  1. I know 2 people who running hope sqewers had loads of trouble with their wheels moving, while my shimano sqewers were fine. :(
  2. Technology has been around for years Ali, but there were people on here who thought that the air would "burp" out of the sidewalls
  3. I think I joined to the second one of those TF links, when did glasgow trials actually join up with TF?
  4. I had lost an end plate, but I got a new one when I was in Notts and I know bb is fine because the new cranks sorted the problem out. :( I checked the bb for damage anyway. :S
  5. Tomm, it's been around for years, just not been used for trials, I considered it at the begining of last summer and had thought about it before that. And Mike, you lose barely any air, we're talkin for a nail not even one psi in a big chamber tyre. :(
  6. Or you just learn to put your feet in a decent position on the pedals. I have size 13 shoes, and I have no bother at all, and I like to have my feet in close too. (Y)
  7. Not broken mine yet, and I bent the bolts in me tensiles backwards.
  8. It's 20 years, once 20 years is up its fair game and that patent was originally applied for in 1985 (Y)"
  9. Yeh but then you'd lose that "bounce" you get from thick tyres, also megablasters aren't meant to be too grippy.
  10. I dunno, what do they say??? (Y)
  11. Well, I have made countless mates through ridin, we're talking 50+, buth through trials I'd say I've made 10 or I've ridden with. Also chat with a few people off here. All trials riders are sound, bar like 2. (Y)
  12. Pinches have been reported on these tubeless tyres, on super skinny XC tyres at very high speed, on very square rocks, it is not going to happen on a big mofo DH tyre. (Y)
  13. Well the cranks started flexing something shocking, and the arms were fine, pedals were fine, bb was fine only thing it could have been really. But if you say it wasn't I'll take your word for it mr "I know all about trials". (Y) (Y) And the fact the cranks lasted over a year with me on them really impresses me, a set of gayativs lasted me one month on the trials bike, and I killed 3 in 3 months on me jump bike, twisted arms on one set, and f**ked the inserts, inserts actually came out of one of em and the 3rd set started flexing really badly. (Y) I say they are the best cranks I've ever ridden, go get some you will not be dissapointed in the least. (Y)
  14. Well I'm a freak then, the pedal inserts started creaking and flexing(yes they were tight). I twisted all the chainring bolts backwards, but I'm a size 13 and I have had no trouble with my shoes. I got a new set under crash replacement. (Y) Top cranks (Y) Go buy some. (Y)
  15. From the inside of the curve to the end of the threads I believe. Your LBS should have a spoke measuring tool. (Y) (Y)" (Y)
  16. That is f**king stupid. :ermm:
  17. Carbon Lorraine pads are supposed to be good
  18. ScotchDave

    New Hub

    How many engagements has that got then and is it the standard 3 pawl system we all know and love?
  19. Ah, sorry. :"> Anyway, whoever does the designs, tell them they're f**king brillyunt. :ermm:
  20. How about pouring in cold weld. EDIT As in pouring cold weld into freehub, fixing the freehub with the pawls engaged and leaving it for a f**king long time.
  21. A conti, superlight tyre.
  22. Well, swimming, running, rugby, trials, street riding, dh, jumping and it looks like I might be trying american footy soon.
  23. No I have NEVER ever used anything but maggie oil in a maggie n it was shite, so now i use v's. :blink:
  24. ah ok, I thought dave was doing alot of the design for onza now. :">
  25. Ah, very clever, is that one of Dave's ideas?
