  1. I used maguras with evo adaptors for ages on my pashley mhz they are a little harder to set up than 4 bolt but I never had any strength issues with them
  2. Yes you can use magura evo adaptors and they are available from www.tartybikes.co.uk Hope this helps
  3. Hi does anyone know if you can get replacement rubber o-rings for heatsink backings, if so where could I get them. I have emailed heatsink but have had no reply. Thanks
  4. thanks for that mate how long should i leave it
  5. You have to wait to be validated to post in the forsale section.
  6. Right I have a wheel that has been painted over the annodising, it has been proffesionally painted and is very thick. What i want to know is, how do I remove the paint but not the annodising. I have tried sanding a small bit but it would take forever to do the whole rim. Thanks in advance for your help
  7. I've tryed looking on that site but it just comes up with a list of different shops to compare, can you post a link?
  8. If you get the stif link in your hands just twist it side to side and it will free up, hows the tensioner and booster suiting you mate
  9. Have a look at the wiki mate it has a good bit on frame sparaying, i have just finished respraying my frame and forks and it is holding up well. if you can strip the part back to bare metal that seems to work best, then make sure the surface you are painting has a rough surface( use coarse sand paper) After it is ready to paint give it 2-3 coats of primer ( use thin layers) When you finally get round to applying the paint, again lots of thin layers is better than one thick one and make sure you allow plenty of time to harden between each coat. Try your local auto shop for the spray paint they have a much better range of colours and is normally alot cheaper than b&q, i think my cans were 4 quid each and i used 3. Hope this helps
  10. I completely understand that there are people out there who cant be arsed and would happily play the dyslexic card, but for people who actually do have this problem, thinking and worrying about where full stops and commas go can be quite frustrating and often only makes matters worse. But i completely understand the reason for the rules as i hate all the text talk and other crap that some people type. There is no excuse for not using the queens english, to the best of your mental abilety
  11. what about people who are dyslexic and find it difficult to spell and use full stops at the right times e.t.c. like myself I try my best best but some times what looks fine to me is completely wrong
