  1. f**k me, its just a water bottle. Boo Hoo, its cheep and it leaks - surprised? Stop crying
  2. My Rockman Slate 3 was by far the nicest riding frame i've had.
  3. Urbans are flexy as f**k. Go for Trialtechs
  4. Couple of vids following Vince on 20" and mainly Gilles on 26" The quality is pretty crap, just to pre-warn you :wink2:
  5. For anyone who missed it earlier - here is the live coverage from today Commentated by Andrei Burton
  6. Unreal riding, huge effort from Kenny with his arm - could see how hard he was fighting the pain
  7. I take it you don't want to run a front brake? They will fit, but it will feel gash
  8. Get him to sign up here: http://www.facebook.com/groups/114673561963415/
  9. I'm the complete opposite. I had a my spanking new Onza Limey 4 stolen afew weeks back and its still out there somewhere. All 3 people have been caught and are in court this week but unfortunately the bike hasn't been recovered. To be honest I couldn't give a f**k whether they get charged/punished at all - it makes no difference to me. All I want is my bike back. Its not like if they are charged they'll go to jail, or even change who they are in the slightest.
  10. In response to what Trialprod are like as a shop - they're great. I've dealt with them on 3 or 4 occasions now and they have always been spot on. Delivery is always within the week and prices are pretty good too

    K124 Days 2012

    Music is awful, riding is amazing
  12. Hi guys, Both mine and Joe Seddon's bikes were stolen from his car in Taunton on Friday night. These are both top end, full competition spec bikes Below is a picture of Joe's bike, the only difference being that since the picture was taken, it now has black '05 maggies on it and silver cranks. Mine is almost identical, other than having black Rockman 4-bolt forks, black Rockman stem, a black wheelset and silver Echo SL cranks. The Police were round here yesterday taking prints and swabs off the car and we should hear back soon if there are any matches. These are the only 2 Limey 4's in the Southwest right now! Please keep an eye/ear out and if you hear anything let me know Cheers guys Josh UPDATE! As many of you will know Joe's bike was recovered by me within the week of it being taken. Since then there has been pretty much no sign of my bike other than a call from a mate telling me he saw someone on it about a month ago. On Wednesday the Police arrested someone on an unrelated drugs charge and my bike was found at the address! The only thing missing was the sloping topcap and the only damage was that the front brake hose was ripped out. A massive thanks is due to Mark @ tartybikes who re-sent me all my order confirmations as proof of purchase for the majority of the parts on the bike. I picked the bike up on Thursday evening and its now safe in the triple padlocked shed! Sometimes, good things happen Cheers Josh

    Spoke Key..?

    Spokey red. The metal inserts grip the inserts from all 4 sides, which is ideal especially if you use alloy nipples
  14. Frame looks great Only thing that looks a bit odd is that the back of the cranks is still black while the front is shiny shiny
  15. Awesome video, Joe and Andrew are stepping it up right now
  16. I work for SJS Cycles and am the person on the end of the Sales@ e-mail address and you'd be amazed at some of the obvious questions people ask! Its just part of working in a large, mail order bike shop
  17. I like short mods, Koxx White Skys are the nicest riding mods EVER Stock i like long-ish, 1080-1090wb so long as they have decent bb rise. I loved my old Echo control short, but that only had a +20 bb I'm now riding a +70bb with 1090 WB
  18. 7.87! I mean 7.87?! Love it!

    Titanium Bb

    Because the BB is the most central part of the bike, it makes the least ammount of differnce to how it rides. You could replace your BB with one that weighed nothing, and the bike would still ride exactly the same. You are really worth spending more on your wheels/tyres as these make the most differece to how a bike 'feels' with regards to weight.
  20. I've had a play on a few Zhi Z3R frame and I just can't get on with them They feel as though they are just a little too short for their BB rise - though that may be because i've not ridden one with a mod stem fitted, which i think they'd benefit from I've got a new Limey 4 arriving today/tomorrow so will having fun getting used to that once i've stripped it of its nasty nasty paint job!

    K-124 Days

    Naa, if it was still at Buthiers i'd be going. Having said that, i've just been reading through the programme for this year and the second round at the new K124 land sounds cool. The pictures I posted up a while back of it in development looked promising so it'll be cool to see it all finished and being ridden
