  1. Right then, what's the plan tomorrow?! Gotta get another one in, surely it can;t be that time already?!
  2. Cool, typical that the weather sucked yesterday but was fine today though! Crap when I want to ride, great when I had to work!! Should be the usual on Saturday though hopefully, and possibly a ride in the week too if I can be bothered and there's a few people about. When are you back at school? (Mwahahahahaha!)
  3. Haha Well I PMed Tuppers about dates when I posted earlier, and gave him a link to this thread so hopefully he'll be able to shed some light on the situation when he's next online You up for Plymouth sometime this week? Day or night ride, both would be fun!
  4. Hey, it's Tom yeah? On the MBUK forum you said there was one on the 17th, although if you are posting again here then I don't know what happened with that. I'll PM Matt Tupman for you (organiser) and see if he knows... Luke (24" in Plymouth...)
  5. Who posted in: The Girl Trouble Thread Poster/Posts anzo/51 poopipe/42 Has anyone seen my shoe?/38 the_soon_to_be/35 radical rider/25 merlin_rider/22 Simon/17 Davetrials/16 Charel/15 JoeMaher/14 Smo/14 Synergy/14 So, is it that anzo has the most trouble with the women, or is it a case of being a whiney bugger (Only joking bud, but that's a lot of posts in one thread!) Sure it's because you are the most helpful guys really
  6. The rear spacing is the same as BMX which I believe is what Mods run, so hub choice isn't really limited as you have hubs from both sides there
  7. Awesome! Best of the Internet material...
  8. Pete, I'm assuming you're on aboout Darren's, which (other than what he's changed) is absolutely fine really. Rides quite nicely IMO, and I like the 116mm spacing/horizontal dropouts etc Oh, and it's Lada
  9. Looks lovely mate, you gonna be out on it next Saturday? Also, have you stripped down the front wheel there too, or is it a different one?
  10. Darren (guy I ride with) has one, and it's a lovely bike. Changed the gearing by a tooth or so I think, and had a few problems with the rear wheel, although that was down to knocks rather than parts problems, so he now runs a Try-All on Profile (also just died ) De-stickered it soon as he got it, then changed to a Magura Julie up front, which he absolutely loves! Few issues with the rear Maggie, but that's not to do with the bike as a whole, just something weird with his bleeds I believe All in all he completely loves the bike I think, and I know he'd recommend it, but as said before, it's complete only so if you are after just the frame you may have some problems
  11. Looks very Norco-esque, although something tells me it's not from them. Extremely tidy though, like that a lot. Kinda bringing trials back in line with the street scene again IMO. (As in Street-street, not Trials-street)
  12. Hey, Riding wasn't too shabby, but the track didn't go with it, the quality was poor (watched the google version so there may be re-sizing issues that I'm unaware of) and there was no helmet in sight! Personal opinion, but you posted it on an open forum so you've gotta expect it... Like I said though, riding was good
  13. Hope you were talking about the vid and not the brake Looking good Biggy, sorted out the lack of fluid after the Plymouth ride then (Did Prawn ever get his comeuppance [sp?])
  14. Yeah, been running Moto Diggers on mine for a year or so now, lovely. Only problems being they are fairly tight on the rim (I'm running Tioga DHs) and they have a fairly thin/soft sidewall which is a bit annoying I'd definately run them again though, when these wear down eventually...
  15. Erm, once more round the sun dude congratulations... Hope you've had a good day, and that you have a good night too!
  16. After that post, and the fact you only joined the other day, and the fact you clearly haven't read/taken note of the rules, I'd say quite a long time...

    New Frames

    Remember seeing this on the site a while back and loving it then, but seeing the new frame built and finished (as opposed to just the brown one up there, as that was a one-off with 360 dropouts etc if I remember rightly) is awesome! Nice and clean and simple Good work
  18. www.graffics.co.uk (I think that's right anyway, see Bigman's sig...) Sure that they could do something to help if you drop them a line
  19. Just because you are in NMC doesn't mean you can't read posts from the rest of the forum though (if I remember correctly) Make sure you are searching "All Forums" next time maybe?
  20. I'm going to Bristol! Move up on 1st/2nd Oct, studying Mathematical Engineering (basically, I can do a bit of maths, so this way I can do bikes too ) Staying at 61/63 St Michael's Hill (Right next to the Engineering dept. unlike the halls ) Gonna be awesome. Also, I'm really keen to look at building/making a few different parts and stuff when I'm there, so if there's a few of us about then anyone else who fancies it, we should hook up and do that as well as the obligatory rides Don't know if I'm gonna take a bike for the first few weeks or so 'till I'm sorted and sussed the place out a bit though.
  21. Ok, so it may not quite show what I look like all that well, however it is the only one I have at the moment, so it will have to do! (taken on a phone, bit shit quality)

  23. Dumbledore Don't worry about the whole surname thing, as changing it later will be hassle Just "Dumbledore" On a more serious note, how about Alfred?
