  1. Right basically im going to buy a Ipod Nano 8GB. i have found a guy selling them on ebay for Stupidly low prices. If you look HERE It has a starting bid of £29.99. Now i know its from hong kong, but i cant see anything that i wouldnt trust? can you? any help much appreciated! cheers.
  2. Great idea Craig! I agree with Partz. somewhere like addingham would be great, if it wasnt at addingham, somewhere in that sort of area as it makes it a reasonable distance for all, if it was at london, it would be a hell of a way for the lads from Aberdeen etc. I understand koxx days if further for a lot of people, but IMO it would be sensible to try to have it fairly central UK. Cheers
  3. nah its not my new king hub. its a long story that you guys probably wont understand but im building a new wheel for my motorbike using the new hub that came on the bike and a montesa rim which has a flange that the spokes go onto rather than going through the rim. this way you dont have to faff on sealing rim tapes etc. but... the rim is 36hole and the hub is 32. so i need to know how its done because like i say im sure it has been done before. if not it looks like im stuck with a gas gas rim
  4. Right. i have a 32 hole hub that i need to build onto a 36 hole rim. I know there has been mention of this before on here so im pretty sure it can be done. if so... how? thanks for all help.
  5. yey im excited lol. ive just ordered it. Cant wait
  6. Thanks for all the replys dudes. im busy ordering one from aspire now but i have one problem. paypal say that today (2/1/07) the exchange rate is 1 Pound Sterling = 1.89651 US Dollars. however google says 1 British pounds = 1.96100 U.S. dollars. this makes the price £6.11 more expensive. is this normal for paypal to try and make their little bit on the conversion rate or should i wait till tomorrow and see what its like? or am i being a tight b*****d and not willing to pay £6 odd more? lol cheers.
  7. OK. Basically im mad keen on getting a Chris King BMX hub for my zoo. Its a long story but my gran has recently given me my 16th birthday present. which for all of her grand kids, she puts £5 a month into a bank account from the day we are born, and that is given as our 16th birthday present. With the money i really fancy a chris king bmx hub because im far too daft to put it away and save it for later on in life. lol. I was just wanting peoples opinions on the bmx hub. is it basically a 20" version of the single speed hub? because my mates single speed one on his stock is beautiful. thanks for any opinions etc given.
  8. http://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?id=331 get one of them, i never looked back, and bloody cheap!!
  9. Hopefully going to have a drive down with trials dave should be good, i think it'll be better this year because its not a world round, therefore they'll show off more etc. Should be a good atmosphere
  10. Looks hellish mate i say you should get it, well worth the money IMO.
  11. Validate!!!! I beleive this guy knows what hes doing and took the time to write that!!
  12. Hi, basically im selling a gas gas on ebay and someone has said to me that they are very interested but confused because it looks exactly the same as a bike advertised elswhere. this is where im slightly worried, because i know that no one else could possibly have the bike up for sale etc and that i have only put it on ebay. He has put a link in his message <SCAM LINK REMOVED> but im scared to click the link incase its a virus or something do i just ignore the e-mail?? any help appreciated. thanks
  13. Looking good Craig I see you've got rid of the mono trial!!! hope you enjoy it as much as the Adamant!
  14. some people use grease etc on pistons but as a bike mechanic myself (mototbikes and pushbikes) i would only EVER use the type of brake fluid that the system uses to lubricate the pistons. as you can imagine, the brake is run on dot fluid because thats what the seals are made for, therefore some other lubricants can nacker the seals.
  15. i got a nice set off ebay for a few quid
  16. can you not find a pic of how you want them then just copy it cant be that hard surely is it?
  17. somebody needs a shaaaaveeee hehe, looking good Joe, id say go a tiny bit bigger, but not too much
  18. your brake levers are on the wrong side looks very nice though mate
  19. Would you not be best to e-mail or ring hope? because there cant be many people on here with vernier (sp?)calipers to measure them accurately. Just an idea, and hope will give you a 100% accurate answer.
  20. my marta sl did the same (but to a alloy lever, not the sl carbon one) and i got a pair, so if you need i can sell you one as i have a spair(Y)
  21. Id suggest the scudo(Y) my dads company ran these back when he was the boss and they were great vans. fairly fast aswell actually and really reliable etc.
  22. the parents have plain and simply said no i suppose ive got a good excuse for getting them to take me places now plus when i think about it properly, the only times i really go far are when im goin out with the zoo or gas gas, which scooters arent really made to carry so basically, no scooter for me. But ill be getting driving lessons for my 17th birthday, just 1 year and 4 days untill im on the roads. hehe
  23. Right, on the 21st ill be 16, and im really wanting a mode of transport. The parents are not keen on me getting out on the roads on a scooter but i feel that if i come up with some figures they may be swayed (hopefully). So im looking for a few answers. Scooter. ovbiously got to be 50cc, and restricted to 30mph or whatever it is but what is a good one? I know everything about bikes etc so i dont mint maintanence but dont want one falling to bits on me. Ill need a road legal helmet etc i know. CBT training? How much? Insurence, again, how much? i think thats it, but all details etc are much appreciated. Cheers
