  1. It's the lovely buzzing sound they make. I've made the same switch as Josh and personalyl apart from the noise i prefer the balance having a FFW has of shifting the weight more central. Cheaper to sort/ replace if it goes wrong too.
  2. Looks good, like the new gun metal colour too. Having had a few of the 26" limey 3's, I've always preferred the look of the 20", seems better proportioned for some reason. Now go scratch the shit out of it.
  3. Never mate, you've got my number if you need a hug. Massive sidehop from Joe, is that at the ruins in pompey?
  4. Dave could you or someone get this posted on here so we can view it at work?
  5. Really dont like the look of the frames, but the build and colour scheme are really nice.
  6. Well Joe looks like you'll be having an order from me when they're released. Think the Hydroxx will have died by then anyway. Joe Seddons current frame is lovely, a definite improvement on the previous proto.
  7. If you dont want to buy from Ebay then Rock'n'Roll bikes (Onza) Do the same hubs for £35 posted. At least if you have any issues (which you shouldn't) you can send it to someone in this country/ give them a ring/ go visit the shop. Would be my first choice.
  8. Or it could be taking a while to get some heat into the pads?
  9. Should make a book of Rusevelt's ridiculous quotes. Retard.
  10. Wow, you may have mental health issues; but using it as an excuse and publically wallowing in self pity will not earn you any sympathy or friends. I think Mark covered why what you were saying about the pads made no sense at all, there just wasn't any consistantcy in your argument.
  11. Nice Rich, would have left it white and only you could find snail cams so confusing you put a rohloff on a bike with horizontal dropouts. at least there is no hanger to smash. Hopefully you'll feel a little more comfortable on this one. Get yourself up to Devon soon!
  12. Finish riding at 7, drive home and arrive by 9, quick bite to eat, shower, change and out by 10 at the latest. No excuses.
  13. How long has it lasted? New hub shell?
  14. More to the point its pretty hidden by your chain, crank arm and bash guard. If it was something that was on show then fair enough, colour can be a big factor in your choice. But I think in this case you're thinking about it a bit too much.
  15. Slick stuff, nice flowy stuff. Half naked Skoze= win.
  16. I'm out also, sorry gents. Have a good time.
  17. Rowan's snapped right at the joint between the fork leg and the steerer/crown area. The leg sheared clean off.
  18. Turning into a right lil monster aren't you! Sick stuff mate.
  19. I had 8 weeks in a cast a few summers ago, what i did apart from wanked furiously all the time, becoming a forum troll etc. Was to save up all the Cocodamol that they gave me, just put up with the pain and then in the last few weeks consumed it all. Made those last few weeks of sheer boredom fly by You will go mental i'm afraid, you live in the middle of nowhere? Being unable to get anywhere nearly killed me!
  20. Awesome stuff, some big riding, really flowy. Enjoyed that a lot! Rusevelt, for the love of god and all that is holy, please shut up.
  21. But Nick don't you know, carbon is lighter and therefore obviously lighter than Alu. And all carbon manufacturing techniques haven't improved at all. Carbon can be a viable material, it's not the brittle, impact susceptible material it used to be (well not to the same extent). As Luke said wait for a few "normal" riders to give them a go and see how they do. If they don't try then the sport can't progress. Alu forks have gone as pretty much as far as they can.

  22. No they aren't new, but this is the production version, not the prototype that we've seen before.

    Films!?

    Watched Brazil last night, Terry Gilliam at his bizarre and very odd best. Some famous faces and a good film if you can get your head around it.
