  1. got some hi-fi forks on my bike, there was a bit of wobble on them, but i sorted that. they are stif as owt, and are a really nice length, my bike pulls to back wheel nicer and despite their burly looks they are very light. disc mount is 9mm thick so snappage shouldnt happen, and u can spot face it to line the caliper up perfectly. all in al lovely pair of forks, but at £110 they are a bit pricey, do finish my 26ghz off nicely
  2. just bought some of these, fitted em to my bike, and working in a bike shop got the disc mount spot faced and the race fitted properly. my headset is pressed corectly into the frame, everything is tight and there seems to be soooo much play at the front end. i was putting it down to pad play in my mono trial but my mate, who rides an 05 team with team team forks has the same problem. anyone any ideas what might be causing this "wobble". if i screw the headset bolt in any more its going to snap. other than this i have to say these forks awere worth the money make my bike ride so much nicer cheers
  3. anyone who wants this before it gets shacked add me to msn ill send mind u, only can send limited number at a time or itll be as slow as eengoedidee email addy in profile
  4. :) backwheel along a rail - whaaaaat that riding is not normal! :P
  5. very cool little vid, but it seemed to end abruptly when matt staples was switching his feet for a sidehop, this was at 2.10 so i think ive missed 8 seconds somewhere good vid though some sweet street moves from tim pratt (Y)
  6. go for a company called endsleigh (i think thats how you spell it) they do student discount if your in full time education. also i think mine was insured with cornhill, and i got a full cash payout (well cheque) when my bikes were stolen, not some replacement. good friendly company who acted quickly, got the money within 6 weeks. hope that helps
  7. lets hope they are playing winner stays on!! :huh:
  8. got 1 exam left on friday and then its back to the bike shop for summer, oh and i do plan on doing a lot more riding. exams are gettin in the way. who decided to schedule exams during nice weather?!? :huh:
  9. CRC - always been fine with me no matter what size order
  10. 92.5 but i like shooting the thing into the air and lettin it splat down, some what calming
  11. thank u for the toe nail, horrible :o funniest thing i found was a few months ago, so dont have a link but i am telling the truth some girl was selling her "friendship for 3 months" with 7 hours to go she was going for £780. what u won was her mobile number which u could call 24/7 she would meet u and go places with u. no sex (hmmmmm) her undivided attention etc etc etc
  12. you can get it when your 16 i had mine then so i could ride my scooter (oh the days :)" ) u cant drive til your 17 though
  13. just out of interest what were you searching for when you found this?? WMD??? :) maybe the UK and USA should try ebay, saddam probably put his stuff up there before the weapon inspectors dropped by
  14. just say some thing like have a good time, enjoy yourself, let me know whats happening because i dont want to miss out on all the fun! something like that, not sounding like u dont want her having fun but that u want her to let u know your safe because u "care a lot about her" that line usually works but yeah as mike says, youve got to trust her.
  15. can u imagine having one of those on your drive, sweet! wow a lot of those people have pools
  16. yet another good video, that phone box get up was scary stuff. looking forward to the next
  17. cool pics guys! i went up there on saturday was windy as hell! the place is awesome to ride. got a couple of videos but was riding too much to film. should see you out in skipton when im back from uni (abe knows who i am, i ride a 26GHz) the "massive rock" abe is going up is actually rather large, the pic doesnt do it justice, i did it the other way round the roll out was easier!
  18. thats what i understood from her too! silly riding there, there are certain things i wouldnt do on a bike, and then theres those lines you guys pull. good to watch (and very good to see you dont always make it first time :deej:" )
  19. now then ben you really should be revising!!! cool little vid though! love the fact that when woody was doing those rail gaps 1.14 into it the cyclist behind didnt seem to realise what he was doing. (Y) sodding exams really are cutting down on riding time though thanks for including my little clips, much appreciated :)
  20. highly unlikely theyll let you, they are very selective and it helps living in barnoldswick! all the hubs are with sponsored riders
  21. i dont know what happened with matt tongue but my 26Ghz seat tubes and rear stays look very similar to those pictured above the stand over height is even lower on the Ghz from what i can tell
  22. itll be out when its ready, keep your eye on the sites, but hope wont release it until they are sure they arent going to get the whole lot back because theyve broken. so far as i know it is still being tested. once the test hubs are perfect the production ones will be in the shops pretty sharpish. itll be worth waiting for trust me, just get money for your birthday, stick it in a bank account and gain some pennies in the mean time :)
  23. Bald Guy: do you want fries with that?
  24. go to your local bike shop, i know where i work we have all size bearing in stock (obviously if they are an irregualr size then ull have to check with them) check with them, or halfords, you may be surprised
  25. never used heatsinks so cant comment on them, but my plaz crms are amazing. on the street they hold on rails no probs, and as for natural, problems with rock cambers are only down to my sodding tyres folding,
