not been on here in a while! currently trying to sell my immaculate Forester STI import http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/4261157.htm check it out! Fantastic car to drive, plenty power and handles very well for such a big car

Not your best vid Ben, bit too much on the back wheel, dare i say boring? Great riding of course, just not your best one

Black Trialtech forged sport stem ordered today Cheers, loving it so far!

Cheers! Rode this yesterday and feels super New stem might be on the cards though, i'm almost 6'3" so feels a touch cramped, haha

The crank was catching the slave cylinder on the drive side after fitting new pads with my old frame, so it look some the paint off the brake The tyres I really like, ran loads of different tyres, maxxis/conti etc but these are very grippy!!! Stem, may have to change it yeah, liked the setup on the czar but this has more BB rise, guess i'll find out how it rides today, heaving of rain last night so couldn't try it Cheers for the comments

Well snapped my 2nd CZAR 26" this week so got this, just waiting on an adjusting collar for my HD rear axle then can fit that on too! Competing at ft bill in 2 weeks, can't wait Cheers to Tarty for the quick dispatch of the frame + other parts recently Speedrace fans frame echo urbans Chris king headset Chris king cassette lockring Chris king classic hubs on try all rims Bontrager tyres Trialtech lite 16T sprocket Middleburn cranks with heatsink 18T setup KMC chain try all pedals echo TR snails bontrager race x-lite stem Rockman 7075 bars Magura with rockman blues and echo SL lever Hope mono trials disc

I was horassed into commenting, couldn't deal with the wrath of Towler if i never...... Nice riding! Shame you can never pull those street moves when i'm about

Engine: Petrol Size: 1.6 16v DOHC vtec Model: EK9 Civic type R Driving Conditions: Town + mostly country road Combined MPG: Somewhere between 20 and 26 MPG, always ran on Shell V-Power since i had it imported Comments: Keep revs below 3.5k until water temp is up, then below 5k until oil temp up then drive it according to conditions, see's alot of vtec and serviced regularly! Wouldn't have bought the car i did if i was concerned about fuel consumption. Best i've had out of a full tank (40 litres) was 270 miles

if you guys are still about in town about 5.30 on the Sunday i'll meet up after work, finish at 5 and will go straight out after

haha yeah pretty clean as the frame is only a few weeks old!

well so far this year i've had a bit of fun with cracking parts...... cracked my old Toxsin frame so bought Ben's old Czar, cracked my front Hope mono trials caliper then got it warrantied, cracked my Czar frame but Tarty sorted me out with a good deal on a new frame (thanks again Adam!!!), destroyed my old Echo rear rim and when i stripped it down noticed i had cracked my King classic hub but luckily got this warrantied anyways just recently added a few new bits - Tryall rims, Plazmatic CRM pads (AMAZE), Deore QR skewers instead of rubbish kf ones, Bontrager race X lite stem, Rohloff Speedhub tensioner, brought the weight down to 23.5 pounds..... rides sooo good now, loving it

just thought i would update this....... sent the brake to Hope last Tuesday and recieved the brake back yesterday with a new caliper and pads fitted as well as the brake all bled up etc, feels like new again, all done free of charge under warranty, WOOP!!!

as mentioned you need the avid bleed kit, comes with 2 syringes which have threaded attatchments, 1 screws into the lever and the other on the caliper, very clean and easy, only takes about 10 mins to do no way to adjust lever pull on the 5's although bleeding the system (if you do it properly) usually helps, Avid say that a well bled brake should pull back so that the lever is parallel to the bar when on oh and to clear it up the avid bleed kit fits ALL avid hydro brakes

you did indeed ben "hey shove whats that awful cracking noise" "meh kinda got used to it"
