  5. I've only every had Koxx Greens! they were good on a light grind. wud be better on a harsher grind. Recommended Use Brown: Medium grind, dry or wet weather, with or without tar. Great wear life. Red/Yellow: Medium or light grind, dry weather, with or without tar. Blue/Green: Medium or light grind, wet weather, without tar Go for the medium grind. If its too harsh, use browns for a week or so. to deaden the gringd off and wack the yellows back in.

  15. How long do you think they'll last? weeks? days?
  16. He's going to shamfer the edges. If the worse come to it, ill make a piece, but that will just "slipped" in there, With plenty of lube and a hammer. well see how it goes. VERY worse case, new(er) forks! bit gutted and they are nice forks. I suppose £70 isnt bad i guess, but I have limited cash for a while. as im buying a car soon.
  17. I put some insulatio0n tape round the fords a to cut them in a hurry cut the at the bottom one, and they were supose to cut at the top one! I was raging with myself. but as I have a good engneering place round the corner. (british steel wold have been best, ano there NOT steel) I went there explained to the guy, who was sceptical about it, but she says he CAN do it! I'll be going down there tmora to see his work. opefully theyll be good! If they do snap at the weld. I can make one up at school/get one done by the metal work guy and see how that goes. But its like what Ali C done with his bars. You did it too! I'm sure a lad on here got the welded Rob i think his name was, on a white BT Maybe that was Trials Nation. (back in the day:)) Thanks!
  18. I have a BRAND NEW pair of Echoi lite forks being welded, as I f**king cut it about 40mm too short Made me cry inside. I just wondered if they would need heat treated after welding the back. The guy at the fabrication shop said hes going to do them. I'm just a bit gutted that I payed £70 and fort I'd f**ked them. If I cnt get em sorted right, whats the shorted they can be on a deng frame or any other with 100mm head tube. There 140mm, too short for anything?
