I reckon you should have kept the T-Pro. Having said that, if you save up £100 ish and buy a new frame (Echo Pures/Levelbosses/Bases etc often go for that amount), that bike could be pretty nice. It's just the frame letting it down at the moment.

I'd probably rather keep it I'm afraid. The reason I bought a new HDD for the PC was because the 120Gb I had was really noisy and I thought it might die, so I'd rather keep this one as a spare. If you're gonna chip it, just buy a 40gig drive from ebuyer for about £25 (or in fact any hard drive you can lay your hands on), although I don't think that will work in the xbox if you don't chip it.

It's a pretty shitty world if no-one will stand up to a bunch of idiots wandering around being antisocial. You can't say the woman deserved it in the slightest. It's like that guy who got stabbed to death for asking someone to stop throwing chips at people. (Y)

Yeah, you can buy all sorts of gubbins to go with the more expensive chips. Like USB support so you can use external hard drives I think, and keyboards and mice etc. In fact the controller ports on xboxes are just modified USB ports. I think then you can install some kind of linux and have a fully working PC. But there's not much point - I already have a PC.

It just looks like a normal (Crystal) xbox. The only thing you can see that is different is a little switch to turn the chip on or off, and a strange blue light emanating from the chip itself. All the differences are inside. And don't worry about the other thread (Y)

Take the hard drive out of the old and connect it up to the new. It's dead easy and much quicker than burning (Y)

That looks damn nice now Steve! Yeah, everyone is suprised at how light they are. Even Leesons with the ?6lbs frame and a seat. I guess smaller wheels take some weight off, so they're no heavier than a normal stock really. And mine is pretty much like a stock, which is easier to throw around. It's not massively short like Steve's or most other people's 24s, so it rides nice as a trials bike, which you can also throw about BMX style. I like it mucho. For anyone thinking of going the way of the twofour, you should because it's so much fun. Although I reckon wait a bit, I predict there will be a few more frames popping up at more affordable prices - I'd be surprised to see the likes of Onza passing this opportunity up. In a year there will be 3 times the number of 24" riders that there are now, at least. That's my prediction... And I dunno if Clive can keep up with that sort of demand!

Haha cool. Have you ever ridden there? Didn't look particularly hard on the video (Y) Nice pic by the way.

The £270 deal apparently will come with a silver xbox live subscription. Which I am pretty sure means that you'll get a year for free.

The issue with the tensioner is not whether you can move the jockey wheel, it's whether it'll take up enough slack. If you have it set up nice for an 18t sprocket, you'll have way too much slack if you want to use an 11t. It basically won't work I'm afraid.

There is. Quite why anyone would want it turned on is beyond me, but it's on as default. Just change it and you're dandy.

But media player means videos/films/TV programs etc not just music.

Guess it depends on the mech and how far is needs to move then. But certainly worth a try.

Random Far-Eastern generic jump/hardtail frame to be honest.

Spelling lessons? (Y)

I don't really get the banner. Would be better if it was more relevant to trials. But I guess it looks pretty, which is half of trials (Y)

I think the first ones will come with evo mounts. Just not 4 bolt.

I don't see why people bother doing that, when you can simply screw the limit screw in to hold the mech in place. Much simpler and less fiddly. If the bolt isn't long enough (i.e. your sprocket is way over near the spokes), then get a longer bolt.

You must have been there a while ago, cos now there are fun boxes and grind rails too.

Remember it's not a PC. The XBox is only a 700MHz processor + 64MB RAM, and it still plays modern games fine. Consoles aren't the same as PCs in loads of ways - you can't compare. 7 cores clocked really low would be cool anyway, so it's a silly thing to say that it would melt the case. Just had a look at the spec and it looks pretty awsome. I would probably get one if I played games. Just imagine being able to plug the Xbox360 into your home network, and stream trials videos from your computer to your TV. That would be pretty cool, non? Well basically you can do that with a chipped Xbox. I suppose if it does that straight out of the box, it could be a very nice piece of kit, but there's nothing extra that it will be able to do for me :)

If I had a stock, it would probably be one of those. They look really, really nice and they're cheap too. Plus Ashton is really cool, I wouldn't mind throwing some money/love his way :(

Yes, but I think lots of forks came from Aprebic, including Orange forks. So not just Missions :(

Yeah, the £210 option, whilst cheap, seems pretty rubbish in comparison. If it can do everything my chipped xbox1 can do, I might consider it, but I doubt it will be able to. I haven't really been following it, but doesn't it come with Windows Media Centre or something? Looks pretty cool, but I'll probably stick to my xbox which is awsomely ace anyway :(

No, did you watch the video? It explains it all. I don't know any more than anyone else who has watched the vid :(

If you can't do over 2ft then something is definitely wrong really. I wouldn't really worry about preloading/lowering the front at this stage, it'll just confuse you. You don't really need to think about that until you get to maybe 4ft or bigger. Just concentrate on your balance on the back wheel, hopping to the edge nicely and then just doing one bigger backhop to the next object.
