  1. I envy your rotting pallets, All I have outside my bedroom window is Shipley glen and Addingham moorside (bummer)
  2. What's your facebook name Ill add you onto the ride, Also I think Barry Clay and a few of his friends are coming it might be worth you talking to them. Failing that I think there are a few more southerly riders drive past your area if your stuck for a lift Ill talk to a couple of those riders for you
  3. Nope its my choice of head decoration while riding its currently in Leeds
  4. Josh impressed me at his fixing Kyle's chain stay, Take a look on there facebook. Awesome work!!
  5. Banana (Scary things can happen around a banana)
  6. Your not loosing anything by trying, What is the frame btw?
  7. No bash ring? Living life on the edge... Loving the bike (not the seat)
  8. Well someone just made my night! Thanks
  9. I'm sorry I did not make my question clear, I'll try again. (Message aimed at Tartybike's) Usually on Tartybikes.co.uk website a frame is measured by them using Echo urban forks, Presuming they use the same geo fork each time, I was interested in what the geo of the new Hex frame is measured using this standard method. I am presuming the Hex geo on the website is measured with the inspired fork as its the same as the full build geo.
  10. Thank's F, had to be the coldest night I've had in a while could see my own fart's.
  11. Out of interest, what would the geo be measured with Echo forks?
  12. Where about's you from? Your best Via Facebook if you want to ride Leeds ask Sam kidney or his following (brother)
  13. Vertical drop outs mean riders from all different back grounds and styles can choose which Gearing they prefer and run it with a tensioner, Being that the 18/15 gear ratio is in a minority with these frames there is no point in the change. They should make the rear end 380 mm though (Take note inspired) Also I'm pretty sure this will invalid your warranty for those who are at all bothered
  14. My Point was not regarding your crank's, I simply meant you don't have to run a freewheel to run 18/15. My method still works regardless which of the three gear ratio's you go with and will take out the factor of chain stretch being a problem, When I get chance over the weekend if you would like I will upload some pictures of how easy it is to do. It also means my rear end on my hex is 380mm rather than 385 which I think most of the forum would prefer
  15. 18/15 is 18/15 regardless of free wheel or rear freehub
  16. I cheated, I filed 5mm into each drop out (towards the Bottom bracket) Then put a bolt through the bolt that holds the mech in place, and currently running a snail cam to tension my chain. Working a treat and can pretty much do this with any gearing you need, might not have to file as much depending on your ratio. Also my brake still lines up without any problems and my tyre clearance is good also. I got the Idea off a friend who has done the very same thing (only without the snail cam) on his foreplay Edit: I run 18/15 on my set-up Hope this helps
  17. Also so there is no confusion amongst the forum as there clearly was via Facebook. Sheffield 02 arena is located in Sheffield (I know it may be hard to believe for some of you, I can assure you were not pulling your leg)
