  1. I wasnt suggesting that you were trying to mimic him, was merely a comment. I love your riding style, very individual and smooth. Never meant to offend! Good riding mate
  2. I hadn't noticed the helmet to be honest. Just your riding in general is similar. Me likey
  3. Think its been said before but your style reminds me sooo much of Craig Lee Scott. Particularly like the sidehops. Bike looks pretty swish too in that colour!
  4. It looks almost new! Miles better looking with out the bash plate mate. Glad the booster, bolts/washers, pads and piston please Ride soon!
  5. Regarding bleeding, a mate of mine found that to get the best bath bleed, he would bleed to brake with one bleed screw still in one slave until no air came out, screw the open port in again, and then bleed through again with the other slave open. Just removes the air from the two seperate lines to each slave. I hope this makes sense
  6. Which will be very soon.... Your piston is on its way Dan!
  7. Will definatelly be the threaded length mate. Ive got some down stairs and they measure 25mm from the base of the head to the end of the threaded section.
  8. No worries I always remember it by "If the allen size is 5mm, the thread size is one up" Works for standard bolts only though haha.
  9. M6 Bolts mate. M5x25's are the bolts used in your bikes brake mounts M6x25 or M6X30 are the ones you will want to be using in your stem, steerer clamp and bar clamp
  10. Very rarely, and if we ever do it always tends to be one person in the group that thinks he should act the big man and give shit back that provokes it. What the person is actually doing is giving us all a negative label on which others stereotype us for, when more than often we are all genuinely polite and considerate people. You respect others, they'l respect you. Not a dig at any of you mind, just putting across my opinion
  11. If trialtech did their fork in a 24 version (pretty much welding the magura mounts lower down), he would be the perfect rider to test the durability of the fork. He's a machine!
  12. Looking good dan! Il get that piston in the post tomorrow mate! Forgot to take it with me today. Looking forward to riding mate
  13. No need to. As of tonight he has one sorted.
  14. Im easy mate. Anything really, just looking to get you sorted Will get it sent out for you tomorrow mate
  15. So this is another Echo freewheel? How do the internals seem ads?
  16. Dan! Ive found the one Ive got! Il see If I can nip to the post office tomorrow and send it off should one wish to accept? All I ask in return is a tasty beverage on a ride sometime?
  17. When the Ice dies, Im getting one. I LOVE that!
  18. In the same way that most companies introduce and release next years models late in the year? Like Echo. Fairly sure I remember seeing the Images of the 20", 24" and 26" 2011 frames and full builds in November/December of 2010. Jus' sayin. Again like all the Previous Zoo! Frames having the same finish right the way from 2004 (or earlier?) to, well, now. Just because it has the same finish doesn't mean its going to be the same years model.
  19. Oh, Ive also tried grinding my rims with a fresh'ishh diamond cutting disc. The thin ones. Uber sharp grind. Would be ideal for the LGM pads. Will give it a testing out when my rims ready to be reground
  20. I found that my old Heatsinks varied massively from each refill. One would be good, the other not so good. Not what Id call consistant. Now running LGMs on the same rim. Properly good brake.
  21. Id go for the Hope if I were you. Mines around 3 years old and has only just started to need a rebleed and to give the pads/ disc a good clean. They just work, and do so brilliantly
