    Why not just buy the bits you need as you need them?

    Becuase they cost like up to £10er for some of them big spanners. It would cost me a lot more buying sepratly. But i soppose i wunt need allll that stuff but still i migth one day (Y)

    EDIT:

    All you need;

    BB tool,

    Crank extractor,

    Cassette lockringtool and chainwhip,

    one spanner for pedals,

    4,5,6,8mm allen keys

    But it would cost up to £20 something for just that. And i can still think of stuff i would need really.

    I was waiting for someone to pos that. But i was wondering what the tools are like and if other people think it is worth it ? I might jsut be wrong in saying that i think it might be worth it, it might jsut be crap.

    Opinions please

  12. Single Speed Or Gears?

    in Trials Chat

    Posted

    I like single speed a little bit better i soppose. i am running that on my DH bike and trials bike. I like it more because it doesn't bend and break as much. I jsut think it is less hasle. but i do like gears becuase it is easier to pedal and you can have it in all diffrent ratios so...

  21. My Freeride Bike

    lower the seat, pull back your handlebars (its not a trials bike) and change the seat angle to 90 degrees with the seat post. apart from that -its nice! (Y)

    The seat doesn't need lowering, it's a freeride bike they all are sopposed to have the seat high. Bit i have to agree i would have them bars back abit but i soppose it probably his style he likes :P" Also the seat needs to stay like it is because its not a DJ bike you need to have the seat on 180 degree angle like it is.

    Anywayyy... Nice bike i should be getting a new FR bike soon :P
