Riding Newcastle in 2006 and my mate Johnny Wood saying to me ' did you see Danny do thst 11 foot drop?'
I reply 'onto what?'
Johnny replies ' eh the ground'
I still laugh when i think about that.

Yeah the three trials riders there are Ben Travis, Towler and Ross Mcarthur, so you wont be missing to much! lol

I used to work for a shop that imported I9, they were a nightmare to deal with- normally 3 month lead time on parts, and if it was a custom colour they would arrive when they did! ( The guys that ran it were so laid back!!)
I9 claim that the freehub can withstand over 700 ft/ lbs of torque but i found that because they had an alu axle the axle could flex, causing the freehub to skip.
They are georgeous though and i wouldn't hessiatate having a pair on an xc / free ride or dh rig!

My back grden was next to that grave yard with the dry walls.

sweet! that spot has a good wee wall ride there, wrong side for me though

So the KBMs (Travis you name stealing b*****d ) all come with backings with "Beleay" engraved on them, or is that just Pro rider pimp'ness?
If thats the case i want to start a petition to get greenhalgh on the rears of lgm's!
lol

however the point at which the chamfer is the same surface area as a standard square pad, there will be no usable pad anyway. so essentially le is suggesting more 'power' than a standard square pad. also due to the nature in which a standard pad becomes mis shapen (rounding corners etc) then even more power in the new KBM's compared to a standard shaped pad...possibly?
ill wait to try some. however the LGMs are amazing anyway, so this new material will have to be something special.
EDIT: i love the way kenny has his name engraved on his backings. awesome. plus extra weight saving
Gutted, i wish they had kenny engraved on the back, i'd buy another pair just for that:)

hey man, that the stem that stan and mark use, i think they use the 80mm x 20 that is a good wee streety feeling setup.

I'd agree with Matt Burrows. Reba would be first choice. Recon after that. Similar forks but the Reba is air sprung over an actual spring in the Recon. Air being lighter and offering control in how it feels.
Tora is heavy with little rebound control Pikes are stupid for XC, far too heavy. Revelation again wouldn't be as good as the Reba for XC.
Rockshock Reba will handle any trail centre or natural XC ride you kind find without being heavy.
I tought this kid everything he knows! lol
I am with Timmy's view, i personally find the reba's a little flexy, but they are more xc and i'm a big boy!
I would look away from rock shox, i have noticed some fox forks selling for quite good prices recently, some marzocchi's are pretty darn good, and i think manitou are getting thie act together.
My bit of advice is unless you are going for a dirt jump fork, do not buy the forks that have the plated silver stanctions as the are made for various brands by suntour, and they are a cheap sprung fork.
I have apair of marzocchi's Shivers on my dirt jump bike( flex like hell) and they have performed for years without an issue and only a couple of services.And on my xc bike i have a pair of Float 32 RL's they are great, loads of adjustment and not put a foot wrong, i think i will get he qr15 model next as this does stiffen up the front loads without gaining weight.

Funny you say that, I'm staring at my old 26mhz team frame..Only issue is its a Vbrake mounts...Kinda want to run disks.
Man, those frames are sweet!
running discs are a good choice if you want to go 24 check out the echo frames or czar they come with disc mounts....

Been thinking Inspired, or really a black market or NS Majesty build. Street/Park/DJ.
Yeah, it makes a bit sence, you need to find an old pashley like what we used to ride back in the day, that would do the job!
(remembers the green one with the 4 bolt mounts and was it shortned?)
