  1. I once did that with a rover 214. Just left it there. Left the keys in it, got my bike out the back and rode off. Never saw it again, never had any comebacks
  2. Fox flux. Saved my canister a few times
  3. I didn't like a short stem, found it put my weight too much over the rear end on climbing and made the front end very light and vague. Was not a fan at all

    CNC Work

    Alex dark does it as well, and Scotty (craig scott from Donny)
  5. Joking aside, that would work because of the unified rear triangle design. You'd just have to train your upper body to take into account the top tube flex when preloading. Because that's essentially what it is, a pivoting top tube
  6. Yeah. An old school koxx Vinco if you can find one

    Mag help

    Heatsink yellows, harsh grind, win.
  8. Same geo as a 2012 echo lite mod. Better reach if you are taller
  9. Brand new onza blade. If it's the White one that's a really good geo for a mod
  10. Cox with a shotgun

    The Angry Thread.

    Took an hour to get home from work instead of the usual 17 mins, due to some f**king doylem wagon driver ignoring the high wind warnings on the Ouse bridge and proceeding to go over said bridge with a static caravan on the back of a low loader.its now on its side blocking 2 lanes, it was blocking the whole thing and had to close since half ten this morning. What a tosser. It says in massive letters on the matrix signs bridge closed to high sided vehicles

    Dark Ashton

    That's proper nice mate
  13. Dream combination in my opinion. Stiffest calipers they've ever made, and one of the lightest levers with servo wave action. I'd have gone for m810 or the m775 xt levers but they are too hard to get in good nick now. I've seen a few xt 4 pot calipers knocking about so it could be done fairly cheaply with new levers off chain reaction. I looked into doing it before my Deores came up cheap but got screwed over by a lad on pinkbike who was selling a pair of xt calipers
  14. Pretty much any shimano caliper is compatible with any shimano lever apart form the mega old stuff. It's just matching the fittings up to get them to work. Best shimano combination is the old shimano xt 4 pot calipers with new style xt levers

    F1

    Don't know who I can't stand more, Vettel or rosberg. Nice to see a Ferrari win though
  16. Manchester is shit full stop, purely because it's manchester. I'm barred from the slug and lettuce on deansgate for calling a barmaid a fat fanny
  17. Do it jardo, I love going out on my mountain bike, a lot more than riding trials these days. Suprising how a bit of speed can change things
  18. Cheeky bastards. Not on that is it
  19. Quibell has a set of 4 bolt neons with a long steerer, I borrowed them off him last year
  20. You wanker. Can't be, it's not about Damon
  21. Neil has sold up due to getting his bird duffed
  22. I did wonder when I saw these cranks how you would get the freewheel off, as a standard tool won't fit due to the axle size
  23. I've had a well good day. I'm training to be a rugby union coach for under 7/8's. It's brilliant, we have a right laugh. Doing all the courses and stuff when the new season starts later on this year. Rode trials for an hour this aft. And went out on the mountain bike at teatime for a quick 8 miles, just as it was getting dark so only needed the light on the way back. Had some tea and a can or two
