  1. As title says, are there any older riders in the canterbury area.

    Ive just started riding again and would like some peeps to go with. Is it a big scene down this way, i dont see many tials riders when im out and about.

    Im Bein picky now lol, but i want to learn from someone lol.

    Hey man, I live down the road in Maragate I'm learning still aswell. Mabey go for a ride some time?

  2. HI

    I run a rear maggy hs33, it tends to slip a bit when i'm up on the back wheel.

    I was thinking of grinding the rim, but I don't really have the tools or the money to replace the rim if I go wrong.

    A friend of mine suggested using very fine sand paper as it does the same job. Does it?

    What should I do? buy tar; use sand paper; get some one else to grind it for me; buy new pads?

    What do you guys do? And what combinations of grinds and pads and things do you use

    Thanks guys

  3. Hi there, one piston on my rear maggy doesn't work propperly. The piston that has both the hose from the lever and crossover doesn't move propperly, however if i twist the tpa all the way in it does move a tiny bit. How do i fix it?

    thanks a bundle everyone

  4. I ride a stock with a shimano deore freewheel hub that currently has an 8 speed road bike cassette at the moment. I want to change it to a single, whats the best way to do it? Do i need a tensioner? If so what sort etc...

    What parts do i need to buy, and where is the best place to buy from aswell?

    So all in all i need oppinions on the best way to go single, and where to get the parts from?

    cheers everyone

  5. I am 6ft2" and 11 stone, about a month and a half ago I purchased a 26" onza t-raptor thinking that due to my height I thought I would be better off with larger wheels. I have since rode with some friends who all ride mods, I had a go on one and found it to be much easier to ride. my t-raptor will take a 24" wheel, can I have some of your opinions on whether or not to buy a set of 24" rims or buy a new bike with 20" wheels alternatively I could keep a 26" wheel on it.

    Let me know what you all think?

    cheers guys

  6. Sounds good buddy I should be free most of next week, just let me know when your free and where you can/want to ride and we can sort something out. Sorry i can't get out to you by the way but a shortage of funds limits my mobility.
