I have nothing but jealousy for you. How's the gusset rotor? I was gonna get one but got a mono trial instead, should have got the gusset... Bike is ridiculously nice.

I refuse to ride a stock! If it's just the paint, sell us unpainted frames, I'll spray it myself!

I see my bb5 has arrived to you! Are they working alright? One nice 221, I'm not a fan of them frames but I like your mod!

Are you missing one of these headset wedge? The forks shouldn't move at all if theres a wedge on the top and bottom of the headset.

Reading I'm in!

And the sponsored rider is me! Not. I like the frame a lot but not the colour...

Can I have one for Christmas?

I'm in!

Snapped an axle? Sounds impossible! They must be really poop! My cams (16mm holes) goes on my hubs, not on my axle so I guess I don't have to worry about my axles. But seriously, cams really don't move/harder to move out of place if they are done up tight.

Yes, try before you buy! I knew from the start I wanted to ride a mod, and a mod I got. Plus I look odd with a stock! From your height and weight, I would say stock, but then again there a people shorter than you that rides stocks. But it comes down to preference. So again, try before you buy, if possible. But if not, and you are desperate, stock is for you in my opinion! And yes you should buy a second hand mod/stock, really no point buying a new one if you are just starting, no doubt you will 'bump, graze and break' and you will want to cry when you scratch your new and shiny bike. You might need to replace a few parts here and there such as brake pads or tyres or grips. I like your story in your profile! Get ready to hear "Where's the seat?" from passers by!

You shouldn't need to notch the cams more. Are you winding the cam up with your hands until it won't go any further? If yes, get a spanner/pliers and hold onto the cam ends, wind it up one more notch. You shouldn't be able to move this at all with your hands afterwards, your chain should also be nice and tight. I had a similar problem, winding the cam with my hands, they kept slipping. But after winding it up one more notch with pliers/spanner, mine has not slipped once. That was 1 month ago.

Okay, I'll be heading home to Soton for my Christmas holiday. And I'll will be free most of the time so that means riding! No specific dates set yet, but any day is fine for me between the above dates. Just want to know if people are free and want to come out riding. I've only been riding in pompey, so haven't met many (if any) people from soton and I would like to. Any mod riders? Meet in city center I suppose. I live near Bitterne. Please post if you are interetesd!

MY EYES MY EYES! I CAN'T SEE! But about skinny jeans, okay they might be comfy and yes I have tried a pair on, not girls ones. But they are just annoying, skin tight doesn't help your riding. I rode once on my normal bike, it did not feel nice and I can't stretch my legs out! Surely you must sweat when you are riding, bmx or trials, the feel of sweaty jeans+boxers (if you have room to wear any...) are just disgusting. If skinnys are comfy, you might as well wear leggings. Skin tight, thin so not as bad when you sweat and chopped just before your ankles. Really, if you have no problem wearing girls jeans what's wrong with wearing leggings? Anyway, nasty picture. My eyes imploded.

Wicked. Like to see a video too. How long has she been riding?

Again?! I don't plan to stop just because it gets cold. I only just started in October and I am having too much fun. But I only ride when it's not too went, don't care about the sun!

coldness + riding = carry on riding, even more!

Awesome! I missed the drop by guildhall but it was huge! Woo! I'm in a video, only in the back though!

Nice vid! Please tell me what the song is called and by which artist/band!!

Image shack is pretty good too. You can upload more than one photo at a time and it can resize it for you automatically.

Jealousy +1. I don't know why, I ride a mod!

1, Yes they do work and are worth buying, IF you have them setup right. I have cams with teeths/notches, I wind it up as as tight as the chain can go with my hands, the chain should still be a bit loose still . I then get a pair of pliers, hold onto the cam and wind it up one more notch, this makes my chain nice and tight. Smooth cams are ok...but in my experience they slip. 2, Any cams with 10mm holes will work. I'm assuming your hub axle are 10mm sized. I'm using teethed trialtech ones. Cams go on the outside face of the dropouts on your 221, like in this pic. Link. Simple to put on and no need to take the wheel off. 3, If not, for some reason, which I can't think of any in your case (on your 221 pr). The alternative that I almost went with is to use the 74Kingz single speed tensioner, but you need a longer chain for it to work right. But then it would look odd on a mod.

Progressive Metal! Devil Sold His Soul. My favourite band!

Pompey please! I'm going home (soton) on the 12th, don't want to go twice in a week and back. XD

hahahaha! nuns..... what do you call a pack of chavs? pakis!

My favourite onza frame. Why do they go for so cheap?
