  1. what colours would be avilable? any chance of purple
  2. Bell sweep XC or Specialized Decibel are pretty comfortable and look pretty sweet imo.

    Ok thats good, its just that the cranks i'm running now go pretty much all the way in, theres like a 2mm gap. So when you say 'when the cranks are new' does that mean it will move closer when it gets older ? also if i don't use the self pulling bolts the crank has a much bigger gap and no matter how hard I hit it it doesn't budge. I'm planning to not use these bolts and run normal ones so my problem is still kinda apparent.

    I tried installing the non driveside crank arm today and it seems that the crank isn't going all the way onto the spindle. No matter how hard I hit the crank theres still about a 1 cm gap. The cranks i'm using now almost go all the way in with no problems but that uses a self extracting/self pulling bolt so since the tensiles also can use these bolts I put them on. So i install the crank with the bolt but it is only slightly better there is still a gap. surely this is not normal ? I mean the splines aren't contacting with the spindle properly. Anyone know whats wrong ? I havn't tried the driveside yet because I'm still waiting for my trackcog.
  6. found it on OT.net. No seat option is kinda weird but it looks nice. http://www.observedtrials.net/vb/showthread.php?t=18271

    Track Cog

    I see, but wouldn't it eventually over tighten and then strip ?

    Track Cog

    I recently got some tensile's and I'm going to run a track cog with them. My question is, do I just thread the track cog on and it stays tight by itself or is there some kind of lockring like the old XTR cranks ?

    is there any other way I can get this vid ? will you be uploading it again ? I'd buy it but I think posting it to Australia will cost more than the DVD it self.
  17. That shop is in Hong Kong and I'm going there in two weeks. I'm getting a pair of tensiles from them for $930 HK which works out to be 69 pounds.
  18. going to get some tensiles, surly cog, new chain, stuff for my other bike and an 5G iPod
  19. Great Vid, loved it. Go Portishead !
  20. what about the new tensiles ? I'm thinking about gettim some of them.
  21. please don't get a frame based on looks because at the end of the day it's how it rides thats more important. You'll look much better being a good rider. I suggest trying high bb frames before buying but if you genuinely think that it'll suit your riding than go for it, it does look pretty damn good
  22. That is one sweet ride and fantastic choice with using vee's, ride it hard mate.
  23. Here are my fav's none that are of me though:
