Halfords f**king sucks.... Underpaid. Shit customers, Shocking bikes, and loads of foreigners coming in saying "oh dis byke broke man innit i wnt a warrenty fit on it ye?" Bah.

To be honest I was going to write what Simon wrote. I'm pleasently surprised by the website actually. After getting used to the bloody freewebs trash that n00b's put on here, it's beautiful to have good hosting, a .co.uk and a website which ain't no template. Also I see you've tried Java in your rollovers. It doesn't work on my browser (Safari) but meh. Well done for trying. I know that the pages, due to them being .htm's for every single one, could of been done better with some really simple Php, rather than having to have a new page for every click / main pic etc. The video's just finished. And to be honest I'm impressed. You're one of the best 13 year old's I've ever seen ride. Better than Siders on the forum and he's like 2 years older than you :P Joking hehe. (even though you are...) Oh, and Nice use of the front wheel. I'm gonna have to practise gapping to Frontwheel Um yeah. Good song. Alright editing. I'd of prefered the video in a .mpg format as windows media player f**king sucks. Overall. I'm impressed. Well done.

Haha. I have no income except 2plus1 Clothing at the moment. Really need another job on the site to fun my alcohol addiction

The video was alright. He seemed pretty confident with his new Zip. The music was okay, but editing in my opinion was pretty poor. I'm not a fan of all the flashy half clips, they just piss me off. Also Slow motion does too, especially on moves which aren't amazing or fantastic. Alright video in my opinion, and worth the download. I'm looking forwards to his next one :] Nick

Yeah, but it's like buying a Nova and putting Ferrari badges on. A bit cheesy isn't it? It doesn't have a CNC'd headtube or nething. And if they're the same. Why not just leave it as a Zona? Or get 'custom' Zona stickers. No point making it out as a Python.

Zoo! Stickers on a Zona / Onza ? I don't get why you'd want to.

Yeah Janson unfortunately you got owned. Don't know if it's different than in the UK but I've had numerous Apple iPod products, then been f**ked 'cos i've broke them (dropping, snapping, riding with them and such) and they've sent me a brand new one, with free postage both ways (a UPS courier coming to your house and dropping it back off there) So actually they're really good, and no-one on TF has said otherwise with Apple's aftermarket warrenty's etc. Charel for the win..

Do you know so much about Threadless and their contracts for Designers that you can summarise them and conclude so promptly? We quite well know that our Bloodshot design was designed by Craig Brickles. We've spoke to him, thanks for your interest. There is no copyright infrindge ment what-so-ever. We're merely supplying designs which he wishes to be available in the United Kindom, without extortionate, slow airmail postage through Threadless.com and such. Threadless.com do not own the sole printing rights to that designs. Thanks again for your interest. Your post seemed very unhelpful to my intial topic question. Thanks Nick Carter.

Oh okay. Still, not a very helpful post! I know my competition, they're not my competition. lol..

Woo good start, jake has resized it for a thumbnail Everyone do it. It'll be annoying otherwise. Imageshack.us baby yeh.
-
Surely everyone's changed their lots since the last topic from Frika or someone. Mine's: Oh and try to put thumbnails 'cos otherwise the topic will be huuuuge for 56k ers especially :]

New Backwheel Dont Know What Hub
Dai the Socket replied to thirsty2's topic in Beginners Trials Chat
Haha. I didn't know it was for stock. Oops. Ignore me -
They're shit. Fact. They Snap bigtime. And hardly stay in. If you tighten them enough to stay in, they snap. So that's a pointless thing to look into Stop having a go at Rob! It's a good topic :] If you want to run ST then run it. People like it, some don't. Whatever. I've got Square Taper in but it makes f**k all difference to me to be quite honest. Good idea and Good topic in my opinion

If you're loaded and good, get a King. If you're richish and getting ace, get a Profile. If you're just rubbish, get an White Industries or someting cheaper 'cos you might break it or such lol.. -
Lol not a very helpful post Yeah, I do. Doesn't mean i wouldn't like some Zoo York stuff. I really like their designs. What's wrong with that? lol.. Find out where he does, edit your post, and it might be somewhere near good
-
Haha. Bah, they've got used to needing to be good at after sales stuff, they'll get enough people coming back...
-
Same as the others, 3 times. Had a 3rd Gen non colour, it broke, i got a free Photo one. Then the photo one broke and the guy i sold it to got a free replacement. And on my Nano, I took it biking, it snapped, I got a free, brand new one and a £30 gift voucher with Apple for my 'inconvenience'. Not too bad 'eh? Apple especially rock at after sales service stuff...
-
I was just wondering if anyone knew where you can get the full range of Zoo York's stuff (or lots of it) online? I've had a look at Hsc Plus, Extreme Pie and Route 1 but they don't have much of the Zoo York range. I want some of the Stencil Tshirts and a Nice Hoody Thanks if anyone can shed any light onto it, or give some other shops which are particularly good. Thanksss. Nick Carter

Off out into York with a mate, my sister and her boyfriend and her friends. Should be ace as since my sister's boyfriend's a bouncer it means he gets in places straight away with us and stuff, and it's usually mega cheap. Really looking forwards to it! There's fireworks and shizzle at the minster I think so Can't wait.. Even though it's another night of drinking, then feeling rough the morning after
-
Can I come? I'll make it worth your while Nick..

Erm. I'd stick with a well set-up Magura if I were you. And nah, Just brush it really lightly so there's no shit or stupid finish on your rim. What rim is it too? And what pads you using? Just put some heatsinks on the front on a brushed rim. That'd be perfect. Good lock + hold, modulation, and not a stupid wear rate like you'd have with a harsh grind
-
Nah I wouldn't if I were you. Or I'd brush it really lightly with a grinding disk if you are going to. Are you running a Hs33?
-
99% of people use angle grinders for a reason. They're the best option! It takes about 10 minutes with an angle grinder, you can have a light or harsh grind, and no cutting of fingers.
