  1. no way. really. and i thought i had a bad week. how are you feeling. your not goin to be riding for a while are you. what a shame. just joking. a good bit of saracasm. i like it
  2. i think new members only do it as they dont have access to the for sale part.
  3. there perfect. some people use the yik, try-all and monty shoes. these just give extra support
  4. 1. snapped cage pedal. 2. bottom bracket wobbling all over. 3.bent mech and mech hanger 4. oh yeah snapped my frame. so not a good week
  5. since your just about a 6ft lad i think that if you wanted you could get a stock ( the t-rex and muscle it about or you could just get a mod. easier to learn on :unsure:
  6. is it alright having water in your maggie. does it not erode parts. also it isnt much of a lubricant. im still not sure about it. i suppose i could try it and if i dont like it bleed it properly
  7. thats what i was thinking. so does the lever feel spongey at all with water in or is it as good as the maggie blood
  8. hm sounds good. are they any good with water? and also which bolts do you take out?
  9. what about a halo combat with a grind and kool stop pads which will last forever
  10. hey there. yeah you certainly cant go wrong with a pitbull. undestructable and lovely to ride :)
  11. hey. thanks. you've just filled me with confidence. im definitely goin to get the frame now. i'll prefer it not having to do a bodge job or gettin a cheese rim. cheers. by the way looks like youve got a nice ride there. :)
  12. nice one. you've just filled me with confidence. im definitely getting the pitbull now. no bodge job sounds good. looks like you've got a nice ride there aswell. :)
  13. topic stealer. no just joking. i quite fancy the echo rear rim like. any good or not?
  14. i had a avid one on when i had a v brake on the rear. they dont make that much difference i dont think.
  15. awwwwwwwwwww. i got all excited when you said i had been validated. i think im goin to run a bodge job for a while then buy a drilled rim. dont know which one to go for though. which is the strongest?
  16. i would go for the cho team most likely. they are both excellent frames. failing that go for the zoo python
  17. i am going to buy an 04 pitbull frame. i currently have a d521 rim. as the chainstays are wider on the pitbull compared to a saracen mad i was wondering whether i will be able to set my brake up so that it actually reaches the rim (or so i dont have to pull the lever to the bar) because as we all know a d521 is quite a narrow rim? cheers guys
  18. get a decent wheelbuild done. makes all the difference. (Y)
  19. yeah thats exactly where mine snapped. it was only on the ride side though. just under the weld is where it snapped. thw welds look so thin aswell.
  20. oh good. i quite like the new ones they are supposed to ride nice. i just need something so i can ride again. i feel all lost without my bike
  21. a while ago i snapped my 04 saracen mad frame after riding it for 7 month. i sent it back to saracen and i am waiting to hear from them. i was wondering whether anyone else has snapped theirs and whether they heard anything or recieved a replacement frame etc. cheers :'(
  22. going for a gap to front wheel. not making it and face planting a wooden crate at high speed
  23. there is less 2 break on a mod and the wheels are much stronder
