  1. Pulled my back badly on Saturday. After a day of feeling sorry for myself yesterday I feel loads better today. Went into work although I'd booked it off my manager cancelled the leave so I could stay in. Doesn't sound like a win but it really is as I'd intended the day off to get over the hurt from the comp I didnt attend haha.

    The Angry Thread.

    we were reviewing CVs for our team in the office yesterday, chloe-babez_wuz_ere@hotmail.com won't be joining our team... it's not an ignorant attitude, it's a tiny little diligence test. hopping on the careers train means behaving like a tiny little grown up. i guess the because it's hotmail is a little cruel but i view it as a little juvenile..
  4. theres a fair chance the weather will be abysmal.
  5. hope pro2 singlespeed/trials edition if you want to keep the gears. otherwise a fixed hub with a trials freewheel is the way to go bikes aren't for comfort in trials, i ride a short 20" and i'm 6ft tall... it's a performance affair on these machines.
  6. If you get something else I may take the marino off your hands...
  7. The right magura set up will be fine. I rode a dual disc 24 on the weekend and the wheel qas so flexy I couldn't get on with it personally. I'm quite a static rider though but I imagine the wheel flex is noticeable even if your flowy but still rely on braking for moves..
  8. its pretty hefty paint on those frames, my ashton effect took f**king ages. apply it thick, and leave that sucker over night.

    Hope BMX hubs

    As said before 18-12 on 48ep would feel like72. I rode with an eno this weekend. And after a short period of riding couldn't really truthfully admit to it being any different to a 108... and if the hope is solid who f**king cares? I saw two echo 108s die on the same damn ride yesterday. ..
  10. Hey yall anyone know the geo of the 06 pitbulls? Did they come in long and short? If so what were the respective geos? And how would I distinguish which one I have? Also for extra points anyone know the echo hifi geo? I think its 1085 +55 375 71 but I'd like some confirmation.
  11. had an amazing ride today, had a freak out about where all my money had gone and realised i've been better than usual this month; and my leeds fest ticket is paid; i'm knee deep in spares for bikes. and dual disc 20" is go next month as a result.
  12. super star pedals ***... got the mags on my weenie build and the nano techs on my street machine, both are excellent, great big platforms, grip well, and sealed. V8s are cheap, they can be a little noisy but they last damn well.
  13. Yes is was duncanator! Get the clips on the tf... I enjoyed riding 26 tonight; hope I can start utilising what I acheived on the money hole mod.
  14. We have wenches for that... I either need sales staff to know their shit or look like id give them a good peening... ideally both.
  15. I resent your halfords comments. Dont tar us all with the same brush. They do employ some numpties but what large organisation doesnt? I offer a wicked standard of maintenance in my store...

    Tough mudder

    Not hard to get to 10 km; I only started training in sept didnt run until mid-late october and now I'm happily churning out 10ks in under 45... and I broke my leg prior to this...
  17. Try having your brake lever blades closer to the bars; there should be grub screws that enable this. You can grip better when your hand is more curled in than having your fingers way out... if you gym try rowing with the bar only in your fingers instead of In a fully clasped grip. Also pull ups and riding more. And quit smoking; it reduces your testosterone and increases your recovery time. Both these factors combined will hinder your progress and physical development.
  18. What time we doing this? I yhink wiggy is comming for 11... I'll aim to arrive at the same time. ..
  19. 10k run in 42.12 not bad for an ex chubby kid who broke his leg...
  20. chrome bags arrived woooo. Tyke trial was so much fun on sunday. I regret not competing before! Well excited for the next one!
