  1. I managed to half cover mine with what was left of my VW black can so will probably get them coated now anyway. Hopefully be able to get a cheap deal as I'm not that fussed on the colour as long as it's dark so they can go in with whatever else the shop is coating at the time! Anyway, I want to see pics of the V2. Have you gone with simply bending the top bar to make them out of 3 pieces? I've not used mine much yet, I can go from a L sit round into a hand stand but not straighten my arms out yet. Need a lot more practice at that and been building my confidence up at kicking up into a handstand against a wall, that seriously freaks me out at the moment especially as I usually have to do it without any assistance. Another basic according to my book to work on is planches and frog stands to work on wrist flexion and strength which is hard going but I'll get there!
  2. Powder coaters??!! What happened to them just needing a quick spray over!!
  3. He did a good job of Tipexing the word Trial in a completely random position
  4. I don't think street trials has taken over, just more street riders video themselves than others
  5. Blackpool yesterday, was so windy and wet there was pretty much only one place I could find on the front sheltered enough to stay upright on, I would have had quite a few more shots but the wind kept blowing the camera over. Felt good to be on a bike though and I'm glad I took my DD mod as the brakes were amazing all day!
  6. Did it in 2hrs 14min as she was running with a guy who runs our local gym and pretty much had to kick him up the arse the last 2 miles as he kept walking. Reckon she could have easily done 1hr 45min if she was running alone as her pace was down by nearly 2 minutes a mile.
  7. So, 50mph gusts on Blackpool North shore today. Still managed a bit of riding though, thank god for the grip on those moon rocks!
  8. I was with Jolfa after seeing the pics on the floor but on the car I think they look good
  9. In Blackpool to see the wife do a half marathon and the weather is unbelievable, even by Blackpool's standards. Also, I've never been anywhere with so much dog shit on the floor before! (assuming it is dog....)
  10. No, I mean the nut on the end. Can't see what purpose it serves being fitted whatsoever. The bolts you linked aren't the right ones as there's no need for the nut though that's not to say they won't fit.
  11. Actually looking again I'm not sure what's going on with your setup? The idea is the bolt I linked to screws through the dropout, I can't understand why the one on yours has a nut on the end though unless it's welded to the bolt in the frame?
  12. This should be what you need http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/steel_bolts/onza_m6_integrated_tensioner_replacement_bolt/c523p12050.html
  13. That's a bodge, bare with me and I'll try to find a link to the proper bolt you need
  14. 3:17 over rail to up wall was tidy
  15. Wife's doing Blackpool half on Sunday, I'm hoping the weather's half decent as I'm taking a bike to play on whilst I wait for her!
  16. @Adam@TartyBikes is the man ( @Cap's handiwork with my brakes is also commendable!)
  17. Feel like I'm gonna explode, had two roast beef dinners followed by three generous servings of my birthday pavlova.
  18. Yeah I use powder but sacked off MP in favour of GoNutrition. Run by the guy who set up MP years ago and from what I've had so far much better supplements.
  19. Right, had a sort and can't find a mount to suit so I've ordered a Hope!
  20. Could need a tighten, might need a new bottom bracket which you'll pick up for under £50
