  1. I need a narrow rim on the rear and seeing as you can't get a fluo 42mm rim, I have to go for the front ones which are 39mm. I'm sure the difference between front and rear rims is more than just the width? After all Echo CNC were also 39mm and they were fine. I'm a rather smooth rider, don't go big, don't do drop gaps. Do you think this would last?
  2. Now that's a real muscle car

    New Keita Vid

    That's stunning. This guy has an amazing style, one that nobody can match. It's such a pity he hardly releases any videos.
  4. What was the point of that? Learn to do it properly and it won't sound unreal to you.
  5. One day I'm going to own one of these. They're by far the nicest cars around, to hell with the fact they're heavy and perform like a 19th century sportscar. And that video is incredibly well made. edit: well ok, before somebody corrects me, they're not heavy, they just have that look

    Day Out

    The riding was very good, nice spot as well. Don't quite understand why half of the film is you attempting the same thing 3 times Other than that - mint.

    Conspiracies

    I remember writing about this in the RSQ thread, but here it goes again. Official images from official websites. Click it Just raise the gamma of the image to a high level. Click it Another one for you to raise the gamma level of. And do the opposite here. That's not how the sun looks like. Apart from that, the exposure would be such that everything else would be black. Off to watch that video.

    Conspiracies

    It's a bit pointless of me to write here seeing as I haven't got the time to watch neither of those videos, but if the moon landing one refers to any official photos from NASA, these can be found on their website and are 100% real (png). Some of these photos when modified (by that I mean changing the level of gamma) really do show up strange shit. More to come, got to dash.
  11. My method (takes aprox. 60 seconds to bleed a brake): If you haven't got the bleed kit, remove the fitting shown below and place it in a hose. Angles: White line is horizontal, you'll need to mount the lever at a slight angle facing downwards Pistons at the same level, as shown on the photo Pistons should be lower than the lever = easier to bleed. With a 2004 or earlier model, you should align the lever so that the hose sticks out vertically, upwards. Bleeding: I use an open syringe because it's much easier to keep air out of the system. As you can see, I've screwed it in to the bleed hole on the lever. It's facing upwards and is supported by a spoke so that once I pour the water in, it won't spill out. The solution I bleed the brake with has 20% alcohol in it, to keep it from freezing. On the photo below, I've already poured it into the syringe but it is not going into the brake because the bleed screw on the pistons is not undone. I've also got plenty more of this fluid on standby to fill the syringe up once it's almost empty. I have now unscrewed the bleed screw and the fluid is slowly being sucked into the system. If it isn't, you'll have to apply slight pressure at the syringe to make it flow. When the syringe is almost empty, poor some more fluid into it. Make sure it's never empty or you'll have air in the system. Having done that, screw the bleed screw into the piston. Now you'll need the syringe to be about half full. Press the brake lever a couple of times. This will get all the trapped air out of the master cylinder and into the syringe, sucking back fluid. I suggest you take your time. Poor the fluid away from the syringe and unscrew it. Make sure you've got fluid overflowing once you screw in the bleed screw. Well done! edit: If something is unclear just ask. I realize that my english is quite bad when it comes to explaining things.
  12. another ot then Of course the prices are going up, there are lots of new estates being built and these are incredibly expensive comparing to the older ones. Obviously it's nowhere near the costs of houses/flats in the UK (or in London for that example ) but a substantial amount if you take into account how much Polish people earn. I'd say the living costs this end are about the same in relation to the earnings as in the UK. As for being able to feed/clothe a family for one year at a cost of a new bike, that's about right if that bike is a Koxx V-MrExpensive
  13. Soak it in WD40, it must help.

    Frogs!

    I bet you can buy crickets on ebay?
  15. Smooth and stylish. Editing was ok, but in places a bit annoying (ie when you sidehop onto the narrow wall). Liked it a lot though.
  16. Very nice! Loving the white stripes and the simplicity. Must be the first Czar which looks nice.
  17. Told her I don't want any more contact with her, that I'm fed up with her and all I want is my mobile back (mainly because I know she hasn't got it and want to be a pain in the arse ). She kind of ignored it and started asking about me, how uni is etc. She's thick and I'm starting to enjoy myself
  18. Not nearly as emo as that sheep, but cooler. [attachmentid=7441][attachmentid=7442]
  19. Not as good as I wanted it to be...
  20. It's pretty hard to treat somebody, who you were in a close relationship with for 4 years, like a friend. Somebody who behaved in the way she did can not be classed as a friend or be treated in this way. I think I'll do as Mr. Spikenipple wrote, just get rid of her. But the thing about women is that if you say no, they'll come back with double impact
  21. I thought I'd never have to post in this thread again but today my ex thought it'd be a good idea to get in touch with me after 3 months of giving no sign of life. The worst thing is, she treated me as if nothing had ever happened. I hate her, I could kill her but I could also fall in love with her again. So, she basically asked how are things my end to which I replied nothing, so then she went on to complaining that if I swear at her in texts (probably my 10th attempt at getting my mobile back, lol), our relationship "won't get any better". WTF?!?!? She completely destroyed all of it, treated me like a piece of shit and now she's saying I'm destroying something? So then she goes onto another subject. She apparently saw me riding trials on Friday. I tell her it's not me, I no longer have a mod and it has hardly any blue parts in it, but she says she knows it was me and I'm looking for a good excuse because I ignored her. Lol #2. Then she says she's got to get up for uni tomorrow, and needs to go to bed, then says see you soon. So basically I think I want no more contact with her. But on the other hand, she WAS a very nice girl. Should I call her and ask her never to contact me again? Or should I just leave it and wait for matters to sort themselves out?
  22. Thank you people Do you think this will fit a KHE chain?
  23. Cool, that sounds mint! Where can I buy one?
  24. This end it's very rarely above 0 in the winter, and yet we cope Dress in black, if there's any sun it will stop you from loosing heat. Dress in many layers, not thick layers - ie. 3 shirts and a jumper, or 2 shirts 2 jumpers. Scalfs are also very good as they will keep the heat under your clothes when you're moving. Wear some drawers or two pairs of trousers, and two pairs of socks. Gloves are the most important though, I use black leather gloves which after having a few years of use have already adapted to the movement of your fingers when riding trials. They're really warm but not thick. Eat a lot because it's energy which will be converted into heat once you start moving. Carry around some hot tea with you, it can do wonders when you're about to freeze so can having a leak. I guess you'd boil to death if you dressed this way with your mild winters
