    Snapped

    your chain is on your bike in the pic
  2. you could take some from a better angle (side on) to show the frame.
  3. I live in Trowbridge and went to college in bath and always fancied riding there. It's a pretty city I'm sure there is loads of riding spots. I would definitely bring your bike with you. I'd be up for meeting you there and finding some spots. I bet the uni grounds are good
  4. I just bled my Echo TR brake with water and anti-freeze mix and it is leaking from the bleed screw on the slave. I'm going to try a copper washer and see if it sorts it. but it doesn't seem to be leaking from the lever piston but could be because i can't put any pressure through it yet...
  5. Same... that happens a lot on here I CBA with f/book
  6. My dad showed me this team's website after he saw them at a local show he went to... IMO they look good but failrly similar to a lot of other cycle stunt shows, e.g. jumping up and off frames and boxes and a van, and a part where they drop the front wheel out and still ride. I certainly couldn't do half the tricks they do but its nothing that hasn't been done before. probably more impressive for non trials riders.
  7. I had this problem on my grip clamps as it was recessed into the clamp I couldn't get a saw or file on the allen head so used a small one of these screw removers http://toolmonger.com/2008/06/12/broken-screws-unscrewed/ but it was slipping and made a mess of the clamp. The EZ-out type that tap a reverse thread into the rounded off bolt do a better job but take longer cos you have to drill a pilot hole.

    Headtube Facing

    I made my own version of this; http://www.tredz.co.uk/.Park-Tool-RT2-Head-Cup-Remover-1-1-4-and-1-1-2-inch_11284.htm I used a length of steel tube (old pair of handle bars would probably do) and cut 4 slits about 6-8 inches deep and just spread them apart till they were too big to fit in the head-tube, then I squeezed it to get it in the headtube and onto the lip of the cup.
  9. Briliant I'll give it a go... definately going to try the old spoke trick too. Thanks for the help
  10. This is Genius! Out of interest does everyone use the magura hose clamps?(£8) Only I was thinking of drilling a hole through a peice of wood about the same size as the maggie hose clamps, then sawing it in half down the drill hole... or just sanding a grove into 2 peices of wood. Obviously it will need to be around the same dia. as the hose to prevent it sliping in the clamp or damaging the hose. Advice please....

    Akrigg's Latest Vid

    My bad... I Seem to be having issues with the search function on here.
  12. Here is a link to Akrigg's latest vid its bloody amazin, really well filmed and edited... Apologies if this is already on here somewhere, I did search before posting. https://www.surface-clothing.com/cms/cms.jsp?menu_id=16872&category=CLSU-WJJCK
  13. I made a video about 4 - 5 years ago and can't find it... I remember uploading it on a foreign hosting site, think it was German and began with K but may be wrong Does anyone remember what is was and if it is still around? I may have linked it on here but can't find it. Mike Edit* Found It, It was Eengoedidee.nl....and my old video was embarrassingly poor
  14. could it be that your frame is flexing?... what booster do you have? My new Zona Frame flexes way more than my old Koxx one even with the booster
  15. I read this topic a little while ago but came across this when looking for a new helmet... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RED-BULL-F1-BMX-MTB-DIRT-JUMP-SKATE-HELMET-WHITE-LARGE-59-61CM-/280909633659?pt=UK_Cycling_Clothing&hash=item416784d87b#ht_1069wt_1189
