Been offered an Echo Control modstock frame and a mod 'King' for £150

Saw a Koxx levelboss at work today and just wondered who's it was since trials riders are few and far between

Tesco tubes, £1.64 I think, and they're Kenda

Unfortunately grinding rims is a technique specific to trials bikes, still a sport so small in the cycling world that most bike shops wouldnt entertain the thought of taking a grinder to the braking surface. Obviously there will be one or two shops with a resident trials rider, in my experience they are few and far between.
I work in an LBS and ours has at least 4 people who know how to grind a rim

Is part of it painted then I presume??

Yes

no but i was just wondering if it can be done without it so it saves ordering one
So go to your LBS?

What a weird thing to say...
Very creative riding and considering Euan's been riding less than two years (I think) he's progressing rally fast. Good stuff!
I don't think it's a bad video at all, I enjoyed the fact he was doing streety moves on a mod rather than just the usual TGS, and that drop off the rock
Suppose he's taken Danny Mac's style and gone at it in his own way, why not

Is it just me who thinks this is an out and out copy of danny macs videos?

And this is why you should never clean bearings or components with bearings in them with a pressure washer
All manuals tell you not to. -
went to do a bath bleed this evening, pulled lever back and it didn't return to it's normal position. Have bled with syringe but can't get the piston thing in the lever housing to move. Help please.
05+ Lever? I had this problem on thursday and i now have a brand spanking 2011 hs11 in front of me so..... :/

What geo would be best for doing streety and more flowy moves on a mod? I would get a 24" but I find they are to big to move about as I'm rather small.
Thanks Kieran.
A street mod? Is that not just a BMX?

Who is that guy with sky2? Is he realy sponsored by Red Bull?
Super sweet video
You can buy Red Bull helmets on Ebay

Have you set up the brake closely and squarly to the rim while the tpa was wound to the most negative? Like as guided here... Tarty rim brake set up guide
If not it will likely be air in the brake or getting in somewhere.
There probably is air getting in it, I think I'll just bath-bleed it
-
Sounds like the piston is pushed into the lever body and isnt coming out very far?
It was this, until i pulled the piston out some, but now you can feel that it is pushing the piston right from the off, however it isnt moving the pads much :/

Hi, I used to have to have my TPA wound right out, so that it would touch the piston in the lever, however this meant that I had no adjustment in my brake and it kept stripping TPA's
Earlier today i tried pulling the piston right out, to no avail
It did however come out enough for the TPA to touch when it was wound in. But now I have the issue that when I pull my lever it comes right into the bar as each piston only moves about 0.5-1mm out :/ Followed proper bleeding procedure with syringes, so it should have no air in the system. Can anyone help? Thanks, Alex -
Just threaded the frame on my monty where the maguras attach.What size helicoil repair kit should I be looking for? M4 to replace whats broke or M5 because the hole going to be bigger now its threaded?
Magura 4bolt mounts are M5 to start with.

Write with my right and ride with my left, and something some people find bizarre is I wear my watch on my right as well, don't know why it's weird but some people see it that way
Me too

Atomz rim has eyelets which are sort of a good thing.
Until they fall out

Definatley in the same way, as I didnt remove the slaves when I cleaned everything.
Pads came out, cleaned, and went back in.
Slaves are in exactly the same postion
You say you sanded the pads but adjusted nothing? Try the TPA?
