    Drill My Rim

    a hole saw is a drill bit that can be attatched to (nearly) every drill. but you might have known that?

    oh yeah, good point. you might wanna measure how big you can get away with or just what size you think you can get away with.

    Drill My Rim

    I find a decent hole cutter works better than a drill bit. first drill a pilot hole to guide the drill bit in the hole cutter. Then finnish the job by cutting the holes with the hole cutter. I recken about 20mm or 22mm holes would be good in the back, maybe 13-15mm in the front. You dont need to dimantal the wheel, just do it from the out side to inside. dont forget to get rid of the burrs with a fine or sand paper. hope that helps
  5. I use 661 rajis They are REALLY light REALLY thin and in summer REALLY cool, BUT they dont last me very long, I go through about 4 in a year. They cost about £20ish. The feel they give is amazing! they are just like an extra layer of skin rather than a glove, soooooo comfy. They only downer is that they dont last long, but then again, all the gloves I have used in the past have lasted about the same length of time. I would like to try the Hebo gloves next if they are as good as mr Mark says. Actually, I wouldnt mind trying some gloves with a carbon nuckle, I am alway gouging my flesh when riding natual, it might come in useful if some punk trys to knick my bike too (N)

    Tyke Trial

    nope, Carol is leaving too, shame as she did a hell of a lot of work for the club, it will be hard to replace her.
  11. I think the mounts that way would be mint! you could even then weld a booster to the seatstay brace thing and make it even stiffer. Although, that would then be compying my designs :-" but I could forgive you (N)

    I think I might be going
  16. yeah I did, I would post again but I cant find my pics :blink:
  17. they copied my frame design!!!! ohwell, I (meaning tarty on CAD) decided the bb area wouldnt be strong enough :(" as for the rest of it, I aint too keen to be honest, cant wait till we see the prices, I am sure that will make it all better lol :( :-
  18. bike 1) lovely :- I love its looks, I also like the seatstay area but its hard to tell whats happening because of the gloss black paint. bike 2) not my cup of tea, I never really liked the coust frame design, this is an uglier virsion bike 3) less keen on this one, it kinda looks like what the terminator would ride, surly the more parts then the more there is to go wrong? bike 4) this is more like it :( its got more traditional looks, not too keen on the dropouts though Bike 5) Sorry, not keen on this at all! If the dictionary had pictures next to its words, that would be with Ugly. I think Frame number one, with the carbon top tube of number 4, one piece bb/yolk and possibly the brake mounts of 3 (if it works well) would be a top frame!!!!

    Model Kits

    a big fast looking one, with lots of parts, hard dificulty level etc etc, I want it to take me a while to do. or an equally big, hard motocross one (though, I doubt it exists :S )

    Model Kits

    I "specificly" want some addys, or just names even of some decent model shops, not just the ones that do the die-cast £5 jobbies and already built models. edit again: thats more like it, they look the part! Good job trialsboy560 :S

    Model Kits

    Model Kits

    I have been searching google for hours now trying to find somwhere that sells model kits but without any luck. I am after either motorbikes (I would love a crosser or trials one if they exist?) or racing cars, the bigger the better, I just want somthing to build and possibly paint because I need somthing to do! so if anyone knows any shops that do these kind of things, can you let me know please. Ta (a very bored) Al
  23. good luck finding an inner tube that will hold it :o too late
  24. oh my god!!!!!! koxx have stolen my frame design!!!!1111!!11 I must have done that design over a year ago, Tarty tryed to build it in CAD but then decided it wouldnt work too well as the bb shell would fall off. Oh, and the site is crap, I went on once and I wont be going on again :o
  25. what were the results from last years outdoor champs? there was no coverage about it whatso ever!
