  1. They tested a similar theory on mythbusters with a rugby ball, and it made like 7 grams difference
  2. I.e, get a rockman if you ride like a pussy?
  3. Still got my original set of cousts from 2 and a half years ago, got at least 4mm of material on them
  4. No, ive got this thing...... its called taste......
  5. If thats true, then you know some DIRTY bitches
  6. worst case scenario: bashring on the bb : all the force goes directly through the bb/frame, and you'd destroy bb threads Bashring on cranks : you'll destroy the bottom bracket bearings So personally i'd use it on the cranks. A bottom bracket is cheaper than a new frame
  7. Looks nice. What's the idea with the chain tensioner and horizontal dropouts? to slam the wheel?
  8. Just cut it down, drill some holes in her, she'll be pimpin
  9. I've never had an issue with the older tpa's;Just keep it well greased, and don't wind it completely out!
  10. I agree with you, but at the end of the day, its brads choice
  11. # You should have said, ive got the original gold one! http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/topic/175381-forks-tyres-bars-cranks/page__p__2422094#entry2422094
  12. Sounds about right. IMO the only improvement the new Magura's have are split clamps.
  13. Considering 'plastic' is a really generic name for synthetic or semi-synthetic organic solids that are moldable, doesn't that mean that plastic could be a composite, or the composite could contain plastic?
  14. You're clearly doing something wrong
  15. and you cant f**k up magura's with failed sidehops/statics
  16. They dont slip for fun. They slip when they're badly set up, simple as.
  17. She only got 9.8 and silver for that! Even the crowd boo'd the judges
  18. First time was around the brake mounts (where they're welded to the frame). The second time was around the weld on the bash plate mount (Never ran a bash plate!). If i ever rode mod again, id properly go for the Prototype onza have at the minute. its basically a Blade with a built in booster, no bash mounts and internal headset
  19. They're lovely frames (even though ive cracked 2 of them), i couldnt run one without a booster though, flexy flexy
  20. Love it how she tries to interview him and he couldnt give a toss :L I know i wouldnt have been that polite :L where she asked for him to show some of the stuff, he should have just walked up to the camera and said: If you wanted to see us ride, you shouldnt have f**king cut us!
  21. I know insurance companies usually charge 20-30% extra for paying monthly, the extra £100 could be admin charges? Im not sure, its all a f**king con. to be honest i dont blame most people for driving without insurance, when it ends up like this
  22. That looks like someones just jammed a washer on the splines, maybe because the crank was worn on the splines? Anyway, like its been said, for what they cost, its not worth the hassle. Slap a new one in there
  23. Anyway dan, insurance is a joke. I was with admiral, paid like £1000, and after being with them for a year, being a year older, and a year's extra no claims bonus, they put my premium up to £1200. I looked elsewhere and got it for £600.
