Leeds fest hopefully, waiting to see the lineup first... My Aunties best mates boyfriend or whatever buys tickets in bulk then sells closer to the date, so I'm gonna try haggle a deal off him..

You can machine down but not really worth it.. If you're that bothered talk to Danny Swindle he machined a pro2 down to 116mm

Thats going in my sig

Tell Ozzy I said hi xx EDIT: Bikes look nice too

Just get another 36h rim? I dont think its actually possible without the build being extremely weak

I know a few people who've been putting them through there paces... And he's a beginner, the Manus is a pretty serious comp frame, he's just gonna trash it straight away EDIT: Thanks Mark

I am led to believe so...

Looking good Mr. Bronz. Dunno your hours at work etc but I'm up at the glen Wednesday I think if you fancy it? Danny x

They are nice frames, look the part, ride amazing, but the quality's just not there. If I were you I'd get something similar geo, that you know is gunna be strong and last a long time, eg: Limey 320, possibly a speedrace... And as your a beginner ( I think I read this somewhere?) and your probably going to be doing some serious bashing, learning new moves, a Manus is definitely not going to last long.

We can to an extent... Its short, high, flicky... But yeah find out for yourself

We're not all lucky enough to have access to a milling machine But yeah, you'd have to have a pretty decent dremel to actually get anywhere, and for the cost you might as well just buy a new rim

I've rode 2, and they both felt amazing. The frames are absolutely rubbish quality though. They look the part, but are terribly manufactured, not tested for long enough if at all. I know a guy who's had his for less than a month, huge crack already, not even a hard rider, doesn't ride street etc... Another got his frame, the threads were knackered, another came saying Anus not Manus... Definitely not worth £420 of your hard earned cash.

not sure, but you'd have to cut every hole, then file the corners so there rounded, I'd just leave it to be honest, or buy a new rim if you're that bothered.

Dremel. Takes ageeeees

I needed to mod my Rockpads when I put them into Heatsink backings.. All it took was about a minute of filing

Yeah.. Pretty nice though

I thought it was blue! Course its red you douche

Thats really nice Although whenever I've seen a picture of one of your bikes, your tyres are always dirty

Think its something to do with gearing.... So you run an 18t freewheel on the rear, you gotta run like 22t upfront, weighs more, bigger sprocket looks ugly, lack of bashrings, catches frame etc. Then you run 12t sprocket on the rear, 18/16t upfront and theres loads of clearance, more bashrings and cranks available, lighter, better gearing..... Not sure though.

Yeah think I'm comin up too

Will have my new frame by then, and my back should be ok, so who's up for a ride? Harden or Glen? Would prefer glen to be honest but if anyone wants to go to Harden I'm not too fussed.... Let me know xx

Not coming now, comp next day...

Best looking GU I've seen, I think.. x

Yeah that's what I thought... Got a new frame this week anyways so shouldn't have no more problems. Doctor said to just rest it for a week or something and I'll be orite, and to keep taking ibuprofen and paracetamol before every ride, and during if I need to. xxx
