  1. Another vote for the Try-all Hole/Rockman rim. Had mine for a while now, nice 'n' light, holds a grind well. Running mine now with a sticky-light rear tyre and standard tube and had no issues at all with punctures.
  2. Joe Seddon (onza team rider) is running one on his new proto stock and really likes it. Having played around on his bike for a good while yesterday i can say i definitely say i like the feel of it. Also like the positioning of the TPA - it can be adjusted 'on the fly' which is nice.

  6. Pretty sure all the Sea-side town town stuff was filmed in North Berwick. Which is where my dad grew up and grandparents still live. Going up there in afew weeks for my grandad's birthday, after seeing that, pretty damn sure i'll be taking my bike up too In regards to the actual video - PERFECTION
  7. Oh FFS. Right. First off - No; Coustsinks are NOT the same compound as 'real cousts' and i doubt your mate has real ones. Its the coustellier's dad who makes the real pads and they are only available through him. However, coustsinks are still really great pads, I love them and swear by them. What rim are you using? I have just changed from a VIZ! rim because it held a grind for all of 10mins before going to shit. Now running a Try-All HOLE rim and love it. Brake? maggies and vees perform differently with certain pads. Grind? sharp? light? harsh? smooth? Pads set square? Bleed sorted? Need a booster? DONT USE TAR. A decent grind performs so much better than that black crap any day.

  11. Good, he's had my helmet since the Bransgore play day. Have been using my mums recently!
  12. I use the wheelpro spoke calculator. If you're still unsure then just ring Tarty. I got two differing results from wheelpro and DT swiss so rang Tarty, turned out wheelpro was correct

  17. Yeh thats why i kept them to differing paragraphs. In just rain (not too cold) id rather just wet hands. Wet and/or freezing mornings i'd deal with the sweaty hands to keep the feeling in them, should've made that clearer in my first post
  18. My view on the water-proof gloves is similar to that of waterproof socks. Chances are on your commute you'll sweat, and due to the lack of breathable material your hands/feet will just stew instead. Id rather wet hands through a good soaking than from sweaty palms. However, that kinda just covers the wet and not the fact that as winter progresses it get bloody cold. My way, same as always, put on some latex gloves under your normal gloves. Yes your hands will sweat quite badly, but at least you'l be able to feel 'em. Or ignore the bike and drive that swanky-b*****d Audi of yours.
  19. Since everybastard from where i live has moved to plymouth im down there on a semi-regular basis for some rides. As said, just keep an eye out on the rides thread and post up if your out for a ride and someones usually around for a roll about
