  1. I've only bought 2 frames new, 2 second hand cheap and the rest i've been given.
  2. Dunno mate i'm living in Plymouth atm as i'm workin at Devonport with the submarines til march. Head down!

  3. Hope Mono Trial, 160 on a mod should be fine. Don't think there's any more to say, just simply the brake to get for the rear of a mod.
  4. To be honest mate i'd sell your King hub it's not overly light for a front disc hub, fine for an MTB but if you're wanting a nice light front wheel it won't help. Get an Echo TR hub or see if you can find a cheap Try-all disc hub.
  5. Aren't you running a Hope Pro 2 hub on the front Si? Get a lighter front hub and as Nick has said a TT or a Rockman/Try-all hole front rim. Saying that Joe is loving his Dob rims, but then he is a smidge smoother than you
  6. See i used to suffer really badly with it and found setting my brakes further out and obviously using them less helped loads.
  7. Tartybikes forged Stem, Ti bolts reading the spec list for the win
  8. The Chris King HD I ran in mine was fine

    Films!?

    Watched RED the other night, was awesome, thought it was hilariously tongue in cheek, followed by Zombieland which happns to be my favourite film of this year.
  10. Compared to today the weather is supposed to be all good, so up for this. Might try and get off early
  11. Yeah they're 45mm rake rather than 35mm and they're 10mm longer axle to crown.
  12. Enjoyed that, although too much black and white. Good choice on tune
  13. Do it mate be damn good to have ride/drink sessions with you again!
  14. May have a mate who will need a room for 4 months if thats any good to you? Works with me.
  15. I know Tom I don't know if i'm getting on with it totally yet; we'll see.
  16. If you're about after 4 then I will be about.
  17. I'm more that capable of keeping one working fine, it's just damn inconvenient when you're in the middle of a ride and it's covered in shit and won't move. But you've also missed my point that the whole getting off, readjusting your post for every climb or decent breaks the flow of a ride and is more of a inconvenience than any bit of maintenance, which I'm generally more than competent at sorting.
  18. Was super sweet dude
  19. No idea why the prices are different, but the geometry and weights are different so surely you'd suit the one you prefer. Regards to shipping costs, sling them an email? They will most likely have an account with a shipping company in Canada and give you a quote form them.
