    Federal Reserve is in talks about interest rates. How true that is who knows but BTC tends to sort of follow the trade markets and then other cryptos follow BTC. Bitcoin prices fall to lowest in months after US Fed remarks https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-59907864
  2. Exporting from China is an ongoing huge issue. Shipping containers have shot up in value, the shipping cost has tripled

    Only if I’d kept it all from the back then. I’ve played around with buying and selling it

    Bought into cyrpto back around 2011, BTC to start with. Then started mining it, carried on doing both even today.

    Covid19

    Recovered now. Wow that was an experience. I peaked at 38.9c and was like that for a whole day. Was strange having food and drink with no smell and taste. Was it just me or did anyone have the shits really bad as result? Like proper weight loss from it!! Today we should have broke isolation. So the wife tested the kids. Yep you guessed it. They are both positive. Back in for ten more days.

    Covid19

    Wife and I just come down with it over crimbo. Did LFT on the 24th ready for crimbo day and boom. So crimbo day we went for PCR. Haven’t ever felt this Ill
  10. Turn the mounts around. So right side goes to the left and left goes to the right. They will allow some movement.
  11. Sadly I don’t have them. A Sunn would be an ideal item to add. you should be able to view it all without needing to have an account/profile.
  12. Most I’m guessing will have seen this page on Instagram already but if not here you go: https://instagram.com/oldschooltrials?r=nametag I’ve collected, purchased, acquired a range of retro trials frames. I am still looking to add more as compared to others collection some I don’t have. Mixed plans on restoring them. It’s difficult to to do the right thing give them the correct justice. Do plan to try and do a build on each and document that. Most likely a transfer of kit build to build as can’t build them all. Anyway let me know what you think and if you know of something fitting that’s going defo tell me.
  13. No need to be sorry. Fact your aware of it and resolving it is huge.
  14. Anyone have it today when clicking on a topic it does loads but and error shows about not being able to show the content?
  15. I bought it then I sold it. I think I sold it someone here. Gutted I did but had to. Anyone know where it is these days. Would love to get it back.
  16. Anyone knew what size BCD is needed for the attached bashguard. I haven’t got it to hand to measure. 22T I want to fit.
  17. I agree the quality of the hardware is an issue. I’ve had switched and a cloud key go on me. I use a Raspberry Pi for my controller.
  18. Any one here running Ubiquity kit? I have the following but we’re about to move and will need to add some additional AP’s and switches. Thankfully it’s a new build so I’ve been able to go in and run 25mm conduit, all joins have been glued so it won’t come apart. I’ve also ran pulling twine using Kevlar twine so super strong. My wife one end stuffs it in the tube, there is a bit of cloth tied to the twine to seal the tube. Other end I have Henry. Sucks it down the length instantly. I can then go back and do a 2nd fix terminating it all. Need to add 3 more AP’s internally maybe 4 and 2 more externally. The externals have also had the conduit run done, plus some external lighting so all worked out well.
  19. Headbadge is something many of us want but can't get. Not even Pashley have any
  20. Not going on anything modern.
  21. I managed to grab a set of HS33 Quicksilvers cheap today. They do need a fair bit of work. Here is the listing, I did warn they are needing TLC https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/184372021567 Does anyone knows the RAL colour of them originally? Plan is to strip, gut, clean them, ditch the hose and fittings (replace them with new). Ideally respray them, anyone got any tips on the slaves and the piston. Best way to protect them, no option to remove I believe. Would be nice to have have them stamped saying Magura etc but a decal might be better. Cheers
  22. Spotted this post the other day so sorry to dig up and old topic. I have the above frame. It’s done the rounds a lot. James (Student) had it, Dave the rocket, Leon also rode it for a while, then Luke (Toby) and finally my self. It was nicknamed the coke can due to the dent on the bottom side of the downtube. If I recall if you used the left foot forward it would sound like a coke can. It’s been in the top of the garage for a few years. Before the last respray it had the brake mounts removed so was disc only. I quickly threw some bits on it to show it off. It’s now back on the garage roof. Hope the photos are of use. Would see it if anyone wanted to make an offer
