Here's an option: http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?id=10105 Or as a pair: http://tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?id=10106 Cheers Adam

Pretty much As the Big Man has said though, 4x 36h with butted spokes will be just great, and you won't have to worry about snapping spokes. Adam
-
As has been said, ours has been measured with Echo Urban forks (and an Echo headset if you want to be 100% anal). I believe the geo of the production frames is slightly different to the proto versions. Cheers Adam

I would have thought they should, however I have heard of standard cyanoacrylates (superglue) being used before. Still does a great job though.
-
The glue is made by Loctite, and specially formulated for gluing metal to plastic Stan's been very impressed with his test set so far, especially in dry weather.

Webcam quality *** My writing's always been criticised right through school, my girlfriends mum who is a primary school teacher says I need lessons - apparently my letter formation is totally to pot

Looking beasty Pierre Reckon you can get another set of links out of that chain? Might be worth a try..!

That would be no problem providing the ZOO headset is 'as new' Ads

We have arranged with Bruno for TartyBikes to be exclusive UK distributor for the Ozonys brand. Bruno will be over here 17th/18th March for some riding and business. Also see Shipley Glen ride topic: http://www.trials-forum.co.uk/forum/index....showtopic=93612 Cheers Adam

I have been informed in the past and read that it is 2 degrees (ISIS 1 degree for the fact-hunters out there) but haven't got the stuff to measure right now... If I get a few mins after work I'll get my trig hat on and play with some maths
-
JIS appears to be 1/2" (all the caliper measurements I'm getting are around 12.72mm), but not got any ISO BBs here. Ads
-
I think Sheldon might have the answer... If its of use there are no trials cranks that I can think of to use the ISO taper!
-
The original T1000 is already sold out throughout Europe, there will be no more of that model made.
-
They do indeed... just to make things more confusing for you Value for money, the DX32 is my recommendation. For strength the Echo rim wins. Try-All 47mm if you want a wide, light rim for competition-type use. Revell if you want a Try-All thats a bit stronger. Try-All 42mm if you want something a bit wider than a DX32 but still really tough! Hope that helps, Adam

Hello people, Anyone fancy riding Shipley Glen on Saturday 17th March? We'll be looking to get there for around 12 noon. For starters there will be Stan, Ali C, Tarty Dave, Myself and ex World Champion Bruno Arnold of http://www.ozonys.com present, plus whoever else wants to come along - the more the merrier! We're planning a big street ride on the Sunday too, but the venue is still to be decided... if anyone has suggestions for somewhere that's got plenty to ride and not too strict on security that would be great Hopefully see you there!

We have seen this a few times - usually the customer explains to the insurance company that Wheelies are unable to offer a bike comparable in spec to that stolen. From there, a full spec of a replacement bike can be drawn up by a trials store (basically a quote to replace what was stolen). After that, your insurance company will go about trying to find these parts from their usual suppliers, however they always fail due to trials products being so specific - this usually results in you being sent a cheque If you want any more help then just give me a shout Cheers Adam

Claimed by Monty - yes, measured on digital scales - no. As said, the only difference we can fathom is the graphics, which are mightily complex and pricey compared to the old laser etched ones!

All official Onza dealers

The rims on that bike are Try-All, our site lists Echo, however:
-
We already offer that as a service. Free smooth rim brake pads (Rock Vs on V brake bikes, Rock Greens on Magura-equipped bikes) with every complete bike, as Danny said That's the best solution we could come up with. I certainly wouldn't wanna be grinding a customer's rim without their full approval! See above. Cheers for the info Paolo, seems like there are small links - I don't spend as much time grinding aluminium as some people will (welders etc) but I don't wanna be taking any chances! In a typical week I'll probably spend around 30 mins grinding rims, the charges we apply through our website are to cover new discs, eye protection and dust masks. I'm sure there must be some health consequences from inhaling anodising powder too... It certainly makes a right mess of our unit, even the guy round the front of the building who makes ironmongery for a living was shocked at the dust the Echo rims give off! Adam

I think people are comparing the price to 'what you can get them for from the USA'. Obviously that should be subject to customs fees, duty and VAT, making the imported King headset much nearer the UK price. Either way, I can't afford a King, so I'll be popping a Tensile in my headtube, they look extremely well made with good tolerances (digital calipers ) and the spec is very impressive for the price. Adam

Depending on the gear ratio you want to run, something like a DMR Revolver hub and an ACS freewheel is a very cheap yet very tough solution (you can pick up both those items for around £45 including postage!). It would mean running 22-18, however that's a pretty good gear ratio - check the number of teeth on your current drive sprocket. If you're running something like a 20T on the back at the moment, then it would be worth sticking a 20T on your cranks (making your ratio 20-18) and that would match pretty closely... Anyway, I'm waffling now, but you don't specifically need a freewheeling rear hub to ensure a durable and pretty lightweight setup Hope that helps Adam

9.95mm on the Tensile, FSA Pigs are 12mm bottom and 10mm top.

Have a look up a few posts Deonn, it appears the British Biketrial Committee have voted to abolish the gear rule for this year's nationals? At least that's what I can gather.

They need much longer than that to bed in - even when set up perfectly flat they'll need a few weeks... Glad to hear you're liking the RimJams though!
