They are £2100 for this years model. Next years model will be pretty much the same except around £2600 with the price of bikes going up over the whole market so had to get one before the new models. I like the way they've put a fox float 32 fork and a Fox RP23 with boost valve rear shock on. Other bikes had lesser forks and shock for more money. Pretty happy with the bike though. The bike comes stickerless and comes with a sticker set, so you can put them where you want.

New Saracen Ariel 2. Loving it so far.

He is right though. If you've used a Deore rear mech and anything like a Sram X7 then it won't work properly. All the X range are 1:1 actuation. The only Shimano compatible Sram shifters are the Sram Attack and TRX thumb shifters (like the X range) and the MRX gripshift. Otherwise it simply won't shift through all the gears correctly no matter how much you adjust it. Also all Sram shifters are compatible with Shimano front mechs, so that's not a problem.

Kona don't do anything for me at all. I don't know why, but I just don't like them one bit.

Went to Afan a few weeks ago. It is absolutely amazing. But be prepared for some tough climbs.

It depends really. You should use Anti seize on your bottom bracket threads. But if you have an Aluminium frame and an aluminium non drive side cup, then a bit of thread lock will be ok. The drive side shouldn't be coming loose really as it's tightened onto the frame, and you should be putting anti seize on the drive side if it's and Aluminium frame/Steel BB thread because it may well seize in.

People I know who have been to uni said they end up out with their new flatmates because they're all in the same boat, so everyone in the flat wants to get to know eachother. So you'll all go out. Yes, one might be gay, the other might be into Jazz, and someone will probably be a violent drunk, but you'll probably meet new people to go out with and you can leave your flat mates to it. If not, just grab a 3L bottle of cider, drink that on your own and go to the union and see what happens....

The likes of Red Bull, Monster, Relentless etc are great if you're feeling a bit tired and need a pick up. But for riding I can't see it making a difference to the riding ability, mentally and physically. Unless you're riding under par due to feeling too tired or lethargic it could help give you some energy to get you going. But because of the caffein in them, you'll always get a come down, which isn't ideal for sports. Although Red Bull doesn't seem as intense as the others, so for sports if any caffeine related drink is used, it'd be Red Bull. Personally I find Lucazade sport (the non fizzy one) the one to drink. It without doubt used to help me prevent arm pump in competitions (cramping and lactic acid build up in arms due to continually pulling the brakes and using arm forearm muscles). The same applied to a Powder mix energy drink (HIGH 5) I think it was. I was cycling a long distance and my legs where cramping up and the occasional sipping of the drink would help a lot. So these energy drinks (propper non caffein drinks) will help you ride longer at a high level by giving your muscles the energy they need for a short period of time, but they don't make you ride better, i.e hop higher or give a better mental attitude. I find drinking Relentless makes you need a toilet pretty near by. After literally a few swigs it triggers a toilet visit. Every time. It's bizarre. It must pass go or something.

Me and Davetrials turned up at about 4/5pm bumped into a few riders. Don't know who anyone was, but, nasty chainsnap.

I'm going down to London this weekend so I'm wondering, where are the best places to go on a Friday and Saturday night. I'll be staying in Camden so I know there are places around there to go and I'm also aware of Soho, but what bars are good to go to? Any cheap pubs/bars that anybody knows of around Camden, Soho or anywhre else? Mainly after reasonably priced places and maybe a few really cheap places because my mates might not have much dolla. I was told Brick Lane/Spitalfields is quite good too. Not really looking for big clubs or anything just decent places to drink. So anyone with any ideas will be helpful. Thanks. Phil.

Funniest crash I've ever seen. Genius.

I wouldn't worry. You've got a single ply tyre. That's your problem. As soon as you get a double ply, you'll reduce your chances of getting them. You probably will still get them but nowhere near as much. Also, what rim have you got? You're more likely to pinch with a narrower rim than a wide rim. So with a 2.35 single ply tyre on a narrow'ish rim like a 38mm wide rim, it's not as good as with a 47mm wide rim.

Find one of these: http://www.bikemagic.com/reviews/wheels/tyres/specialized-evil-twin-soft-condition-dh---22/667.html Any never worry again.

I don't ride brakeless. But I'd imagine it'd also help your falling off technique .

Or, you can just get this and be done with. http://www.winstanleysbmx.com/product/1026/Odyssey_G3_Gyro

"You have a spectacular hiney. I mean it's really good. I wanna be friends with it."

Good point haha.

Nobody steals my bike, it doesn't have a seat.

It depends how much money you have, If you only have £200 you can't go wrong with the Barracuda. The frames are actually really nice with hydroformed tubing. Box stem and riser bars, more durable seat, suitable tyres. For the money it's a great bike. But it depends how much you have or want to spend, there's no point comparing it to a £800 24/7. That bike is only for novice dirt jumping really.

Don't forget to clean your rim. Makes all the difference if your rim is full of brake dust/mud/dirt.

I don't understand why people were saying David James was the best player. The first goal he should have come out for the ball and taken it, but he hesitated. The second goal was a tight angle, he should be stopping them. The 3rd goal was right at him, but he decided to move out the way. Although it was hit hard. But I can't help feeling a better keeper would have stopped them. All he done was make 2 saves and catch the ball 3 times.

Pretty sure you need to open a dictionary and look up "exaggeration". Lol.

re build one side of the wheel and put a high tension on the spokes. I don't know if it'll be strong enough to withstand the force used when removing a sprocket but, worth a try. But... If you managed to remove the spokes without taking the sprocket off, I don't see why you can't put them back in, just bend them a little, they'll straighten up. P.s. The above method, probably won't work.

That's ridiculous that. They even put it on national news. It's hardly a problem. When you look at other phones like Nokia, sony, HTC, they all have bigger problems but they never get the slack. Iphones are the only phones you can rely on and do what you actually want them to do without slowing down or crashing every 5 minutes.
