After a bit of trawling I found one long enough, a really crappy one on ebay which cost £3. It's doing the job.

I'm not sure which to buy. I've got an Onza T-Raptor, and it had the standard onza quick release on the back. It measures 184mm from one end to the center of the quick release, 167 from end to the quick release nut thing, might be a bit stretched seeing as I snapped it by overtightening/the nut slipping into the tensioner hole. And about 4mm diameter. Wouldn't mind switching to a nut axle, any suggestions? Cheers. Edit: I think I might mean rear skewer...

Erm theres a few places, under the bridge near the Auto/aero eng building, near victory hall, I've not been there at all this year but before the building works EHB was alright. Bring your student ID and just have a chat with the security guards, there's been one bellend but the rest, including the police, have been alright. Maybe wear high-vis at night? I'm pretty shit so to be honest any flatland is alright for what I'm doing, but me mates alright.

You a student here? Security don't mind me and me mate riding on campus but we're both students and apparently they've been having trouble with people f**king up benches and walls and stuff.

Dubstep all the way.

It works for me. Don't wanna sound like an ass but did you scroll down?

This fella's selling a 28 hole rim. £35

Got it. I will go for the Hope hub. Just started taking apart my wheel, was worryingly easy to do it bare handed. Pics of what I've done are below, but I don't get how to remove the freewheel, theres only one place to put a tool and nothing to turn it against, everything else is round without ridges or anything.. Anyway, as you can see the cassette has fallen apart. This was only about 2 weeks old, and the same thing happened to the previous cassette. Dunno how clear it is but there are little plastic rings which hold each gear together, the two bottom ones are missing the plastic ring. Why has this exact thing happened twice, cheap cassette (Shimano HG50 or something to do with the hub? Any ideas? And can it/is it worth fixing, if not any suggestions on what to get for a replacement? Since I'm gonna get a new hub the other pics aren't really that important.

Yeah it's defo not the crank. I'm thinking the Shimano XT might be suitable. I think I remember reading it is suitable for trials somewhere? Isn't too expensive either.

Heh heh, yeah. Anyway thanks for the help guys. I'm going home from uni tomorrow so I don't wanna be taking things apart, plus I don't have the tools to remove the casette anyway.

That is sounding pretty expensive, could I get this back wheel, or something similar designed for MTB rather than trials? If it lasts me a year I'll be happy, I'm a student but am doing a placement next year so will have a fair bit more to splash around.

Just started trials riding, am loving it but I've done my back wheel hub or something in. The pedals turn the gears but not the back wheel, and theres no freewheel click. Both pedals and wheel run extremely smoothly, the back wheel spins as freely as the front. First of all, what needs replacing? And second of all, I've looked but cannot find the dimensions of my rear wheel, hub and whatnot. It's an Onza T-Raptor with a stock back everything except cassette. Does that apply to all 26'' trials bikes? :/ Cheers!
