  1. Youtube Video -> ">" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350">
  2. That looks like prehistoric concept art of an early 90's CPU heatsink.
  3. Wow! That's some amazing skills there.
  4. Am I the only one here who thinks this is actually a good idea providing we keep it neat and clean? Like the pad review thread, a scammer review thread would help lots of people.
  5. Which Monty's? They make (or made) X-Lite flat bars and the 221Ti risers. If you're using flat bars, perhaps go over to 221Ti risers? Unless you like some extra width, then Trialtechs will be best (740mm).
  6. Echo TR brake mounts probably, they're fairly cheap yet make the brake work so much better.
  7. Completing it will apparently increase your vertical jump by up to 12 inches. I've never gone past week 6 myself, it's just way too exhausting. But if it's designed in such a way that at the end of the 3 month programme you're capable of doing week 12, it must work. I'm doing it now, decided to complete at least 1 month before going out for my first ride this year.
  8. What about XC or road? That should be a good way to get it used to physical effort?
  9. Those are Echo TR rims. Nice bike, good to see the old stuff still being used and going strong.
  10. I wouldn't care about this delay at all if it was just a pair for me. But there's about 15 people waiting for their pads and other stuff over here and I'm the one having to explain to them why they've been waiting for weeks and can't even get an ETA. He can't cope with batches either so that Tarty arrangement wouldn't work.
  11. Actually 2 months. Just looked up our emails in Outlook. Sent the order out on the 14/01/09. This kind of behaviour really drives me up the wall and makes me want to smash something. Seriously Steve, if you read this - consider selling HSB to somebody more competent than yourself. Having a family and a full time job is no excuse for this kind of service, none of your customers give a shit about your activities outside Heatsink Bikes.
  12. This could help. You could also wait for him to release the new Urban hubs. Deng seems to learn on his mistakes so there's a good chance that the new freehubs will be better.
  13. I'm 6ft, rode a lot of different frames and found that the length had nothing to do with how comfortable it was. It was just a matter of preference, for a time i liked long frames and rode those, then went over to short stuff like the 221Ti, then back to long bikes. 6ft is fairly average, if you were 6'5 or taller you could start worrying about choosing a frame which fits you.
  14. When you think you're ready to put a lot of strain on it, a good way to buff it up will be to do Air Alert. Look it up in Google. 3-4 weeks of that and it'll start getting strong.
  15. Dear lord Is that a production car? Looks like a predecessor to that mad mid engined Clio V6.
  16. That dropout must fall off sooner or later? Nice coulor scheme, looks like a Koxx.
  17. Loved it, great skills and pretty interesting editing too. Liked the club thing a lot too.
  18. Here's your picture. Don't show it to anybody else. I'm lead to believe that the above description is frequently used in nightclubs to make owners sound like they have a Ferrari. Shame that it doesn't match the looks too well.
  19. The F430 must be around 1000x more expensive. But it's charming of you to think it's a Ferrari.
  20. It's red, rear wheel drive, it's made by an Italian manufacturer with a name beginning with F and the model name consists of 3 digits and a letter. What could it be? Incentive: whoever guesses it first will publicly receive a picture of this car with two ladies standing nearby.
  21. Wheelbuilding is something you should learn to do if you're going to ride trials. No better way to start than build your own wheels. The first few builds will be fairly difficult and will most certainly take you a long time but once you get the hang of it you'll probably enjoy it. Sheldon Brown's wheel building guide
  22. Offer me an Enzo and I'll turn it down for a E39 M5 in perfect condition. That's my idea of a supercar, nothing even comes close in my opinion. But yeah, lets start a post a pic of you supercar thread because changes scare people.
  23. Thank you guys, that's been a great help. Now it's time to decide if a short or long will be better Ads, didn't you weigh these frames yourself and find that they are lighter than the claimed Echo weights? I think the difference was around 40g, does that apply to all frames?
  24. I think that's a problem with Vimeo itself, it happened to me and quite a few of my mates as well.
