Yeah sort of, but i havent been trying to drag it yet incase the whole thing turns to dust! lol OK hopefully they will stop wearing so quick then... ill test them out tomorrow and ill make sure i keep looking at them. I'm not sure how much mine have actually worn, but theyve got a slight angle from where they touch my rim (very very slight), and the yellow dust cant be good

I got some plazzy CRM pads from prawny and my brake is pretty good, makes a good old honking noise anyway . I rode it for a little while on my drive though, and the pads seem to be wearing very fast theres bits of pad coming off and its all over my rim - a yellow dust . I've not had plazmatic pads in ages but i cant remember this ever happening before... I did a medium grind on my ALEX DM24 rim, ill take some sandpaper out when i next ride to lighten it up a bit incase it keeps wearing quick. Anyway...is this normal? Maybe its just a bedding in period? They also feel very soft to touch with your finger nail... Cheers.

That was reeeeeeeeally good i well prefer vids like that to the ol' hop off the biggest wall you can find style ones. That roll backwards to backwheel up thing was amazing, i need to try and learn that... So smooth nice one

Bit disappointing from a selfish buyer point of view but yeah fair enough to hope, i'm sure theyll still do free services for goods under warranty, just wont fix abused hubs for free. I send my hope trial disc back before christmas when i'd landed on it and pulled the lever blade so the 'TPA pin' came out and the washer broke, they fixed it absolutely free - brilliant About this king axle stuff - king give you a free one if you break it? if so do you just send your hub/axle to the USA and they send a new one back? Cheers. Noz.

I'm there About 11 at the station then

Lol i was using an X instead of * then remembered :$ its for my a2 ict project
-
Wow thats high good job! do you do it on a daily basis or anything? i hardly ever use mine, i might start making it a habit of doing it once in the morning, then for about 15 mins in the evening or something to build up some strength

Never mind, fixed. T'was just [Cost]*[Quantity]

'Ellooooo I've got a small question for my ICT coursework database. I'm not sure what syntax to use, i want to multiply 2 values in a report. Basically i've got a quantity of equipment, and the cost of the individual equipment. I want to multiply these numbers to get a total cost for each piece of equipment, and then have another calculation for working out the total cost for the entire order. I know how to do the total cost - just using =Sum([Cost]) but im not sure on the syntax for a multiplication? I want to X [Quantity] and [Equip cost]. Cant seem to find it in the book. Thanks for any help Noori

Theres some in the centre, theres some good spots that are part of oxford university, and you can travel out and theres decent stuff aswell, a masonry place nearby with some rocks and stuff to play on, not too far to travel between each place either
-
oooh i will if i can get some mates to come oxfords great, the stone circle is OK, gets boring after 30 mins, theres looooooads more great spots

I just use a syringe and find it easier, you can get cheapo syringes at vets or whatever, about 10p. Can also do it while still on the bike. Unscrew TPA. Turn lever parallel to floor. Unscrew slave cylinder bleed bolt. Fill syringe with water and screw in tight. Unscrew grub screw at lever. Screw in clear tube. Get someone to hold bottle to catch fluid at lever, and hold up bike, and tap the hose. Gently let fluid through with the syringe. Depending on the size of the syringe, you might need to bleed several times. To do this i just take the syringe off (but NOT the plastic hose that attaches to the syringe. Then get someone to put their finger on top of the plastic syringe hose to stop fluid escaping, and then fill syringe and put it back on. Then do it all up again, and your sorted, perfect bleed Then use listerine anyway. Toxic? Isnt it just vegetable oil?

You cant use the running machine comparison, because your legs are controlling your speed, youd have to be on rollerblades with the rope

Happy birthday woo hoo im 18 on march 12th

Damn, i was hoping id catch someone out

Yeah i get it.....doesnt matter at all about the speed or direction of the conveyor belt, doesnt effect it in any way Heres another riddle There’s a two-story barn that is facing east to west. If the wind is blowing at 25 mph from the north, and a rooster lays an egg on the very peak of the roof of the barn… Which side of the barn will the egg roll down and fall off of? The left side, or the right side?
-
Yeah i already read the answer and everything......but just thought it wouldnt actually be doing any resistance, so if thats the case its a total no brainer, the conveyor belt helps it move...
-
Wait a sec, surely if the conveyer belt is going in the opposite direction to the plane, itll be helping the wheels go forward... dunno if you guys thought about that? just came into my head
-
That guy sells LOADS, i looked at one of them on time with about 20 purchases, and around 15 had been bought...he must make some serious cash out of selling shitty tar....

The plane does take off, and it doesnt need any extra thrust to take off, it just does it as normal. All this stuff about air and lift doesnt matter, all that matters is whether the plane travels forward or not, and it DOES, so it DOES take off. The wheels are totally irrelevent (assuming the hubs are friction-less), the engines are what matters, and the conveyor runway doesnt effect the engines. Plane speed isnt controlled by the wheels, they are totally free-spinning. So, the conveyor belt is going backwards at the same speed as the PLANE, NOT THE PLANES WHEELS, this means the wheels are being pushed backwards and so are spinning because of the friction on the conveyor belt and wheel surface. The engines still provide the thrust, and so the plane speeds up, and so does the conveyor belt. As it speeds up, the conveyor belt continues to speed up, so the wheels must move twice as fast in order to counteract the conveyor belt. Thats because the friction on your feet are controlling your speed. Thats why a car wouldnt go forward on this conveyor belt. No, the conveyor belt doesnt move at the same speed as the wheels.
-
Yeah that works if the conveyer belt moves at the speed of the wheels, it doesnt. As tomm said, if it moved at the speed of the wheels it would stay still or whatever. It's moving at the speed of the PLANE. NOT THE WHEELS.

Ahh ok yeah, but that was just an example i made up myself
