  1. Some fork manufacturers use a hard anodizing process for the sliders on there suspension forks. hopefully that clears up the confusion. rough up the inside of the stem should fix your problem
  2. There's good power, but i find the pads knock in the caliper so much it sounds awfull. if your going to use them on a 20" bike there fine. but i don't know how well they work on larger wheel sizes
  3. but the deore does have servo wave.http://m.pinkbike.com/photo/9792117/ unless the box they come in is lieing
  4. Any of the new Shimano brakes will be great from deore up quick specs: deore, servo wave and lever position adjust slx, all the above + ceramic pistons and brake pads with cooling heat sinks, toolless lever position. zee, all the above + 4 piston calipers (no cooling heat sinks) xt, all the above + bite point adjust (2 piston) saint, all the above, 4 piston and heat sinks the lot. xtr, 2 piston all ceramic pistons, and lots of weight shaved in all areas
  5. i do like Honda just a bit
  6. Front disc sell your maggies to buy new vee brake cable and pads
  7. Get a nokon just for fun only £45 http://www.windwave.co.uk/Products.aspx?ProductID=5758160
  8. Ring or email betd/goldtech, they will sort it you will just need two sets of shock bushes and hardware. just tell them what frame and what year, and the shock you have to fit. http://www.mountainbikecomponents.co.uk/items.asp?CategoryID=92&Name=Strong+Bushes
  9. Tarty bikes link in the top right of the screen. they do three or four light 24" rear rims. bonz, viz, echo ect...
  10. The pro 2 uses a light alloy axle all you need are a set of ti m10 bolts instead of the heavy steel ones.
  11. yes when there worn i do. they usualy done ware our much when i keep replacing chains regular. i have no problem with proper maintenence.
  12. Those tank chains and hx610 chains will fit the bill. i use a kmc710 sl but i must say i visialy check each link before each ride and if there are any marks i replace the chain, sounds expencive but i still only replace it every 2-4 months
  13. I would like to know what's wrong with 29er's any way?
  14. Yep its a 15" 29er and a rsp (Raleigh special products) dropper imo quite a good little dropper if you need one to fit 27.2 i got regected for the job as a oumpalumpa and ewock for being too tall
  15. I went as a witness to a gently car crash the other week. once he realized 15 witnesses turned up he plead guilty. what happened that day was turn up 9am you go through a security check they x ray your shit and metal decteror you. then you get shown to the witness room where there maybe defence and prosecution witnesses there so if your worried someone you don't really want to see is there say to the witness support guys first. once your in the witness room you just have a cuppa read your statement to yourself bit of a recap. they may show you the court before you go in if you ask. and then if it goes that far you go to court and you basicly get quizzed on what you said in your statement. by the defence and prosecution lawers. Once that's over you may go home.
  16. I could not resist showing you lot my 29er I know you will hate the mudguards but they keep the best part of the winter trails out of my eyes
  17. specs are : wheels hope pro2 on viz 24" rims Brakes hope trial zone 180 rotors drive tryall bb, kmc sl chain, bodged cranks echo/raceface 18t sprocket and halo fat foot 14t finishing kit, tryall elite bar, tryall forged stem, hope headset, inspired element forks, gusset pivotal seat post, federal lacey seat, hope f20 pedals, odi grips, maxxis and schwalbe tyres
  18. I have two frames an ozonys king of dunce and a jaf custom +100 bb few pics here
  19. Looking good Dave i really want to come play pallets now
  20. Chris akrigg is at the top of all my lists, he bosses all. except the mega avalanche because my boss beat him at that
  21. those giant hubs are these as standard. you can unscrew the lock ring and fit any shimano cassette spocket to it. i would use a halo fat foot cog u would need a 23t cog thou. surely do a 22T cog http://www.ison-distribution.com/english/product.php?part=CSSUS13
  22. Normaly a 26" trial bike uses a 18x15 gearing, your probably better buying a longer chain and fitting a larger tear spocket
  23. I found chicken wire to work well but not last, the sand and paint will work fine just sand the wood back a bit first t help the paint stick so it lasts well you only need to sand it may f your pallets have already got slippy stuff grown on them. if there fresh pallets no need to sand them.
  24. Look.....look at the wire behind the pot pouri its smiling at you. that's strange, nice bike though. how are the new bars feeling
