fook knows how I download and play those, thanks for finding them though.

squishier than a elasticated toad!

Amily (or somthing like that) Pretty random film! in french with english subtitles, plot was a bit confusing, random french girl doing random stuff to make random people happy, then finds out she needs to make herself happy too and goes on a big "find me if you can" with some bloak who likes to collect discarded photos from photo booths. shes pretty cute though, so that bumps the score up, so I give it 7-10

spongy as a water soaked stoat!

haha, trust you to only film me when I dont make it up things bruno is a beast, that first tap is huuuuge, mid 50s easily, was hard enough to hook!

oh my god!! I would sell my teeth to play that game again!!! I only have vague memoris of it, I remember the opening vid to be really funny, wandering around on levels for ages then fiding rocket boots and flying around like a bat out of hell! or finding an inflatable thing and going swimming. oh my god!! finding the secret place with a jucuzzi and bar where you would get drunk or somthing, that was ace!! found a link to a vid of the game!! streets of rage was awesome! so was golden axe (found it hard though) and micheal jacksons game! or raging beast! Sonic was always the best though, the first one was the best of the lot too!

snowing a good'un here now

and I'll talk for everyone and say BRUNO IS A MACHINE!! Couldnt believe it when he tapped that wall we were all hooking, must have been near 60"!!

awesome pics Chris, your really good at the art of photographing! Was a cool day, bruno is a sound guy and a beast of a rider, I was happy with some of the stuf I did, got to met a lot of friends, all good.

very cool tom, your gaps are rather large see you at the next comp dude!

Bruno's awesome!!!

run out of my pads for now

its all fun, but your right and I dont want anyone (craig!) to take this the wrong way, but I do really hate the way pythons ride anyway, less about pythons, more about ashtons!

shut thy face, I said it better

is it me or are they swearing lots? Clarkson is quality, I would know I am one

put the forks, headset and spacers on as you will be having them, put the stem on and get a small screwdriver and put it in the slot in the back of the stem above the top bolt, spin the stem around and that scratches a perfect line at the correct hight to cut. to put the star nut down, pop a bolt in it and just whack it down with a hammer, try to keep it straight, but its no big problem if its a tiny bit out.

think someone actually has a pic of me on a python! Had a ride on the bike today, its soooo freakingly awesome!! did some taps I have never done before and did it in the dark too lol. Vid soon

spanish flys are grabby as fook on a smooth rim, but pretty mushy too. get some alloy backings and get some rock pad greens and put the material in, that would be super powerful

cable is fairly important, but its the last on the list of importance...yeh. You want a cable to be stiff in compression, linear slick cables are like gear cables with strands running the whole length, normal cables have a spiral going around the whole way which compressed like a big spring and makes the brake mushy.

will work fine on a narrow rim, but they are fairly wide and reduce the width of rim you can use. Plus they then allow the pad to wobble like a maggie brake reducing pad life, bite and hold, getting an alloy backing and putting what pad material you want is much better. anyway, brake wise you cant go wrong with avids, they have arms and levers for every price range.

good setup at decent price: avid sd7 arms and lever, linear slick cable, plaz crvs or some heatsink backings with your choice of pads in (better than using the onza pad adaptors) You will also need an brake adaptor, heatsink gets my vote.

the old frame with a 1050 wheelbase and 73 head angle was one of the longer frames out there reach wise! If it had a 1080 wheelbase and 73 head angle you woul need arms like gorrillas to ride it! I wanted this geo (as well as gav bedford) as it will help with comps, the slack head angle is loads better for taps and roll downs and the reach is still short enough for it not to be a pain to get on the rear. the disk mount isnt final, I will advise martyn to either have a beefier one on or non at all. Glad people are liking it though!

it is pimped! ti or alloy bolts thoughout, ti bb, ti cogs, carbon hope leverblade, carbon stem (not shown in pics, for comps only), ti pedal axles (when I can find a 9mm socket) Thanks for the comments though, will try and get some better pics tomorrow.

pics in bike pics forum! my mounts are JUST wide enough, but ideally I still want to make some more, but I can measure them myself now, thanks anyway
