  1. Gave up on giving up and just did it, I'm guessing I will just have to experiment on how many spacers go between the frame and the hub and yes, I like duck tape on my frame :$

    Whys doesn't he have an account? I mean he rides trials, he helps you so he could help others? Just an idea?
  3. Been filing the dropouts a while now, the file is fine, nothing wrong with it, to be honest just giving up, I don't want to file down to much that it will maker the dropouts too weak and I don't want to cramp the axle in that could result in it not working / fitting in another frame, just getting a new frame instead, call me a spoilt or someone that gives up easily, I don't really care
  4. I would say yes, go for it, if you can splash that kind of money around, why not! Have you ridden trials in a past life? I can't tell by your introduction?
  5. Yes, just had a little look at it then there wound back, enough for it to slide back, will do it tomorrow too, I think I will do it! Still want a new frame though :') And I just took another quick loot in the shed then, I use to have to kind of tap my old wheel out like the dropouts were cramped not that way -->, but ^ that way, May just have a cheeky little file down to make it fit upto the tensioners, as the frame is pretty much on its last weeks! EDIT - was writing that while going back and froth, what dan said basically yeah ahah, cheers for all the help guys means alot!
  6. Yeah fitted my washers and it fits fine, but it wont slide back to where I want / need it, I don't know if I should put a bit of force onto it?
  7. I think I understand.. Take the one that I can get off, take it off, and replace with my own spacers, but fewer, will be back in a bit to let you all know, In the mean time, trialspads, yey or ney? Cheers Mark too!
  8. Bit blonde when it comes to things like this, I can take the one on the disc side but not the cogged side, you then want me to file them down by 3 mm?
  9. I have some, well millions and there arent any washers on my hub atm though?
  10. Nope...it has no cams, it doesnt slide all the way up to where I need it (onza's own chain tensioning stuff) And I don't want to file anything down or damage anything just in case.
  11. Thought alot of that looked local.. Only 15 minutes away..
  12. Also a bit off topic but any one order from trialpads? There is a frame on it for like $100? From the US so I dont know what postage is like o_O
  13. Out of riding until I get a new frame (y) As if i'm not bored already!

      Maybe not, cheers Trials Forum!

  14. O, would rather get a new frame to be honest though..I mean an onza blade 09, im sick of it, its half dead, and I dislkie the geo, so yeah new frame it is!
  15. I though it was Really quite a rough rider imo... And inclding the time period it has a right to be mangled :') Have a Echo TR wheel, it wont fit in my frame as the frame is 110mm and the hub is 116mm so yeah new frame is needed!
  16. So I have had this rear wheel for about 3 years now buckled to sh*t, I have had to adjust the bearings alot in the past month as they are knackerd, just have to tighten it up so they stay in and grease it all just so I can roll around! Yesterday I decided to take the whole thing apart and I only found 3 ball bearings in the cog side of the hub and after taking it all apart I find the rest of them, I'm guessing there is 18 ball bearing in total? And I just want to know, does this look kind of well, broken? I'm guessing thats where all of the bearings were hidden? So is it time to just give up on that rear wheel, before it somehow explodes? Some pictures, sorry for quality, hard to get a good picture...
  17. Oh..and angry - Haven't had a real job since August, and that was for like a weekend sale in NEXT! Every single one turns me down, and all the ones that I am intrested in end up being 18+ (bar staff) Also every single apprenticehip has turned me down so it looks like i'm taking a 'gap year' next year, hopefully I will have a job to pass the time. I have also nearly finished college so at the start of the year I was in 2 days a week 9-6, and now i'm only in 1 day a week 9-12 I get so bored..
  18. Anywhere nice? Where are you originally from? Non UK?
  19. After the bath in WD40, could you not use a chain whip, have a mighty chain on, and just go ham on it?
  20. What forks are you running? Look like these.
  21. 55 minutes by car, 2 hours by train, 11 hours to walk there.. Count me there!
  22. How much did you pay in total mate?
  23. What about TrialsAddict? I'm sure they stock them?
