It's better when people show their own bikes, fishing for compliments is the last thing I'd want. It's just nice to scroll down a page and see what people on this forum ride. And before you say about the bike pictures page in general is there imean on one page and it can be somebody's bike from years ago. This is not a dig by any means as there are some people out there that are how you say fishing for compliments

well after making a safe bike to ride I got to work on some videoing after a 6 month break from riding and i'm enjoying it again minimal editing due to cruddy computer and lack of editing skills https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=km37Z1zNd0Q&feature=youtu.be

I would usually feel 100% bad for anybody that has a bike nicked but surely he can just laugh it off and be sent a new one pretty soon? It's shit if he's got to use another bike for demos or cancell them. I wouldn't be that bothered if I was him

Crank clearence looks normal, as long as theres a 8-10mm+ gap between the crank and closest point of contact with it (usually the chainstay or magura slave) should be fine. The crank bolts are always like that, you could get some spacers that fit over the bolt thread and inside the crank but its faffing about if you haven't got any spacers handy plus they'll be threaded in less in your bb so more chance of strippage

Id say a 47 be spot on, i use 46 and im a size 12usa

its his old parts aha

cheers and yea its best to get them perfect so that the stem doesn't rip off!

Built this up on weekend Maestro frame Try-all v1 forks Rockman stem and handlebars Trial-tech lite bb Try-all cranks Echo tr hubs Try-all front rim Onza rear rim Magura race lines, front and rear coust pads Echo tr brake clamps kenda 8 block front tyre and big betty rear Trial-tech pedals 8.6kg

Yea but its lighter

I had to use screws in my helmet because i accidently cut through some plastic when i modified it

my new video, isn't the best but glad to just be in the game still G

really good to see you back riding after that fall in 2011. video was good, nice smooth controlled

if you put the other crank and pedal on it might be more like 8kg

front tyres the only thing i'd change! everything else is nice

use some old handlebars to tighten the cranks up

thanks it actually weighs just under 9kg soo good weigh calculations and it rides a bit face down arse up even with the mod stem and a 10mm spacer. the bb height takes a bit of getting used to, for me anyway

use a bread knife or flappy pad disc

510's seem to take more of a beating for us leftys than the 610's

2.4 rubber queen or the der kaiser and run a 180-200gram tube in either

i have a bike with brakes now so should be there

was good bike that, proppa dime to ride

washing machine then in the tumble dryer works the best

yes but you've got a 108 engagement ffw thats skipped, the chances are the pawls can be rounded? i used sl ones as they were like new, but yea if you've got decent un-rounded pawls job should be a good one

yes i've put sl springs and pawls in a tt ffw, reason i put the pawls in was because the tt ones had rounded. works alot better but u want to use a sl outer aswell as sl springs and pawls, use the sl shims and lockring two and even the bearings, i believe everything but the sl body on a trial-tech body is win....................
