  1. Just chew them, then they're easy to swallow.
  2. The link won't work because tv.isg has been down since last night.
  3. Thats why theres a references section . If people are bad sellers you'll see in the references before you make your purchase. Its not THAT hard.
  4. Yet another high quality and great looking product. Well done dude! Next jobby for you is heatsink stems
  5. Effectively like a door wedge. They slot over the axle and push against a little bit on the inside of the dropout, the more you twist it, the more it wedges itself in and pushes your axle further back.
  6. Don't ruin your hard work by using movie maker to compress it. Damn thing can't even keep black screen pauses without having a spaz. It also frequently loses sync with the audio and video. Use windows media encoder 9 to encode it properly. Its easy to use and has a lot more features if you feel adventurous. Its also legitimatly free
  7. Does it not get annoying pressing shift at the beginning of every word? Welcome!
  8. I'd imagine the two highlighted sentences would be quite helpful for you to read again. Theres nothing wrong with organising rides, but it seems that the majority of your recent posts have been about rides your trying to organise or unhelpful comments like the ones i quoted. It gives the impression your not very helpful and that your only interested in yourself by sorting out your brighton rides. If someone asks a question give a decent and helpful reply. Tell them what you think, why you think it, mention any past experiences that have lead you to this opinion... just generally advise them in a polite and helpful manner and someone will notice your a thoughtful person and you'll be a member in no time. This is the sort of thing i mean, it shows you've listened to whats been said and are willing to change. I shouldn't think it'll be too long before your a member.
  9. You can never be right about these things because of the level of distortion from enlarging such a small area but it seems to fit this very well as both a grammatical sentence and what appears to be written on the page. I'm 95% confident thats what it says though. Care to give us a larger resolution image craig? The actual picture is very good but its also blocky on my 1280x1024 screen
  10. I don't think i've ever felt that external routing has gotten in the way though.
  11. I think it says "wank" after "f***ing"
  12. woooooah, no need to shout I'd imagine something like a 80-100mm stem with 5 or so degrees of rise with 2-3 5mm stem stackers would be about right then.
  13. Yep, as others have stated, avid's "tri-align" system means that the pads hit the rotor perfectly without the need for facing the mounts.
  14. Its my way of curing lots of things. Its what i always do if ever i feel like that. Does the trick for me despite being MAJORLY hard work.
  15. You'll need to give us a bit more information than that, as there aren't generic stems that you should use for a specific frame. It essentially all depends on: Your height Your riding style (bunnyhops or gaps) What bars your going to be running
  16. The irony of that post made me laugh quite a lot. If you'd have read it you'd know what i was on about. In fact, i even highlighted which bit of his post that i was reffering to.
  17. I guess i'm the only person that didn't really like that video. I mean, fair do's he's 11 and riding very well indeed, by that and his future potential as a rider i was impressed. But the general feel of the video and some of the sketchy clips in the video bored me a lot. Guess he's just got an early start on all this repetitive tap, gap, sidehop riding.
  18. Pressurise it up and no more donwtube dents on rail gaps either I like the ideas on it, although i think i'd have to worry that the strength of the rear setion might be compromised with having so much cut out around the magura clamps... but i guess they've already looked at that. I think its cool to see so much ingenuity on one frame. Although i could see internal cable routing getting annoying personally.
  19. Wrong attitude... ENTIRELY. Its not the quantity of posts that you make at all. Making decent topics is always helpful, but generally being perceived as being a thoughtful and helpful member is what'll get you there. Make a decent post thats well written, accurate and helpful, showing that you are genuinely trying to help and you can be validated with that single post. I would imagine having read through some of your posts that your generally short answers and seemingly lacking want to genuinely help people is whats keeping you here at the minute. Things like: I would imagine, after briefly flicking through your posts and seeing these any moderators would probably leave you in here for a bit longer. You also seem to bump topics which is onyl done in f.s/wtd topics and the majority of things seem to be about getting people to ride in brighton. This isn't me having a go, i just thought it's helpful for you to know how your being perceived and how to change so you can become a member. I know if i'd been in new members for over 250 posts i would like to know why.
  20. I got told off by him for following him all over the internet and bad mouthing him in the bike pics thread on the OCUK forum after i couldn't help but notice one of his bullshit posts. Apparantly he's sponsored by hope, and is a proffesional rider. He's also sponsored by freshproducts and isn't happy because his "prototype" (not a frame made by todge to petes specifications, ordinarily being known as a custom order rather than sponsorship) frame broke and he expected todge to build him a new one. He also mentioned that he broke his leg because his maggie slave broke after he dropped off an 11 foot drop, kept it to back wheel, manualled to the edge of the next roof/large object (i think he said that one was 12 foot) and then dropped off that, at which point his maggie cracked and thats why he broke his leg. Component failure rather than rider error. Other than that, not heard a peep. New members has been a fair bit quiter though, which is nice.
  21. I thought having multiple accounts was frowned upon? Its "spell bad all the time". Theres a whole thing about it in the film kiss kiss bang bang about it being some sort of proverbial pro-noun that contradicts itself or something Theres nothing wrong with the validation system at the minute, the only thing wrong are the idiot new members. Just be HELPFUL to each other, dont make new topics with a question one or two lines long asking what everyone thinks or does about something... its not original, not helpful, and doesn't improve the chance of you getting validated.

    Dude, all your vids are awesome, the new ones are great and the old ones are classics. The riding, filming and choice of songs are always spot on.... Yet again, this one was great, and well worth my 13 second download.
