  1. I'm shit at gaps which is why i know exactly what you are doing wrong. You need to be closer to the edge on preload, when you preload the tyre/wheel will fold over the edge. When you kick this will make your effort spring you forward. This advice, although coming from me here, is from various shit hot riders telling me over and over again, cos I just don't get it lolz.
  2. gays, I would take it back out of principal, at the end of the day you can get any hub you want off of the internet
  3. Just saw this, it's very sad people shouldn't die at work ever.
  4. got any numbers on it or do you have a vernier? click me
  5. I think I saw Rowan Johns riding one with a seat a while back, I could be wrong though.
  6. I know he's a fanny, it's lush

    No it isn't wrong, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
  8. Sand blasting will make the frame more prone to cracking. It can and will introduce the dreaded stress risers. People get shot peening and sand blasting mixed up. do what you want though dude, I'm just letting you know.
  9. what you want the thick oil for? those bars are heavy.
  10. It could be your spokes flexing. Thats why people like maggies so much, no wheel flex. Changeing from a good rim brake, cough cough vee brake, to disk is a bit sloppy felling at first.
  11. got a screw in one if you can be arsed to tap yer frame.
  12. I like the vintage look. Hope it is small in size (but not content) so you could take it with you?
  13. You deffinately made awesome! Love it!
  14. ok I have done it (its on a full suss with full lockout front and back so shouldnt suck to much on the ups,) went for a blast around the town was ok, thought my lungs were gonna explode on one hill because I forgot about the lock out, will try it out in the woods tomorrow.
  15. Ah cool I have an 18t sproket, did you stick with it dude? how do you find running single speed?
  16. Forgot to mention, I only used 1 cam on the drive side.
  17. If you were going to build a single speed MTB what gear ratio would you use?
