  1. Showed the original Danny vid to my mum the other day and found out I delivered a washing machine or fridge to his Aunts house on the island where my mum lives! Wish I'd known sooner, would have had a word when I met him at Sheffield in January!
  2. You should be fine with some p bones mate, they used to be the top forks to use years ago. If they're cheap enough I'd definately recommend them.
  3. Was lookin at the 20" really. As I'm gettin this zenith fixed an sprayed up the heavy tool will be made reduntant, was gonna rebuild it with oldskool bits as a 2nd ride but thought I'd get a mod instead an try an sell the heavy tools frame.
  4. Yeah thats the one, there was a 20" and 26" frame on ebay for £20 each but thought I'd give it a miss in the end. It was very ugly and I scoured the net trying to find something out about them but couldn't find a thing so thought they'd be not very good!
  5. Sent you my money matey! Will pm you my details.
  6. Superb, looking forward to seeing the designs!
  7. Just wondered if anyones had or used a GMP frame before? Im thinking of building up a mod as a second bike instead of the heavy tools and spotted one of these cheap so wondered if its worth getting as a starting point.
  8. Sadly can't use WMM with these cameras as they record in .MOV format and if you use WMM you don't get any sound on your movies, even if you overlay some music! Shame as well cause although its basic it does do a pretty good job!
  9. Sent my designs, look VERY basic but should hopefully give you an idea. By the way, hows the bike coming on??
  10. Will get a design done on my laptop this mornin as the work computers pants an get it emailed to you. Be very basic but should give you an idea of the look!
  11. What you think of the camera then mate? Quality aren't they for the size! What editing program do you use for the vid? I got Sony Vegas the other day but well can't get my head round any of it yet!!
  12. The same could be said for someone who is wearing a helmet but breaks their back and is paralysed for life. Just cause they're wearing a helmet doesn't justify me paying for them to live.
  13. Can you not stick a few more spacers under it or is the steerer tube already cut on the forks? Other than that you'll just have to find some bars with a big rise to make up the difference.
  14. Hope so, wanna get into up to fronts an stuff like that as never had owt like that when I rode years ago!
  15. Dying to get mine fixed up, really intrigued to see if and how my riding will improve going from an old heavy tools which is almost a 15" frame to a Zenith!
  16. Nah its alright cheers mate, there's an industry standard to what colours you can have powder coated so I've gotta pick out from them! Pain really but it be reet!
  17. Hopefully have mine goin in for powdercoating next week, doubt I can get it but would love it to be Honda Supersonic Blue!
  18. Yeah he used to have a bike shop near here but ended up closing down, got unlucky with a few things like a cut and shut ferrari, so is just selling all the old stock on ebay now. My cousin still uses one of those on his Azonic DS1 and I almost bought one the other week to be honest, don't think there's much difference in weight between this an the trialtech although its worth considering if you snap your bars can you get some standard size ones easily? If not it may be worth spending the extra and getting the trialtech and some oversize bars, at least you'd have the peace of mind which I did!
  19. Always a 2nd hand front disc for sale on here matey and if not check ebay. Usually go for about £20-£35 from what I've seen. As for the rear I've always used maggies so would advise the same!
  20. I think for things like road cyclists they should be compulsory as those guys can reach some pretty high speeds, my cousins husband took a corner too fast last weekend and crashed into a wall, think he was doing about 30 and ended up breaking a lot of bones but it could have been a lot worse. As for other forms of cycling, trials, downhill, cross country, I think it should be down to the rider themselves as they'll know their own limits on a bike and what they're gonna push themselves to do. If your just going down the odd main road to get between trails I dont think it need be compulsory, common sense should be used here.
  21. Not Mark Anthonys by any chance is it?? Just so you know if its the one I'm thinking of it doesn't take the current standard oversize bars so you'd have to source some older style ones.
  22. I'll deffo take a booster and maybe a bashring as well, working on the designs as we speak and I'll get some emailed over to you! EDIT: Been trying to design some on paint an its terrible so will leave it in your hands! After a booster with DiddyB routed out of it if possible? You'll probably have to see what would look better out of routed or just recessed lettering and the fonts your choice! Also a bashring like the tartys design one but instead of holes cut out again have D I D D Y B going round it? Also interested in the spacers or washers as well but I can get hold of the bolts.
  23. Nice one matey, just gotta wait for mech hanger to come in stock at tartys an I can get one ordered!
  24. A rock song thats a bit stop and start, AC\DC - Back In Black, job done!
