  1. not up to much this sunday so is anyone up for a ride in swindon or near by ? will be my first ride so dont exspect much but i will try my hardest and i want to learn some more things aswell. send me a text (07875506622) or add me on msn and have a speek.

    Alright buddy might be up for a blast!! where abouts in swindon?

  2. Sort of place it'd crack from over tightening. Could be shitty material though.

    The crack on my mount happened when we had the real cold weather. i think it was the cold that caused it to crack!

    I now use the magura mounts with the metal inserts and i cant tell the difference. apart from the color not being red :(

  3. so where do i go from here?

    Payment would have been instant!!

    what he is waiting for is it to clear to his bank account!

    that can take up to 14 days..

    he might need the money to clear to cover the postage cost..

    you payed with paypal so relax, at the worst you can claim back for not having recived the goods.

    shame he could not tell you this though (N)

  4. Am i not alone? It's dam anoying. Does it on every page, topic, section etc.

    Windows 8

    Windows 7

    Vista

    Xp

    OSX

    Lepoard

    Snow

    iPhone

    Safri

    Firefox

    Opera

    Chrome (OS & IE)

    All have the issues as that whats used at work and home

    All my computers work even going back to my old windows 95.

    the only one that plays up is the mac book but not the end of the world as there are so many other works OS out there! :S

    one thing it could be down to is your computers are set not to store any browser history so to click on the back function would take you to a connection error page!

    Maybe somebody on a computer forum could help you, as not really anybody else on TF have the problem. its just you and your world of computer that you have!

  5. Hello

    i am pretty new to paypal

    i paid for an item last night, and also one on friday daytime

    the payments are registered as complete on paypal

    but it does not appear to have debitted my bank account, the balance is still the same

    whats going on?

    was it an echeque? if so it will take 7 working days to complete.

    normal payment will work like a debit/credit card and will take 2/3 working days to show.

    you will recive a complete payment from paypal and a invoice from the seller to confirm all is ok.

    if you have that just sit back and await your new toys :P

  6. His address would have been confirmed by paypal! is that the address you used?

    he needs to give you time to speak to the post office and needs to wait 14 working days.

    he can put a paypal dispute to cover his money being refunded. but if he does a charge back you can claim he has scammed you, and lied about not getting the forks .

    tell him to dispute!! safe for the both of you.

    As said above always use recorded it cost 75pence more and it covers you almost 100%

  7. Did the salt bath for 5 mins, seems a little more active. I'll do that every day and see what happens.

    poor fish :angry:

    you would be active too if you had a cut and had it stuck in salt water.

    must be in pain. was it with other fish? looks like a bite. or as said above fish rape :giggle:

    this link is good. http://www.afbini.gov.uk/adds-fishulcerdiseasedec05.pdf look at the treatment part.

    i tried with my fish and the salt bath failed with both bites and ulcers, he needs a vet for antibiotics.

  8. I rode MTB brfore I got into trials, never reaced, but still I rode 4x, a bit of DH and a bit of XC. It takes a little while to get used to but you should learn quicker than people who have no experience at all. The skills you learn may also improve your ability on MTB.

    I ride all sorts have a DH bike getting an xc bike and ride trials its all good fun. i find trials helps with the DH tech stuff it opens new lines and stuff.

    It will be strange going from 26" to 20" i found it had going from 26" to 24" but you will get used to it the more you ride B) i ride both now and never have a problem

  9. Really, ever tried a trial mono brake on the rear? set up right with the right pads theyre pretty powerful!

    On a mod, disks are awsome! I prefer HS33's though, not as much chace of snagging the disk as there isn't one! plus hs33's have awsome power and modulation with the right pad types. I say HS33 all th way mate! Toby

    Thats what i used :P

  10. Pros and Cons would be helpful.

    I used to run disc to start (hope mono) but found the response to breaking slow unless i had a massive rotor on 203mm, it solved my breaking power but not the fact i had a 2nd wheel and kept smacking the rotor on anything that came my way. :o

    Hs33 is the way forward its powerful is out the way and is much less effort to set up!

    Hs33 cost less more pad options

    disc good in muddy conditions and on the dh track :P

  11. The only thing I can think of now is that your frame is flexing shit loads when you pull the brake hard. The twisting motion of the wheel trying to pull through might just have caused your clamps to crack. That's all I can think of.

    You might be right. not sure how much flex there is on a leeson 24 to me it feels pretty solid back there.. i guess we will never know.

    I have just sent for a new set and hope that this time all will be good :D

  12. When you do get new clamps try using 2-3mm of insulating tape instead of the plastic washers. you wont have to do the clamps up quite as tight, and once they've been done up the tape moulds itself to the clamps so that the slaves wont move.

    Even if i use the metal shims??
