  1. Just checked the tracking on a package that I was awaiting delivery by ParcelF***wits on a 48h service, apparently they attempted to deliver it earlier in the week; no "we attempted delivery" card. Lucky I checked! Dopey useless, inept arseholes!
  2. No.... I think it was a fair comment. Seen quite a few people run a small bash like a TT Ti or similar mounted ebtween the BB and frame. I think i looks really good if you've got a clean crank/ring setup (by the sounds of it you do) as the bash is pretty much hidden from the dirve side.
  3. I'd check what compound the A048s are, the old man uses them on his hill climb car and the softs he uses are very very soft. 15 minutes on hot tarmac in the sun can be too long and you end up leaving patches of rubber stuck behind as you roll away. Just something to bare in mind

    Films!?

    I loved it too, so so dry. Watched it after having a Flight Of the Conchords binge, so was perfectly in the mood for it. Watch Inherent Vice the other day, funny film and a bit bizarre. Definitely enjoyable and worth a watch Also watched Black Sea, which was ok; but there just didn't seem too much development to the story line. All a little predictable, but an easy watch none the less.
  5. Hey we've got to get something productive done at work today! Need to get out this office for a coffee meeting to dicuss "work" this week.
  6. Not surprised you're finding it difficult to find one, they were released 6 years ago. They seem to have silver rear rims here: http://www.trialprod.com/en/273-echo-sl-rear-rim-26.html
  7. I was more thinking that the rock on your windowsill hasn't moved in that time, but the colour of the window sill has
  8. Apart from the Schwalbe (which you don't get on with) you're best trying to hunt down a Maxxis Highroller, you will pay through the nose for it though and you'll most likely have to get it shipped from Europe. http://www.racingtrials.es/epages/225555.sf/en_GB/?ViewObjectPath=%2FShops%2F225555%2FProducts%2F0408 http://www.trial-bikes.com/maxxis-high-roller-24x250-tyre-p-536579.html
  9. Adam is going to go all Brangelina on us?!
  10. It looks like a small air shock, not an elastomer. Hardly similar to the Leeson head tube set up either! Whatever it is though I really hope it is a mistimed April fools, certainly doesn't look like it should be taken seriously.
  11. Makes a massive difference in my old mans hill climb car. It's fitted with a Cusco master cylinder brace that fits under the front strut brace on the drivers strut tower. Without it you can watch the BH flex 5-10mm, with it its rock solid.
  12. Unless they switch back to aluminium or plan on improving their carbotecture material then I don't see Magura reclaiming the crown of the trials riders choice of brake. Don't lie to us! Surely not?
  13. Pretty sure it won't be a normal clear lacquer on them, no guarantees if you spray them up with a normal lacquer that it won't react with what is there/ the carbon/ resin etc.

    What didn't you understand?
  15. What that sucks balls, hopefully the issue will become obvious and be an easy fix. I was looking at the ST kit, need to buy some LCR top mounts and should be good to fit everything the easter BH weekend. as long as my VCDS cable gets here in time...
  16. What's wrong with yours still then Luke? MAF no good? Some advice from the VAG lot, looking to buy coilovers or shocks and spring for the A3; looking to spend 4-500 ish and has to fit a LCR. Any reccomendations?
  17. It's a MOD 19" rear 20" front.

    Really enjoyed this, was a well written and acted twist on the normal time travel theme. Came across as a much truer representation of what it would have been like. The end battle scene is just savage.
  19. It's so god damn light! Think Joe said it came in at 7.7Kgs. Only had a little bounce in a car park on this, looking forward to seeing Joe get some decent rides on some rocks with this!
  20. Use Cousts on my 20" with K2 rims. Awesome brakes, something on yours isn't right...
