M6 and stripping that means drilling out to even bigger size holes which you'll probably strip again... Helicoils done right are hard to damage.
  14. That's like £60 there already, £30 on pads and £30 on second hand maggy, not to mention the annoying evo mounts and ugly booster thing you ahve to put on. V-brakes aren't that bad. A grind and decent pads will really improve the hold.
  15. Grind your rear rim and get some decent v-pads, CNC heatsink pads? About £20. Trialtech bars , get them second hand off here if you can find one. They go for about £30 ish, then get some trialtech foam grips, £6. Stems, look for something in For Sale section such as echo team or trialtech sport stems, you might be able to them about £20ish. They have less rise than your current stem but nice riser bars with headset spacers will raise the bars up a little. If you can splash out a bit more, you could change the forks but the only advantage is save a bit of weight and maybe strength depending on which ones you buy. Curved forks will also increase your wheelbase by a few mm, 5-10mm maybe. If you don't mind the forks, spend some on other little things like cheap but grippy pedals or a chainstay protector? EDIT: FFW is less hassle than a freehub, if they go wrong and you need to replace it you have to debuild you wheel which is annoying. FFW you just take cranks off and unscrew it. The deng range of freehubs are known to skip, search the forum you'll find a few topics on them.
  16. Bub hubs are sexy!! Look Look!
  17. That's as bad as stripping your brake mounts!! Get rid now!! Good effort on making the stickers but doesn't look good on the frame.
  18. That's what I thought when I saw the t-shirt and I've seen the video.
  19. The pic on the t-shirt make it looks like a fail to people who haven't seen the video...you know, dude on bike, upside down away from a tree.... A little bit over the top now people are doing t-shirts...
  20. Ummm don't mean to sound rude but why would you post it up when it's already on the Echo website? I'm not liking any of them designs though...maybe they will look a better in real life? What is deng up to? Someone is lacking some design skills!
